Internal (menu, help screen) font problems

Hello--
OK, I am using SuSE 9.3 Linux on a Pentium 4 processor with xorg's X setup using a raptor version I just downloaded last week.
I had no trouble configuring fonts for my SQL worksheet etc as I wanted, but there is nothing for me to configure the actual fonts used internally by the IDE. Mostly they're OK as it, but when I chose a Help topics --ick! WAY too small and I can't get them to go any larger. I tried feeding in a "java property" in the laucher.sh and this didn't help either. I had used an earlier version of raptor (maybe a month or so ago) and I don't remeber having this problem.
Please help! Thanks.

Hi,
What you are observing is a common problem called FOUT (flash of unstyled text). The forum post http://forums.adobe.com/message/5402383#5402383 outlines a technique to control FOUT, but it involves some knowledge of coding (CSS).
That said, I am not aware of any v7.1 change that would cause FOUT to appear now. Is there a chance you hadn't noticed it before, or handn't tried the browser you are currently using?
Thanks,
Abhishek

Screen Font Problem

I just loaded a new version of Freehand MX and I downloaded
the updater to 11.02 and am having problems since inception that
the screen fonts in the Object Window do not display properly. This
is for all the properties and settings in the Object Window.... It
is very strange the rest of the screen fonts are fine.

Are you on Mac or Windows? On some Windows systems, panel
fonts display
poorly when system screen resolution is not set to 96 ppi.
Perhaps deleting the Preferences file would solve the
problem. On a Mac find

Hi...
Troubleshooting help here > Font problems and management in OS X

When I'm using Safari, acasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! ???

When I'm using Safari, ocasionally the menu bar just disappears. I'm running the latest version of Lion and the latest version of Safari. This is not a full screen app problem. I have multiple windows open. This happens all the time! Firefox is fine! What the ****? Please help!

Right, like I'm trying to say, THERE IS NO SAFARI MENU bar. Example: I have multiple applications open, I click on a Photoshop window, the correct menu or title bar or whatever changes. Every other application window I click on brings up the correct "whatever" bar. If I click on the desktop, the "Finder Bar" shows up.
Everythiing else, BUT SAFARI, works the same way since OS X came out. This is ridiculous.
I'm getting the vibe that Apple is trying to get rid of the finder.... this is the way wrong direction.

Fonts on help screen

Hi,
I know this sounds very odd, but suddenly the font on the
Dreamweaver 8 help screens has gotten so small I can hardly read
them! I'd say they're about 6 pt. The index on the left side of the
help screen is fine, it's just the body of the text on the right
side of the help screens. These are the std. help screens within
Dreamweaver, not anything I authored. If I print them to a pdf file
it's the same... tiny.
I've tried things like Ctrl + and rebooting with no
improvement. It's not happening in other products such as Image
Ready or Photoshop CS2. If someone can tell me how to get back to a
readable size font I'd be very grateful.
Thanks!

You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.
*Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
*NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/

FCPX crashing when text inspector open, I suspect a font problem. Help!

I have encountered a problem where FCPX will crash whenever text propertys should show in the inspector tab (Text can be edited when the inspector is closed).
After searching google, this appears to be a common problem. Everyone seems to say the symptoms indicate a font problem, which I suspected. However after using font book to verify my fonts, getting rid of 3rd party installed fonts and then messing up my fonts library
terribly (still trying to figure out what exactly I did). I seem to have no luck.
Has a solution be discovered yet? I need to be able to change my font settings not just edit text! Please help!

Isn't that just the way things work. After working on this problem for many hours and several days I post here and within a few more hours it works itself out. <embarrassed>
I used font book to turn off all fonts but the ones the OS needs to run, and it turns out somehow I ended up with duplicates of those ones. After a struggle to get rid of the duplicates I also deleted FXPs preference files. Now I can edit the text in the properties/info pane again!

Strange system font problem

Hello,
I have the following problem for 2 days now:
http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/1462/bild1.png
I did not install anything. I tried to delete font caches but it did not help.
I re-installed the system but that did not change anything. After resetting the PRAM the problem was solved. At least for some hours, but now the problem appeared again.
When I do a reboot, strange white lines appear over the grey background and the Apple Logo, then the screen turns blue, the cursor consists of white lines too and nothing more happens. After several tries to reboot the Mac is running again, but the font problem still exists.
First I thought of a graphic card problem, but it seems that this font problem only concerns system prefernces and system applications.
I have no idea what to do now, so please help me.

Hi "Apfelkrautsalami"
Font caching information is stored on a per-user basis in
/private/var/folders
I have no idea if it'll help, but you could try this:
- Open a Terminal and do
*sudo rm -rf -- /private/var/folders/??*
- Restart your machine
(Note 1: The '--' prevents rm to think that folders like '-5' are options)
(Note 2: The '??' will match any two-letter directory. I didn't want to say '*')

Can anyone help me, is there any problems in the setting of my workstation?

The problem is that your postscript file is using fonts Distiller cannot find. You have the list of fonts that Distiller wants. Locate them and notify Distiller by using the menu item Settings -> Font Locations

Help! Fonts unreadable the Symbol A in a box!

All of the characters for fonts for icons are now the letter "A" in a box.
All drop down menus as well!
I'm suspecting this has something to do with a software update I was NOT supposed to do... I have a Mac Mini non-Intel.

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions!
For help with Fonts:
If fonts are not displayed as expected when you open documents or you cannot open documents, it's possible fonts have been corrupted. You can validate fonts to confirm they are still safe to use, and remove any corrupted fonts you find.
Take care not to remove system fonts, located in /System/Library/Fonts; removing system fonts could cause some applications to quit unexpectedly.
To validate fonts:
Open Font Book and select one or more installed fonts to check.
Choose File > Validate Font.
In the Font Validation window, review the fonts listed for warnings or errors. Use the pop-up menu to display warnings and errors separately, if necessary.
For fonts with warnings or errors, click the disclosure triangle next to the font to see which validation rules show errors.
To remove a corrupted font, click the checkbox next to the font. Make sure fonts you want to keep are not checked. Then click the Remove Checked button.
You can also use the Console utility to troubleshoot problems with installed fonts. In the console.log window, type "font" or a font name (such as "Arial") in the Filter field to find font-related log messages.
You can validate font files before installing the fonts. To do so, in Font Book choose File > Validate Files. Browse to and select a font file to validate and click Open. Font Book displays the Font Validation window and indicates whether it found problems with the font.

Solution for font problem using iTunes store (iTunes 9 @ Vista)

For all those of you who experience font problems rendering the iTunes store (I got partly jibberish many letters rendered as squares). For me it turned out that
my Arial fonts were corrupted (there were other files with the same font names residing in my Windows font directory). Deleting all Arial and installing them new from another Vista machine solved the problem.
I got to analyze the problem as follows: the rendering of the iTunes 9 store is done by the webkit. This reads a list of available fonts with files names from the registry and stores it in the file C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\WebKit\FontsList.plist (do not edit, it is generated each time you start iTunes anew). If you compare (e.g., using diffdaff) this file to the one of a Vista computer that does not show the font problem, you pretty soon realize which font family might cause the problem for you. For me it was Arial (which is used by Windows as a substitution for the Helvetica fonts BTW).

You can try to download items one at a time to get rid of this error message. Follow these steps for such:
1) Open iTunes.
2) From the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Check for Purchases.
3) Enter your account name and password, then click Check. Your purchases should begin downloading.
4) Under the STORE section on the left, click Downloads.
5) Click the Pause All button in the lower-right corner. This will temporarily pause all of your downloads.
6) To resume only one of the downloads, click the refresh button that appears to the right of one of the paused downloads.
If that doesn't help, you may want to consider performing the following to be sure no software is conflicting with iTunes:
1.) Disable all anti-virus software you may have running
2.) Disable all firewall software you may have running
3.) Disable all web acceleration software you may have running
4.) If you are connected to the internet via an internet router, please disconnect it and connect directly via your broadband modem
Hope this helps =)

Appleworks crashes when using "Font Menu in Actual Fonts" feature

In the past I was able to use the pull-down menu for "Font Menu in Actual Fonts" feature. Recently I found that this no longer was working, as I had trashed the preferences folder and the plist preference file for Appleworks. When I reselected the "Font Menu in Actual Fonts" item in the General preferences and selected OK, the program unexpectedly quit. This happened repeatedly, even after repairing permissions and pre-bindings, trashing the current preferences for appleworks, validating the fonts in the Font Book program, trashing other preferences, etc. It turns out that sometimes I get past the saving step for the preferences in Appleworks, but when I go to the pull-down menu for "Fonts", on the first try, I get a viewing of the fonts in their actual format, which crashes then if I am scrolling down through the fonts list. On the next try, I crash immediately when I highlight the fonts pull down menu. These symptoms are repeatable. Is it that I have too many fonts in my Font Book list? I have 148 listed fonts for my user account in Font Book. Also the font for Equation Editor named "MT Extra Plain:001.001" that I believe is associated with Appleworks is listed as having minor problems by Font Book in the name usability table and in the name table structure. If I delete the equation editor fonts this does not solve the problem. Similarly, If I de-install Appleworks, including preferences, and reinstall it, this also does not solve the problem. Are you able to help me stabilize Appleworks so I can use the "Font Menu in Actual Fonts" feature again? Thank you.
Sincerely,
Wilson

I looked for this font, yet it is not in any of the Fonts folders, either in the Macintosh HD/Library/Fonts location or in the user account/Library/Fonts folder which I accessed as you indicated via the "Go to Folder" menu). I do find however using EasyFind a file named Bauhaus 93.0_B8B8.ATSD in the following location: /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/ ATS.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Fontinfo/. Information on this file indicates that Bauhaus 93.0_B8B8.ATSD is a Unix Executable File. Is this a needed part of the system, and should I delete this?
For your further information, my version of Appleworks is 6.2.9, and per another posting by ptr66 Nov 3, 2008 (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8397234#8397234), not related directly to this posting, I also have disabled the Autosave and Recent items functions in the General preferences of Appleworks, which that posting indicated stabilize the program. These had no effect. Thank you for your input.
Sincerely,
Wilson

Hi, can anyone help with the problem I am having with pro book 4440s? I can't boot into windows 7.

Hi, can anyone help with the problem I am having with pro book 4440s?

Hi,
If you don't already have one, use another PC to create a Windows 7 Rescue CD. Download the relevant ISO from the links below.
Windows 7 32bit
Windows 7 64bit
You should use an application such as ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a CD - a guide on using ImgBurn to write an ISO to a disc is Here. Once created, or if you already have this, tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. Insert the Rescue CD. Select Boot options ( usually f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and hit enter. You may also get a prompt to 'Press any key to continue' - do this if asked.
When loaded, select Repair Your Computer and choose the Command Prompt. When this loads, enter the following commands and hit enter after each one - include spaces as shown.
Bootrec.exe
bcdedit /export C:\BCD_Backup
c:
cd boot
attrib bcd -s -h -r
ren c:\boot\bcd bcd.old
bootrec /RebuildBcd
bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
Remove the Rescue CD and try rebooting the notebook.

DP-K
