Is it possible to make the text in these forum webpages darker?

Thanks.

Something I do that helps readability is block the site use.typekit.com by an entry in my hosts file:
0.0.0.0 use.typekit.com
This causes the web page to avoid using the prescribed Adobe font and fall back to using Arial.  Here's what it looks like at 150% browser zoom, which is what I perceive is what you have set, up above...
It also may make things load faster, since the adobe-clean web font doesn't get downloaded.  The downside is that you don't see things precisely the way the Adobe marketeers intended.  In this case it may be a Good Thing.

  • Is it possible to make the pasteboard and menus not so dark?

    We just upgraded to the new CC version of Indesign. Is it possible to make the paste board and menus/palletes white, or at least not so dark? It is very difficult to see darker colors in the color palette. The high contrast between the dark pasteboard and the white page gives me a splitting headache.

    apologies for the double post. I was not sure how this worked, and did not think it went through the first time. Can you diresct me to where that answer is? We did not see a reply regarding that.
    Thank you for your reply.

  • How can I make the text crisper and less blurry on my MacBook Pro?

    I just purchased my first MacBook Pro, and I absolutely love it, save for one potential deal breaker: The text displays blurry. Instead of stark, black on white text, there is a slight halo of grey (or whatever color the font is in) around every character. It makes the text look nice, but much harder to read. The characters are deliberately out of focus. Apparently this is normal, according to this article: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/businesstechnology/2015823073_ptmrsh06.htm l
    Is there a way to fix (or work around) this? As a writer, I cannot type for eight hours a day on a computer that "softens" the text. I have tried adjusting my screen resolution (it's at the highest possible) and turning off "font-smoothing" (it's off). Nothing works. I called Apple support and they couldn't help me either. I can't believe there's not an easy fix for this.

    Humor me.
    Let's revisit the things you did, because they -should- have fixed the problems.
    !) to set screen resolution, you MUST use:
    System Preferences > Displays ...
    Use of the MenuBar item simply shows the last three chosen, not all available.
    And what is the screen resolution you are using now? 13" 15" or 17" display? Do you have the default glossy screen or the enhanced matte display?
    2) font smoothing.
    System Preferences > Appearance.
    I see no OFF. I see a checkbox to default to LCD smoothing, and I see   "turn off font smoothing for characters smaller than nn point", where nn is 4 to 12.
    How do you have these set?

  • How to make the text flow in a table from on page to the next?

    hello,
    i wanted to know if its possible on pages to make a table so the text will flow from one page to the next?
    (for example, i write a content in the column on a specific raw, and if still have text when i reach the margins of the page, it automatically continues the text on the SAME raw on the next page)
    i couldn't imagine i would ask this, since this seems to be a default on Word, but i hope i explained it right, but just in case, ill add a picture to illustrate (notice that in raw 10 there is still text, its just continues and disappears, without flowing to the next page. on the next page it is just a new raw 11, and i wonder if its possible to make the remainder of the text from raw 10 flow to the next page)
    *and I'm new in mac, so please be as specific as possible
    thank you

    thank you Jerry,
    i did not understand where is that option you mentioned, because it seems that is exactly what i need!
    ill will add some snapshot to show you my "Format" and "Arrange" properties, because i couldn't find it
    *the only place i could find what you saying is on the right side of the screen, there is the "arrange" tab, but there "move with text" and "inline with text" were selected from the beginning

  • Is it possible to make a text box cycle/rotate through text, like a slide show does?

    Is it possible to make a text box cycle through 3 or 4 separate pieces/groups of text, like a slide show does with photos? So that when I open my site a text area says "Statement 1", then 10 seconds later it changes to "Statement 2", then 10 seconds later it chagnes to "Statement 3", etc.
    Its that possible with a text box? My desire is to have 3 or 4 testimonials that change every 10 seconds.
    You can see that right now it's a single testimonial:
    www.kmlstudio.com
    All help is appreciated
    Thanks!
    Kevin

    Right.  Some plugins have zip file downloads while others are just copy & paste.
    In DW, go to File > New > Blank page > JavaScript.
    Copy & paste the Cycle plugin code into your new JS page. 
    SaveAs   cycle.2.9.81.js  in whichever site folder you normally keep scripts.
    Link your HTML page to your new cycle script:
    Insert > Script > Script (browse to folder containing your cycle script). Hit OK.
    Don't forget to add a link to the jQuery core library, too.  Plugins don't work without it.

  • "Internal Goods/Services" make the text-description changeable

    Hi SRM-gurus,
    we'd like to make the TEXT description and the price changeable when adding an item (with mat.number) to shopping cart via "Internal Goods/Services". The price and the text which have been replicated from the backend should be changeable.
    So far in the old R/3 system users were able to enter the material-number and then change the suggested description e.g. from "motor 12345" into "Repair motor 12345".
    Is this possible?
    Thanks for your help.
    Best regards,
    Henning

    Hello Henning,
    It sounds like you should use a Described Requirement.  However, with what you stated about change the text, it almost sounds like a Service Master implementation.  I saysing this because the Motor 12345 sound like a Material Master item but Report Motor 12345 sounds like a Service Master item.
    We do not use Service Masters and so utilize the Describe Requirement.
    I hope this helps.
    Regards, Dean.

  • Is it possible to make the document window not to hide behind the palettes?

    Is it possible to make the document window not to hide behind the palettes (layers, paths etc) like in CS5? For instance if I want to make a correction in the right part of the image and zoom in, the window expand under the different palettes and I can no longer see the area which I want to correct without change the document window size. I don't want to use the Photoshop application fram because then I can't see stuff in other applications ID, mail an so on. 

    I have written about how to control various font sizes in Thunderbird here:
    http://www.ramsden.org.uk/9_Type_sizes.html
    Generally, you shouldn't need to zoom; you can pre-set the display of message text.
    To get straight to the point, you should probably try the https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/theme-font-size-changer/ add-on to address issues with the size of the message list font.

    Hi there,
    Download a piece of software called TinkerTool - that might just solve your problem. I have used it myself to change the system fonts on my iMac. It is software and not an app.
    Good wishes,

  • I have a macbook pro,and my finger swipe to make the text larger isn't working... is there a setting i have to check to make this feature work again?

    on the mousepad of the macbook, if you take your thumb and index finger and swipe them either together,or apart,it make the text smaller or bigger... this used to work on firefox,but doesn't seem to work anymore,and i was wondering if there is a setting that i can change to get this working again....

    Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
    You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out -> <b>cmd_fullZoomEnlarge</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReset</b>
    browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> <b>false</b>
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

  • This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out?

    This is probably a dumb question, but I can't find an answer. How do I make the text on my calendar larger so I can actually read it when I print it out? I am using a MacBook.

    Press "Command P" and when the Print dialogue box comes up, towards the bottom there is an option allowing you to choose the text size, i.e: small, med, large.

  • How can I make the text larger in this flashing box from Old Toad?

    At the end of the code, you can find
    document.write('You can add Blinking Text!');
    insert a "size" attribute to "font" tag (eg. size="10")
    document.write('You can add Blinking Text!');

  • How can i make the text go vertically in numbers

    How can I make the text vertical in numbers?  I have merged the cells and cannot find an option for making it go vertical as opposed to horizontal.

    I already gave two tools to fit this kind of needs.
    tip #1 :
    --{code}
    --[SCRIPT write_vertically]
    Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : write_vertically.scpt
    déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
    <VolumeDeDémarrage>:Utilisateurs:<votreCompte>:Bibliothèque:Scripts:Applications :Numbers:
    Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
    Saisir dans une cellule le mot à écrire verticalement puis le sélectionner.
    ATTENTION, il ne faut pas sélectionner la cellule mais le mot qui doit apparaitre surligné.
    Aller au menu Scripts , choisir Numbers puis choisir “write_vertically”
    Le script colle dans la cellule le mot apès avoir inséré un return entre tous les caractères.
    Pour mon usage personnel j'associe un raccourci à ce script grace à FastScripts.

    In a cell, type a word to write vertically then select it.
    CAUTION, don’t select the cell but the word which must be highlighted.
    Go to the Scripts Menu, choose Numbers, then choose “write_vertically”
    The script insert in the cell the word after inserting a return between every characters.
    For my own use, I link a shortcut to the script thank to FastScripts.
