Humor-Sans: a font in the style of xkcd.

Hello Archers,
Certain deities failed to strike me down for providing Satanic themes for Gnome (well, gtk2). To provoke them further, I now aurified humor-sans, the xkcd font lookalike presented by xkcdsucks:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=58274
Please enjoy responsibly.

This is the font. Interesting but too crude to use frequently in my scanlations. But I think I can use it for things like mad-talk and such

Fonts in the WEB FONTS GROUP: Are those the only *safe* fonts?

I notice that iWeb allows me to choose from a variety of fonts. There are some that I like (Zapfino and Optima) but they are not in the category labeled WEB FONTS. I always believed that if you do not choose a WEB font, then your viewer may not see the font in the style that you choose because it may not be resident in that viewer's browser.
SO, QUESTION:
If I choose Zapfino or Optima, which are NOT in the WEB fonts group, do I run a risk that my viewers will possibly not see the text in Zapfino or Optima?
If I choose fonts from the WEB fonts group, can I be assured that this is what a viewer will see?

Most template pages already have a box to enter text
into OK
If you type in that no problems - but as soon as you
change one word in that big text box to a non-web
friendly font the entire text is converted to an
image.
So type all the text in the text box with a
web-friendly font - then when you come to the non-web
friendly font part click on the T (ext) button in the
toolbar at the bottom in iWeb and it will create a
new text box on the screen.
Type your non-web friendly font text in this box.
Then when you publish the big text box will be text,
but the non-web friendly font text box will be
converted to an image meaning your site guests get to
see the site text as you intended and your site isn't
slowed down by loading a big image of text which
isn't required
hope that's clearer
cheers
Jason
Hmm. OK. I'm printing this out or I'll never remember how to do it. Thank you for explaining this, Jason.

Hi Poojith
Not sure if this would solve your requirment but just in case might be helpful:
1. We can mix up the HTML and HTMLB components in the JSP Page. However, can access only the HTMLB components in the controller. The following link refers to what customizations are offered by the HTMLB framework:
[http://www.sapdesignguild.org/resources/htmlb_guidance/]
2. Another option would be to use AbstractPortalComponents or a simple web app if that's feasible. (where custom UI themes, css and layout are more in control of the developers.)
Thanks

How to change the font size and style on run time

dear all
i try to change the font style and font size on runtime. I did the following:
1- i created an item(:font_size) in which i will write the size of the font for the the other item ('customer_name')
2 on the post_change trigger for 'font_size' i write this code
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('customer_name',FONT_size,(:font_size);
i write 12 then then font size changed , then i write 18 , the size does not change. and when i write any value , no change happens. I do not know why
the second problem is how to change the font style
i made three checkbooks (bold,italic,underline)
on the trugger when_checkbox_checked i write
     IF :BOLD = 'B' THEN
     SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('N_SAMPLE',FONT_STYLE,'BOLD');
     ELSE
SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('N_SAMPLE',FONT_STYLE,'REGULAR');
     END IF;
no change happend at all.
please help

Hi friend,
it's a really really strange tip... May be it's a Forms bug? I've tried with set_item_property..and.. you're right, it doesn't work..
So.. you can try making this:
- create a visual attribute with an specific font size....
- use the
SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY('block.item',CURRENT_RECORD,VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,'you_visual_attribute');
and call it from psot-change....
It works
Hope it helps,
Jose.

How can I get the TOC to display ALWAYS in a Sans-Serif Font in Linux/Firefox.

I've created my help project in RH9. When it displays in Linux/Firefox, the fonts in the topics are fine, but the TOC displays in Times New Roman. Is there a setting in RH9 that I need to use to keep this from happening?

Hi,
Did you change the setting in the skin? What font have you set for the TOC? Perhaps you set a font that is not available on linux so make sure that you use a web safe font. For more information on web safe fonts, see http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_websafe_fonts.asp
You can also tinker with your output files. In whthost.js, you can amend the CSS that RoboHelp uses for the TOC. you can add a rule for a sans-serif font the browser can fall back on. See http://www.wvanweelden.eu/webhelp_output_files/whthostjs for more information on the whthost.js file.

How do you edit the style and fonts of the twitter feed in MuseCC

Using more than one web font in the same text field

I know I can do something like this when calling more than one weight in a web font:
sym.$('copy').html('<span style="font-weight: 700;">Adobe</span> | About Us')
And the word Adobe will be bolder than About Us. But what about using more than one font in the same text field? I tried this:
sym.$('copy').html('<span style="font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;">UHLIG</span> | About Us')
Now that doesn't work and I get a SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list
I then tried
sym.$('copy').html('<span style="font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif;">UHLIG</span> | About Us')
and the text rendered but whatever was selected in the font menu was what got displayed.
Is there a way around this to display two different fonts, web fonts or not, in the same field?

Hey, ladobeugm-
One thing to note is that you probably need to escape the quotes in your span tag. What you have is an issue with quotation marks - for instance, all JavaScript sees is <span style="font-family: in your first string, and only sees <span style="font-family: " in your second. Play around with escaping to see if you can get your span to work.
Hope that helps,
-Elaine

How can I combine one font with many styles to show up as one font

How can I combine one font with many styles to show up as one font? I have quite a few fonts, that instead of showing up as a single font with different font styles (bold, bolditalic, semibold, light....) each style shows up in the fonts dropdown menu as a separate font. Any way I can fix this?
Another font question, is there any way to group my fonts in the dropdown menu according to different categories such as 'favorite san serif fonts', or 'script fonts'?

So your saying if it wasn't set up that way be the font creator there is nothing I can do. That's a shame.
Most of the fonts that do this were free fonts, such as Walkway.
But I do have some fonts (hebrew fonts) that I purchased that do the same thing.

[solved] Bad glyph alternates using "Nimbus Sans L" font in Firefox

Hello,
I am observing strange font rendering in Firefox when text is displayed in the Nimbus Sans L font-family. For example, the selected font on duckduckgo.com is Nimbus Sans L on my machine. Any query result that contains "No" or "TM", inluding inside words such as Notebook or HTML will be substituted for № and ™, or №tebook and H™L. This is a nuisance. It does not happen in LibreOffice with the same font and the same text.
Using Firefox's web console, I edited the CSS and took the following screenshots. On the left is the CSS left alone, and on the right, I removed Nimbus Sans L from the font-family property:
I also wrote this test html file and rendered it in Firefox.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Font test</title>
<style type="text/css">
p {
font-family: "Nimbus Sans L";
p.a {
font-family: FreeSans;
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>A test</p>
<p>No Note HTML</p>
<p class="a">No Note HTML</p>
</body>
</html>
<screenshot>
</screenshot>
I ran out of hypotheses. I haven't found anything helpful in:
infinality/fontconfig files
Firefox's about:config
This: https://hacks.mozilla.org/2010/11/firef … e-support/
and of course, google, ArchWiki, ArchForums, etc.
Thank you for any support and have a good day.
Alexandre.

The sub-pixel rendering is fine. It's rather the automatic replacement of glyphs in the wrong context that is bothering.

Interestingly, ligatures are happening automatically with FreeSans for ff, ffl and such, but not ae or oe. There was no such ligatures with Nimbus Sans L.

Which font does the Dictionary app use?

I've got a new Mac Pro, and the font for the Dictionary app is incorrect - it's a sans serif, and pretty ugly, whereas before it was a much more attractive serif font. I did a clean install, so unless I've got a corrupted font, there's no reason why this should happen. Does anyone know which font the Dictionary app should use?
Thanks,
Kirk
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hi, Kirk.
On my Mac, the primary font for Dictionary is the Baskerville family of fonts, which are serif fonts. The font itself is the Baskerville.dfont file in the Macintosh HD > LIbrary > Fonts directory. It also employs Helvetica Neue, a sans-serif font, for some elements of definitions.
Dictionary does not have a preference for changing the default font, just the font size. The actual specification of Baskerville is done in the Default.csss file for Dictionary, in the Resources subfolder of the Contents folder of the Dictionary.app bundle (Control-click Dictionary and select "Show Package Contents"). Dictionary is actually a stripped-down Web browser and its documents are formatted in HTML. The Default.css file is the Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) used for formatting the appearance of Dictionary definitions, including the fonts to use by default.
If you don't have the fonts specified in its CSS, it would substitute other fonts.
Good luck!

How do I add a new font to the list?

In "Tools/Options/Content/Advanced" how do I add a new font to the list? I have "Comic Sans MS" listed for one of the options, but the drop-down menu does not contain that option, so I can't select it for another font option.

Thanks for your reply.
As to your question: No, of course I wouldn't scroll down, it's in alphabetical order, so why would "C" for Comic Sans MS be anywhere but between B and D on the list?
Now a question for you: If person or group was going to alphabetize a list and then break it down into sublists, why would he, she, they not include headers for each portion and maybe even indent each font name, so a person might have a chance of getting the drift?
Also, how do you add new fonts to the list?

Different fonts in the same field

Is it possible to format a single field with two different fonts. I have concatenated two database columns to get this field. But I want different fonts for the two columns. I could achieve this by using a format trigger and placing some html tags. But this solution only works if the output is in HTML style sheets. It does not work if I want the output to be in PDF. Does anybody know how to achieve it in PDF? Is it possible at all (from what I have seen it isn't). I will be grateful for any help in this direction.
Thanks
Janaki

Hi!
Try this:
Let say you have scott/tiger and emp-table and want to concatenate and print ename and job in the same field but with different fonts.
1. In the Database model you have the columns seperate as usual.
2. Create a boileplate text field and put &ENAME &JOB in this field.
3. Select &ENAME and set the right font to it, set another font for &JOB.
4. Run and test. This should work...

Where do I find the Style pop-up menu so I can choose mailing labels?

I've set out below the Help item for printing mailing labels from Address Book but I don't get any Style option with my printer which is a reasonably up to date HP 1200 Laser. Have I got the settings wrong somewhere
To print mailing labels:
Select All or a group in the Group column, or select specific contacts in the Name column.
If contacts in the group you selected have multiple addresses, you can choose which address to use for each contact.
Selecting addresses for group members
Choose File > Print.
Choose Mailing Labels from the Style pop-up menu, and then set other options:
Layout: Choose a type of label from the Page pop-up menus. Select Define Custom to set the page margins and the gutter space between labels, and to specify how many labels to print on a page.
Label: Choose which addresses to use from the Addresses pop-up menu. Choose the order in which to print the labels using the “Print in” pop-up menu. Add a small graphic to the labels by clicking the Image Set button; change the font by clicking the Font Set button.
Click Print.

Assuming you are in Address Book, you choose the records you want to print and then the File/Print menu selection.
If the printer menu comes up with only the name of the printer and "Presets" dropdown choices, you click on the arrow to the right of the printer name to expand the print menu. Make sure the box below the pages to print is showing "Address Book" and you will see the "Style" below it.

Anyone know how to change the default font for the new pages? Apparently it does not even come up when I search the 'Help' section of Pages. The level of incompetence in this new version seems breathtaking

I cannot find how to change the default font in the new Pages. It does not appear in the Help area when I search for it. I am never sing Helvetica for my standard documents and cannot seem to change it. What am I missing? And why does Pages help not have an easy answer?
dan

You open a blank template and change the font to you liking. Remember to also get all the styles changed with new font. Then Save As Template. Now you have a template with the font you like.
