How do I enable bold/italic text formatting in blog module on website?

For some reason I can't figure out how to enable more text formatting options on our blog. We used the blog module on a muse template. I customized the module to apply fonts we used on our website. The main text on the blog is Lato.
Link to blog: Coupar Consulting
When we go in to write a post you can use the bold/italics options and it shows up in the edit window as shown in the screenshot below:
The font is not correct, but because I set the font in the module to use Lato it does show as lato when you publish, see preview below (notice no bold or italic text):
What am I missing??
Thanks in advance!!

Use your browsers console and inspect tool. This stuff becomes very easy.
address,caption,cite,code,dfn,em,strong,th,var,optgroup
font-style: inherit;
font-weight: inherit;
Line 34 ish in - http://www.couparconsulting.com/css/site_global.css?3869595648
This overides the font bold style on strong.

Highlighting text in TextArea

How do I highlight selected text in TextArea? (awt)
For example, I am using the StringTokenizer class to break up the text into words and wish to highlight any mis-spelt words.
Thanks again,
Sean

TextArea inherits the method select() from TextComponent. This allows a single selection within the TextArea by specifying the start and end positions. There isn't a way to have multiple selections in a TextArea.

When printing form using Adobe Acrobat X, I get squares over my italic text

Hi,
I have created an Adobe Form using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and just printed it to check whether this works and the following occured:
- When printing my 14 page document using adobe reader everything looked great
- When printing my 14 page document using adobe prof X (not XI !) the italic text had some (non filled, seethrough) squares throughout it. The squares are not constant (5-15 squares per sentence) and I cannot recognize a pattern. However, they appear each time I print the entire document.
- When printing only one page of the document (that has italic text on it) it prints fine with either the free adobe reader or adobe pro X.
Font is Verdana,Italic. Size is 8,27 pt. Data is sometimes embedded (I did not use this feature and have no idea what is means). I always use Windows. Right now windows 7 to be exact.
One more thing: as you can see above the file was created using adobe XI. However, my company uses adobe pro X and therefore the document had to be printable using adobe pro X.
Can someone please help me? I have put a lot of time in the design of this form and not being able to print it correctly is a real dealbreaker for using it which would mean my efforts were wasted.
I added an example to clearify:
Best,
Linda

This is all I can find in KB:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/877/cpsid_87775.html#main_Known_issues_on_Windows_
I downloaded MS hotfix and the issue still persists.
We have to identify if this is an adobe issue or a microsoft issue.

Problem with italic text when saving a pse-project to pdf

We work with Photoshop Elements 6 and Photoshop Elements 7
When we save a pse-project (multiple psd-pages) to pdf and use italic text then the letters of the text is disordered in line.
I have attached a file with two textlayers. In the first layer i've set the word "italic" to italic and the hole layer is bad. The second layer without italic text is good.
With normal PSD files saved into PDF we have no problems.
Does anybody knows a work around/patch or know anyone if this only a problem in these old versions?

Actually any export of PDF page content to another file formate (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) will need touch up / clean up in the native application 99 44/100 ths of the time.
While a well-formed Tagged PDF (e.g., ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant) can export to Word and call for little to no touch up / clean up PowerPoint is something else.
In the example the background color, text size, color and postion are well within the ball park. To "fine tune" would (of course) call for post-processing.
Be well...

After upgrade to v26.0 - text in textarea boxes is spilling out onto the page

After upgrading to version 26.0 - I'm on windows XP, all the text in textarea boxes spills out of the box and onto the page. Text-wrapping is turned off.
It consistently happens like this: I load up a page with a textarea box that contains a lot of text in it. Textwrapping is off. At first everything looks fine. Then about 3-5 seconds later, the text spills onto the scrollbars, then another 2-3 seconds later it spills out onto the page. Sometimes in both directions, usually spills to the right.
Resizing the browser window makes no difference.
Using the scroll bars in the textarea also makes no difference.
I've uploaded a screen shot of the problem here:

thanks for any recommendations and help you can provide

Is it preformatted text? In that case, of course, the overflow should be hidden and not pour out of the Firefox window.
When the display goes haywire, I first suspect a graphics card driver incompatibility. Sometimes this will be triggered by a change in Firefox, while in other cases, it may result from a driver or OS update. Try disabling Firefox's use of hardware acceleration for graphics as a workaround.
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
This will take effect after you restart Firefox. Any difference?

Itallic Text in Table header

Hello All,
We are using the TableView Control in one of our aplications to display search results.When we built this particular application we were on EP6 SP2 PL 29.
Some how in that version teh header text in the tabledataview control was displaying italic text.
We used the following piece of code do this.
bean.setSearchHeader("Search Result(s) For: "+ bean.getSearchString()+ " ("+ mySearch.getTrueResults()+ ")");"
This would display the keyword we searched for in Italic.
Now we have migrated from EP6 SP2 to EP6 SP16.
The correct portal version is:
J2EE Engine 6.40 PatchLevel 102141.313
Portal 6.0.16.0.0
KnowledgeManagementCollaboration 6.0.16.3.0 (NW04 SPS16 Patch3)
Now in this particular version when we search for any keywords.
The results are displayed but the header data does not show the keyword in Italics, however it displayes the "" tag.
Let me know whether we can display italic text in table Header.
Thanks and Regards
Manoj Kumar

Hi,
to customize the header of the TableView change the header renderer.
1. implement IHeaderRenderer interface:
public class HeaderRenderer implements IHeaderRenderer {
public void renderHeader(TableView tableView, IPageContext pcontext) {
TextView tv = new TextView();
tv.setEncode(false);
tv.setText("italic header text");
tv.render(pcontext);
public boolean willRenderHeader(TableView tableView, IPageContext pcontext) {
//allways render
return true;
2. set the header renderer class to your TableView object:
tableView.setHeaderRenderer(new HeaderRenderer());
this should show the text in the table header in italics.

[JS] (CS2) How do you insert pseudo tags around italic text

I need to find all the italic text strings wherever they occur (tables, headers, footers etc) in an InDesign CS2 document and insert a pseudo-xml tag before and after each string (something like
before and <\I> after.)
I'm positive this must be possible but my limited experience has failed me so far.
Can anyone point me in the right direction please.
TIA

With many thanks to the experts, I managed to sort out the table slant problem. For the benefit of all our many readers, here is the complete solution tested with a multi page document hosting all sorts of text and tables. It's quite long because I believe in plenty of comments.
// make sure we have at least one document open
if (app.documents.length == 0) {
// warn operator and exit immediately
alert("There are no open documents.");
exit();
// OK if we get here, we have an open doc
myDoc = app.activeDocument;
// set up start and end tags
startTag = "#.";// should really be "
endTag = "#:";// should really be "<\i>"
slantTagCount = 0;// initialise our two counters
italicTagCount = 0;
// If we are going to search/change something, we use preferences
// So, the first thing we have to do is clear them out;
// they're application level properties; see pages 567 and 568:
app.findPreferences = null;
app.changePreferences = null;
// use the search() method to search entire document for italic fonts
myFinds = myDoc.search('', false, false, undefined, {fontStyle : 'Italic'});
if (myFinds.length != 0) {
// myFinds will consist of an array of references into the text of the doc
// each reference pointing to a run offset
// run the loop backwards so that if we make any changes to the text runs
// it won't affect the array of references.
// now add the italic tags
for (var j = myFinds.length-1;j>=0;j--){
// at each italic text run we want to insert
// a pseudo xml tag at beginning and end
// Adding the tags is this simple (end tag first):
myFinds[j].insertionPoints.item(-1).contents = endTag;
myFinds[j].insertionPoints.item(0).contents = startTag;
italicTagCount++;
// as the italic effect can also be achieved by applying a slant to each character
// we need to check the whole document again, but this time we do it story by story
// Finding slanted text--when text.skew is not zero, text has been slanted.
// Unfortunately, what you want to look for is cases where this value is NOT zero,
// and even InDesign's grep search can't find that (it can apply NOT to character classes,
// but not to formatting attributes)--or, at least, I can't figure out how to do it.
// So you have to "roll your own." Something like this:
myStories = myDoc.stories;
for (var jj = myStories.length-1; jj >= 0; jj--) {
// loop through all the stories in the document
myStory = myStories[jj];
//Given a story "myStory"...
for(var myCounter = myStory.textStyleRanges.length -1; myCounter >= 0; myCounter --){
if(myStory.textStyleRanges.item(myCounter).skew != 0){
//Found some slanted text.
myStory.textStyleRanges.item(myCounter).insertionPoints.item(-1).contents = endTag;
myStory.textStyleRanges.item(myCounter).insertionPoints.item(0).contents = startTag;
slantTagCount++;
// the above procedure does all the italic content in tables as well as ordinary text boxes
// but only does skewed (slanted) text in ordinary text boxes.
// We need to tackle skewed text in tables separately.
for (var i = myStories.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
// go through every story
for (var j = myStories[i].tables.length - 1;j >= 0; j--) {
// go through every table in this story
for (var k = myStories[i].tables[j].columns.length - 1; k >= 0; k--) {
// go through every column in this table
for (var m = myStories[i].tables[j].rows.length - 1; m >= 0; m--) {
// go through every row in this column to look at each cell
myCell = myStories[i].tables[j].columns[k].cells[m];
// introduce another variable to make next bit more readable
myCellStyle = myCell.textStyleRanges;
if (myCellStyle.length !=0) {
// go through all the text ranges in this cell
for (var myCounter = myCellStyle.length - 1; myCounter >= 0; myCounter --) {
// check each range item for skew
if (myCellStyle.item(myCounter).skew != 0) {
// found some slanted text so tag it
myCellStyle.item(myCounter).insertionPoints.item(-1).contents = endTag;
myCellStyle.item(myCounter).insertionPoints.item(0).contents = startTag;
slantTagCount++;
// tell operator what we did, note that document appearance not updated until
// alert has been acknowledged by operator.
alert ("Italic Tag Count = "+italicTagCount+"\nSlant Tag Count = "+slantTagCount);

How to locate italic text

I need to find all the locations where italic text is in the pdf document. It seems to me that there is not a way to do this with Acrobat X. Would someone please suggest a method to do this.

It's not possible with a script, either. Maybe with a plugin. Try the Acrobat SDK forum.

Adobe Reader - Italic texts appears as Regular

Hi,
In earlier, I had an issue in print PDF documents using Adobe Reader wherein all Italic texts are printed as Regular. I found the below link from Adobe and upgraded the version I am using and the issue were fixed.
Can't print italics | Mouseover problems | Acrobat 10.1.1 or 9.4.6 update
Currently, I am using Version 11.0.07, under Macintosh and I come through the same issue. The case is that, I have created 10 PDF documents from a single application (say Chapter wise), in which 7 of them prints well whereas in 3 of PDFs, Italic texts printed as Roman. Is that a bug in the Reader?

Before anything else, try updating to 11.0.09.

Save text of textarea and reuse it to replace text in textarea

hi everyone
Is it possible to save text of textarea in some variable or so and with its textformat (more than one color) and then reuse it to replace text in textarea?
I tried saving htmlText of textarea but the problem is when i replace it in textarea tags causes problem. There will always be another extra line.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks alot for any help.

If anyone wants to view tags problem try following. Just click on text and then move your down arrow key, cursor will go to next line.
import fl.controls.TextArea;
var txtHTML:TextArea = new TextArea();
txtHTML.move(0,0);
var default_format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
 default_format.font = "Arial";
 default_format.bold = false;
 default_format.align = "center";
 default_format.color = 0xFFFF00;
 default_format.size = 14;
var field:TextField = txtHTML.textField;
 field.defaultTextFormat = default_format;
 field.setTextFormat(default_format);
 field.alwaysShowSelection = true;
 field.background = true;
 field.type = 'input';
 field.multiline = true;
 field.backgroundColor = 0x777777;
 field.embedFonts = true;
 txtHTML.htmlText = 'ASDF';
 field.x = 0;
 field.y = 0;
 field.width = 400;
 field.height = 200;
 field.text = "";
addChild(txtHTML);

You can use a JTextPane and use attributes:

Different colour text in textarea

Hi,
I was hoping someone could tell me whether it's possible to change the colour of text that is appended to a textarea.
I'm finishing off a chat server/applet project and i thought it would look better if I could colour code the messages that are displayed on the screen. e.g when a user enters a room the text signifying that is displayed in red, when a user leaves the room the text is coloured red etc.
I would greatly appreciate any help on this

Sadly to say it is not possible JEditorPane or JTextPane is the only way

Color only certain text in TextArea

Hello, I'm making an applet and I'm writing my output to a TextArea. I was wondering if it is possible to color only certain text. I.E. have some text in black and some in red.
I know you can color all text using foreground, but wasn't too sure if you could color certain text.
Any helps appreciated. Thank you in advance.
