Is it possible use a downloaded font in JavaFX?

Hi,
I need to let users of an applet select fonts that are then downloaded and used to display text.
I can donwload the font and run createFont(), but it seems impossible to then register it with the graphicsEnvironment.
I have a class that does this and it works when it is part of a java project, but when it is part of a javaFX project Netbeans will not accept.registerFont().
These fonts work fine if they are obtained from the client system using getAllFonts().
They need to be downloaded individually on selection because there are too many to load with the applet.
Is there a way to make registerFont() work in JavaFX, or is there some other method for making a downloaded font available to a Text object?
Thank you!

Thanks, that is useful knowledge.
Is there any other way to make the font available than by registerFont?
(Apologies for the late reply - for some reason I didn't get a watch list notification.)

How to Use a Downloaded Font

How do I use a downloaded font with Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2007? The font is in a zip file. What I found on Google gave directions for Windows XP and I was able to find the font dialog box through the control panel, but there was no drop down file option (where I was supposed to be able to simply add the font), which is what all the sources told me to look for in Windows XP ... which doesn't really help for Windows 7. Please help!
Nothing I post is an official statment of Best Buy or Geek Squad, it is only a helpful opinion!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I can help you out with this! Windows 7 has made it easy for us to do this!
1. Right click on Zipped file that you have.
2. Click extract here.
3. You should see another folder appear that is unzipped.
4. Open that folder and find the font file. (There are a few different types)
5. Right click the font file and choose the option "Install"
That should do it! ( You can also delete the 2 folders you are left with once it is installed)
Hope this helps!

Unable to use recently downloaded fonts, CC sync issue and connection problems.

Today was especially interesting.
CC would say it could not connect and to retry connection, when I clicked retry connection is would fail, over, and over - I waited 15+ minutes for it to finally connect only to tell me "Coming Soon: CC will deliver fonts from Typekit to your desktop"? https://www.dropbox.com/s/5yci79zv3opmx12/CCForgotFonts.jpg < WHAT!? So now I had to search the Adobe forum to figure out why... More wasted time.
Solution: LOGOUT from CC pref and log back in, then click the resync button tucked down at the bottom corner... No Auto-sync? No notification that my syncing was not enabled; Really?
Shouldn't it be a little more intellegent, maybe remember that I just downloaded these fonts and to perhaps give me 30 days before asking me to login to verify If I still had an active CC account in order to use the fonts? This is starting to wear thin.
Everyday I have to make sure I login to CC because if I don't I may not have a function or font. Then there is the licensing I have to accept each time because I logged out; each time!
(I have deleted folders and reinstalled CC to 'fix' this, only to have it stop working after a day or two, even on a local administrator account and domain admin account)
I'm just thankful I do not travel anymore because I couldn't with CC. I would have to install CS6 in order not to worry, that should say something about this new Adobe model.

Autodiscover does resolve the details correctly but I do have two warnings saying that "The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name on the site". One is showing for exchange1.mycompany.local and the other one is showing

Pls verify that you have changed all InternalURLs to + AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri in ClientAccessServer. This is needed since you don't have the servers FQDN in your certificate. See

Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?

Looking to run windows on my MBPro through Bootcamp or Parallels, but would like to use a downloaded Windows 7, is it possible to install without the Windows Disc?
Need to set up a workstation on my MBPro that will only run on Windows. Im willing to use Bootcamp or Parallels to see what works best. Need to get this set up this week to enable working from home on my MB - rural and hoping to buy Windows 7 online - am I able to get windows working through either bootcamp or Parallels without the actual Windows disc? Bootcamp set up guide calls for a disc.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
First, the answer to your question is yes, it IS possible to install Windows in Parallels without a disc, using an .iso image file.
Boot Camp since OS X 10.8 also installs Windows without a disc: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4889551?tstart=0
Parallels has complete documentation, series of forums, and a knowledgebase. You can also download the current release of Parallels 9 and try it for free for a few weeks before you decide to purchase it.
The Parallels Desktop for Mac product page: http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/
The Desktop for Mac forums: http://forum.parallels.com/forumdisplay.php?58-Parallels-Desktop-for-Mac
Documentation: http://www.parallels.com/support/desktop-virtualization/desktop/#c12970
The Knowledgebase for Desktop for Mac: http://kb.parallels.com
The primary difference between a Boot Camp installation and a Parallels installation is that in the Boot Camp installation, you're installing Windows into a separate partition on your internal mass storage device (hard drive or SSD) and then rebooting your Mac directly into Windows.
In Parallels, you're always running OS X on the Mac and Parallels is running a Windows virtual machine.
Not to get too technical here, but it is also possible for Parallels to run an installed Windows Boot Camp partition as a virtual machine. If you're evaluating system performance with a trial copy, that might be the way to go, because you only have to install Windows once on Boot Camp as a dual-boot system, then install Parallels Desktop and run the Boot Camp partition as the virtual machine.
There is a performance difference between the two, with the Boot Camp Windows installation being faster, but without the convenience of running both Mac and Windows applications simultaneously offered by Parallels. Sometimes that convenience outweighs a performance hit.
I can't give you more Mavericks and Parallels 9 specifics, because I'm currently running Windows 7 with Parallels 7 on OS X 10.8.5. Parallels 7 will not run on OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
I've been using Parallels (to run a few old rarely-used WIndows applications with features that would require a steep learning curve and major expense to purchase and learn a similar Mac app) occasionally since Parallels 3 and Windows XP. With each new release of OS X, each new release of Parallels, and each new Windows release, there are ALWAYS 'early adopter' bugs that get worked out over time.

Why can't I post my resume from Pages to the web or an email on my iPad?? I've tried using iCab, downloading google docs, etc. I understand it's not possible from iPad but why???

Why can't I post my resume from Pages to the web or an email on my iPad?? I've tried using iCab, downloading google docs, etc. I understand it's not possible from iPad but why??? If I can't use safari to do it is there any other way?? Seriously, are iPads only used for watching Hulu, playing games, fb and twitter? My phone can do that!! Worst $500 I ever spent.

We don't want to email it..... we want to upload it.
Then why did you say (emphasis added):
Why can't I post my resume from Pages to the web or an email on my iPad??
There are plenty of methods for putting a resume online, where a potential employer can download it, though admittedly the iPad is less flexible in this regard than a computer. Nobody ever has claimed otherwise. However, I get the feeling you're not actually looking for an answer to anything, and you're just posting to complain. Note that that is a violation of the Apple Support Communities Terms of Use, which you agreed to when signing up for an account here.
I wish I had gotten a Galaxy Tab.
Then sell your iPad and go buy one. You will have no problems whatsoever finding a buyer.

Is it possible to use Apple's fonts for commercial use?

Is it possible to use Apple's fonts for commercial use?
Thank you very much.

Here's a look at the font agreement section from OS X Mountain Lion:
E. Fonts. Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, you may use the fonts included with the Apple Software to display and print content while running the Apple Software; however, you may only embed fonts in content if that is permitted by the embedding restrictions accompanying the font in question. These embedding restrictions can be found in the Font Book/Preview/Show Font Info panel.
So basically, you need to examine the fonts to see if there are notes on usage restrictions or limitations.

Tried to download Font General for Facebook and Firefox prevented the site from asking me to download. Is it a "bad" program?

I was searching for emoticons on Facebook....and a link came up for Font General ...to use different type fonts on Facebook. I clicked on the download for FireFox and a small box popped up saying "FireFox has prevented this site (www.fontgeneral.com) from asking you to install software on your computer. There was a button that I could click to ALLOW....but I wanted to know if there was a possibility of the program being known to be unsafe.

Firefox only comes with two sites pre-approved to install add-ons, because add-ons have full privileges and you want to be pretty careful about which ones you install.
The warning you got was a general notice. As far as I know, Mozilla doesn't test or even try to keep track of add-ons that don't come from the official add-ons site.
Facebook and web search would be good resources for further research.

How can I print a LabView report using the printer font (not a windows font)?

My printer is connected via a com interface. For speed reason I have to use the font of the printer. I use the report generation VIs to generate my report. With the VI "Set Report Font.vi" its possible to choose a font but I think only windows fonts are accepted.
Printing from "WordPad" using printer fonts is no problem, just select font "15 CPI" for example. But how does it work with LabView?

Have you already tried this in LabVIEW? What results did you receive when you tried it?

The computer that I first used to download iTunes is no more. I have a new computer that I set my wife up on. While I can see all my music in the iTunes library I cannot sync my iPod

The computer that I first used to download iTunes, to buy songs and to sync my iPod Nano to iTunes is no more. I have a new computer that I inadvertently set my wife up on. When I sign in, while I can see all my music in the iTunes library, when I tried to 'sync', I have lost all my music in my iPod and I now have my wife's library on there instead.
I subscribed to iTunes Match, thinking that this would help. It hasn't and I'm not happy!
I have arranged to take my iPod into an Apple store next Tuesday but isn't there something you can tel me to do that ties my iPod wth my music and leaves my wife's music for her iPod? Please help, I am so frustrated and have wasted so much time on this, reinstalling iTunes, restoring my iPod....
Can anyone help?

HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401a Laser Printer Not Saving Downloaded Fonts

Hi,
we have recently purchased an HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401a Laser Printer which needs to be used with a system that downloads fonts for correct style printouts. The problem I am having is the fonts download initially which is great, but they are not saved by the printer after 1 printout so the user is having to download the fonts everytime she wants to print something.
All other printers in the office are HP2055 and work as expected saving the fonts after the initial download. I have asked the support team of the application to have a look at the situation and they say everything is setup correctly so it may be an issue with the printer. Printer is installed on a Windows XP SP3 PC.
Firware version: 20121205 (15 Dec 2012)
Driver Version: 61.140.04.14138 (1 Jan 2013)
Any help would be appeciated, thanks.

If the downloaded soft fonts are definitely not being saved (despite the download presumably terminating with a 'make soft font permanent' escape sequence), then the problem must lie in the firmware - and the only resolution is if HP releases a new version with a fix.
To be certain about which PCL5 fonts are resident in the printer, you have presumably printed off a 'PCL5 Typeface List' via the relevant front panel menu (assuming this printer has one).
Or you could send the following direct to the printer to invoke that report:
<Esc>%-12345X@PJL COMMENT Print PCL Font List
@PJL DMINFO ASCIIHEX = "040004010105020402015E"
<Esc>%-12345X
where <Esc> represents the non-graphic) Escape control-code character (the character with decimal code 27, or hexadecimal 1B), and each PJL statement is terminated with a LineFeed control-code (decimal 10, hexadecimal 0A).
Assuming that the printer is USB-connected, you could send the contents of the file (name, say, testfile.prn) holding the above to the printer using the copy command in a command-prompt session:
copy /b testfile.prn \\computer-name\share-name
where:
computer-name is the name of the host workstation
share-name is a share name of the installed Windows printer instance.
I don't have access to your model of printer, but I do use a LaserJet Pro 400 Colour MFP 475dn (MFP equivalent of M451 printer), and this does appear to retain downloaded 'permanent' soft fonts - but only until the device goes into 'sleep' mode!
So it is probably a common 'fault' (or 'design decision'?) across this family (LJ Pro 400) of printers.

<Edited by Host>

you can simply clone the Windows VM to the HDD partition (just be sure to uninstall the Parallels Extras, first.
Is there a tool from Parallels to do so? I wasn't aware of native support. Paragon sells such tools to do so but those require you already have Windows.
There is a Mac utility to take an .exe version of Windows and run it through and output a DVD.
I assume you mentioned to burn any ISO at slowest burn speed your DVD allows.
SimplyBurns is a Mac OS X application with a GUI, which allows the user to burn CD / DVD media.

How do I use a Hebrew font in indesign?

How do I use a Hebrew font in Indesign?

You will need either the Middle Eastern version of InDesign, or a plugin like World Tools for the English version of ID. If you are a Creative Cloud member, you can just download the ME version by setting your langauge correctly in (I think) the Creative Cloud app. If you own a perpetual license for some earlier version of CS, then it's not so easy, and World Tools is (in my limited opinion) probably your best bet.
