Illustrator 10 Saving Character in Character Window

I am using a PC with XP Pro. Every time I change files or even work on the same file, the character in the character box reverts to Myriad Pro and 12 pt. This requires constantly changing it to Optimum 8 pt which I am using in the book I am writing. This did not occur in Illustrator 9.

What Kurt said, with two additions:
1. Whichever font is the default, the font in use should not revert to it. Therefore I would suggest your moving the folder holding the aiprefs file to the Desktop and changing the default font in a fresh one. You can see the instructions for both here, in the first and second hints: http://www.bugge.com/Family-and-friends/Illy/illy.html
2. Especially if it is a long book, I hope you are creating the cover in Illy and writing in another application.

  • Character set on windows

    Hello All,
    Please i need help on how to confirm the character set on windows. i have tried going through registry >HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\NLS\CodePage\ ( nothing like ACP here)
    Under code page i have the following:
    EUDCCodeRange
    Language
    Language Groups
    from command prompt if i run:
    H:\>chcp
    Active code page: 437
    Please what character set is ACP 437 equivalent to?
    Response required urgently#
    Thanks

    We have noticed that the application is not interpreting the request strings in the correct character encoding. Can you be a bit more specific? What problem, exactly, are you having?
    So please how do i confirm if i am on WE8ISO8859P1 or WE8MSWIN1252' on the client side(windows)Are you asking what the NLS_LANG should be for Windows? Or for command-line DOS? Or something else?
    In the same NLS_LANG FAQ I linked to earlier, there is a section on [configuring NLS_LANG for Windows and DOS|http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/htdocs/nls_lang%20faq.htm#_Toc110410552]. I don't believe that it is possible for a Windows GUI to be using the ISO 8859-1 character set.
    Browse the following registry entry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\NLS\CodePage\
    There you have (all the way down) an entry with as name ACP. The value of ACP is your current GUI Codepage, for the mapping to the Oracle name. Since there are many registry entries with very similar names, please make sure that you are looking at the right place in the registry.Justin

  • Trying to read from a socket character by character

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with reading from a socket character by character. In the code shown below I try and read each character, and then write it to a file. The information sent to a socket sent from a file, and EOF is marked with character of ascii code 28 (file separator). However using BufferedReader.read() I get -1 forever. Is it reading only the last character to have been sent to the socket?
    As a side note, if I use readLine() (making sure the socket is sent a newline at end of msg) I can get the message fine. However, I want to be able to receive a message with 0 or many newlines in it (basically contents of a text file), so I want to avoid the readLine() method.
    Any help at all is appreciated,
    Colm
    CODE SNIPPET:
    try
    serverSocket = new ServerSocket(listenToPort);
    System.out.println("Server waiting for client on port " + serverSocket.getLocalPort());
    while(true)
    inSocket = serverSocket.accept();
    System.out.println("New connection accepted " + inSocket.getInetAddress() + ":" + inSocket.getPort());
    input = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inSocket.getInputStream()));
    fileOutput = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(outputFilename));
    System.out.println("Ready to write to file: " + outputFilename);
    //receive each character and output it to file until file separator arrives
    while(!eof)
    inCharBuf = input.read();
    System.out.print(inCharBuf);
    //check for file separator (ASCII code 28)
    if (inCharBuf == 28) eof = true;
    //inChar = (char) inCharBuf;
    fileOutput.write(inCharBuf);
    System.out.println("Finished writing to file: " + outputFilename);
    inSocket.close();
    catch (IOException e)
    System.out.println("IO Error with serverSocket: " + e);
    System.exit(-1);
    }(tabbing removed as it was messing up formatting)

    My guess is that the code that is writing to the
    socket did not flush it. You said in one case you
    could read it (via readln) if the writer was writing
    lines (writeln flushes, I believe). Are you writing
    the exact same data to the socket in both tests?woo hoo, I hadn't flushed the buffers alright!
    for anyone with similar problems, I was missing this from my write-to-socket method:
    output.flush();
    where output was the BufferedWriter I had created to write to the socket.
    Thanks a lot for pointing it out!

  • How to get Illustrator 10 to run on windows 7 ultimate and not in XP mode?

    I have been running Illustrator 10 on windows 7 pro with no problems. I upgraded to a new computer with windows 7 Ultimate and Illustrator will only run in XP mode. It will not open my existing files stating that they were created in a newer version.
    How can Illustrator be run in windows 7 Ultimate?

    Actually, if you go to the program .exe file (usually in Program files(x86)\Adobe\Illustrator 10\Support Files\Contents\Windows).
    Right click on it and select properties.
    Select the Compatibility tab.
    In the section "Compatibility mode".
    Check the box "Run this program ...."
    From the dropdown list select Windows 7
    In the "Settings" section
    Check "Disable visual themes" and "Disable desktop composition"
    This will allow Illustrator to run normally in Windows 7 Pro and Ultimate 64bit systems.

  • Is Adobe Illustrator 8.0 compatible with Windows 7?

    Is Adobe Illustrator 8.0 compatible with Windows 7? It will not install automatically and when I try to manually run the setup exe I get an error message.

    mcalomeris,
    At least according to this website, you should be able to run older applications/versions in XP mode in Windows 7:
    http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/reviews/2010/01/windows-xp-mode.ars
    Here is an excerpt:
    Virtualizing the problem
    With Windows 7, however, Redmond has provided a solution to the problem: Windows XP Mode. Windows XP Mode uses virtualization technology to let applications running on a virtualized copy of Windows XP show up in the Windows 7 Start menu and on the Windows 7 desktop.
    Windows XP Mode is a downloadable add-on for Windows 7 Professional, Ultimate, and Enterprise. It has two parts: the virtualization software itself, and a disk image containing a pre-installed, activated, licensed copy of Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3 preinstalled, complete with the glorious Internet Explorer 6.
    The virtualization software is the latest iteration of Virtual PC. Although you wouldn't know it from the download page, this is available for any version of Windows 7 aside from Starter. You wouldn't know it, because selecting a version of Windows other than those previously listed removes the option to download Virtual PC. It shouldn't, though; it should only remove the option to download the Windows XP Mode image.
    The download link is here:

  • Start Menu Configuration not being saved using BootCamp in Windows 7

    On a couple nearly identical MacBook Pros (ordered and built within the last couple months) I've encountered an issue where my Start Menu configuration is not being saved using BootCamp in Windows 7. Only the 64 bit version was tested, I don't have a 32 bit handy.
    "Stickying" icons on the top of the shortcuts seems to hold, but changing the display to small icons, adding "administrative tools", menu displays from opening folders to showing lists, or even just telling it to not highlight newly installed programs are lost on a reboot. The changes do appear to work at first, but again, are lost on reboot.
    Fwiw I'm using the machine in an Active Directory environment. If you need any additional information or further details just ask.

  • Efficiency of reading/writing files character-by-character

    I've been assuming that when I do a file "open for access," that among the housekeeping functions set up behind the scenes, there is some sort of buffer created, the size of which is somehow related to the logical sector size of the disc in question, so that reading or writing short pieces of text, or even single characters, doesn't cause independent physical read/write actions at the disc drive.
    Does anyone know if this is true or false? Maybe the question would be clearer posed another way. Suppose I set up a loop to read or write 1024 characters, sequentially, but one at a time. Obviously the loop will require much more time to execute than a singe read or write statement calling for 1K of text all at once. But will there be significantly more activity at the disc drive itself? Will the data be read or written on 1024 successive spins of the platter, or will it be buffered down to one spin, or maybe a couple, depending on the exact location of sector boundaries and so on?
    Thanks.

    Thanks for this. I was sure some such facility was in operation, but I couldn't find anything explicit on the question. I have a task in which I'm trying to convert what looks like incredibly badly formed XML application files into properly tagged and well-formed XML so that I can then get them through a well-designed XML parser. To decode these utter shambles requires decision logic that goes nearly character-by-character. One tutorial page I found on Applescript file I/O suggested that reading/writing character-by-character was inherently inefficient, which I can see that it is, I just wanted to make sure the inefficiency didn't go all the way down to the mechanics of kicking the disc for every single character. The description in the tutorial was ambiguous, and a little disconcerting.
    The tutorial also suggested an alternative strategy of reading an entire file at once into a string and then working with the string. But my files are megabytes long, and I wonder how efficient operations are on megabyte strings, presuming there isn't a limit on string length. Short of trying to do some complex adaptive algorithm, which I might never get working right, I'm pretty sure that keeping to the KISS principal, and just going character-by-character, is a near-optimal strategy in my case.
    Cheers.

  • Problem processing character by character

    Okay, I'm not looking for anyone to do an entire method or anything, but I'm just wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a problem I'm having that involves inputting a string into a method that would then go through it character by character and process it... it's obvious what its supposed to do when you look at a sample input...
    you'd input something like this :
    "1+5*6/2-3"
    just a straight left to right processing... no order of operations or anything. Any suggestions would be appreciated :) thanks!

    Look at the charAt() method.
    String s = //whatever
    for(int i=0; i<s.length(); i++)
         char c = s.charAt(i);
    }

  • Comparing character-by-character

    I'm playing around with a Java implementation of a ternary search tree. (See http://www.ddj.com/documents/s=921/ddj9804a/9804a.htm)
    By its very nature, a TST must compare its keys character-by-character.
    I've got a base implementation I am happy with, and am now looking at SortedSet and SortedMap implementations, which are naturals for a TST. In order to fully support either interface, I should support creation of a SortedSet or SortedMap with a Comparator specified.
    I just want to confirm my understanding, after studying the API documentation and poking around in the API source code, that I can safely use CollationElementIterator to compare two strings one character at a time.
    Specifically, the TST stores an inserted key internally as one character per tree node. When searching, a search key is compared to nodes one character at a time, and the tree is descended according to whether the comparison yields less than, equal or greater than. I am expecting that I can store the int value of each collation element in the nodes, then compare them to the int values of each collation element for a search key. (I do not expect to reconstruct the string from the int values--the original string is referenced at its terminal node. Nor do I care in the least if the number of int values does not match the number of characters in the text string, or if they are in a different sequence than the corresponding characters.)
    If my understanding is correct, I won't have to worry about skipping over characters in a string or swapping character positions--that will be taken care of as the iterator steps through the string. Nor will I have to worry about characters that alter the sort priority of other characters. This would be quite nice.
    I would appreciate confirmation (or correction) from somone who is familiar with the classes java.text.RuleBasedCollator, java.text.CollationKey and java.text.CollationElementIterator. With preference, this would be someone who has actually used them in an application.
    How I plan to test this thing is, of course, another problem...

    The answer is "yes." CollationElementIterator is intended to be used exactly as I understood from the API documentation.
    I found my confirmation in this article:
    http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-text-searching.html
    and validation of the algorithm in this Unicode Technical Standard:
    http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr10/
