List of available fonts

Hi all.
I would like to get a list of all available fonts on a system and store the names in an array. I know that a getAllFonts method exists in the GraphicsEnvironment class, but it's abstract. Are there any common implementations? Or are there any better ways to get the list (I would prefer to not extend my class any further)? Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Going back to your followup post - the function to
return a concrete instance seems to be class
specific, so then how do I know what the given
function should be, You check the API.
i.e. there was no
getLocalGraphicsEnvironment() function in the API
spec?Look again:
[url http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/awt/GraphicsEnvironment.html#getLocalGraphicsEnvironment()]getLocalGraphicsEnvironment

LOV/List of available Fonts

Does anyone know how to get list of all available fonts on system?. I want to add available fonts to list item, or text item with LOV. using forms 6i
Thanks

i don't know how but I can give you a guide line. You can try.
create another c or vb program that will count font in you system and create a list to text file. Then call that program and get list from that text field. Because you can import text from text file to you form or list.
Thanks

Trying to add HelveticaNeueLT Std to list of Available Fonts

I want to add a font in RH9. I have added the following test to the rhfontset file:
<fontset>
<name>HelveticaNeueLT Std</name>
<fontlist>HelveticaNeueLT Std</fontlist>
</fontset
I save the file and go back into my project but the new font is not there. Is there anything further I may need to do? Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi RoboColum(n)
Thank you very much for your response. I believe the font is available because I can use it in Microsoft Word. Also, when I go to Control Panel>Appearance and Pdersonalization>Fonts it shows up (see image). Is there anything further you can think of that might be able to help me. Thanks!

XP Pro Windowsw/Fonts has a font. It is listed as available in MS Word. It is not listed as available in Adobe Illustrator CS6. How do I fix this? Thanks.

BobbyH5280. Very helpful answer! I am XP for the next week on CS6. I did find 3 items that helped. The fonts are in AI, but are listed on the bottom of the list. Also in Edit/Preferences/Type, checking "Show Font Names in English" makes the font list easier to read (doesn't appear to change the sort order though), and (with your suggestion) checking "Sow Asian Options" might do something positive. Thanks to all of you who sent in tips.

Abap Lists - Printing - defining font and CPI and applying to printed text

Hi,
I am trying to define some forms for matrix printing. I should change the font type, and CPI.
We will print ABAP Lists.
I see my fonts (courier, 100, 12CPI, Prnt.Ctrl SF005) are defined in SE73.
In SPAD - device type (choose spec. one) u2013 Print Controls (tab) I can see SF005, marked u201EDirectu201C column, as well as u201EHexadecimalu201C. Control Character Sequence is 1B6B001B4D121B57001B461B35.
I can see 31 more SFxxx Print controls here.
How do I apply specific Print Controls (SF005) from this list to a printed document? (I assume this is the list of available prnt.ctrls that can be used for printing, but how do I "select" specific ones and apply them to document print?)
How do I choose u201ECOL0N: Color off, normal fontu201D (intensified OFF u2013 I heard that sap print in bold by default)?
Thanks in advance,
cheers,
Nenad
P.s. u2013 in printer settings the default font is Coourier 10, 12CPI, draft output. If I change this settings on printer directly, no effect is applied on printed documents... Printing from ECC 6.0

hi again,
more info:
In Formats (Z_fakt1) - Formats (tab): u201EPrinter initializationu201C, I can see some predefined settings, but it is copied from some IBM printer, and I wonder is it correct. There is nothing about font type:
#reset
\e\0x40
select US-ASCII character set
\e\0x52\0x00
set line spacing 6 LPI
\e\0x32
set page length to 12 inch (=72 lines at 6 LPI)
\e\0x43\0x48
cancel bottom margin
\e\0x4F
set left margin to 0
\e\0x6C\0x00
select draft quality
\e\0x78\0x00
select non-proportional spacing
\e\0x70\0x00
cancel condensed printing
\0x12
disable double-width printing
\e\0x57\0x00
select 10 CPI
\e\0x50
Result here is: 11CPI. Bold. Looks like "Times New Roman"
The exact copy from IBM printer is used for another format (Z_fakt2), nothing is different except:
select 12 CPI
\e\0x4D
Result here is: 10CPI. Bold. I am under BIG impression that the font type is different. But it is possible the font looks different just due to a size difference. Looks like "Courier New"
In both cases I print predefined text with same output device, same device type.
When I set 15CPI (0x67) u2013 I still get 10CPI, just the font looks more plain, more "draft" then before - like once in DOS. I am certain that these font type is definitely different then before (for example, here "W" have parallel endings). These fonts are even more suitable for these reports...
Shouldn't the fonts be SMALLER and more of them in 1 inch (15 characters per inch) now then 10CPI (10 character per inch - less characters to fill 1 inch)??
If I set 1CPI - shouldn't there be just 1 big character on 24,5mm?
When I delete all entry (except # reset \e\0x40) from "Printer initialization" for one Format, the print output looks exact as before deleting (and saving)?!
I would like to set Courier font, (really 12CPI), plain text, no bold.
Where should I set this options?
Thanks and sorry for long input, but the more info you have, the more insight ou have in my problem...
Cheers,
N

2 way to retrieve a list of embedded fonts in Flex 4 - which one is better?

Hi all,
I am currently aware of 2 different methods to retrieve a list of currently available embedded fonts on the local system
var embedededFonts : Array = Font.enumerateFonts(false)
var appSystemManager : SystemManager = FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.owner;
var embeddedFonts : Array = appSystemManager.embeddedFontList();
What is best way to retrieve a list of embedded fonts out of those two approaches?

"better" in what way... performance? reliability?

Certain desktop-available fonts not syncing

Font and file syncing is working for me, but certain fonts that say they are available for desktop font syncing on Typekit are not showing up in Photoshop or any other apps. I even see the notification that the files are syncing when I choose them for desktop use on Typekit, but they don't show up in my list of synced fonts in the Creative Cloud app, and aren't available for use in any apps. Two examples are Adelle and FF Tisa Pro.
Thanks,
Jordan

Hi Jordan,
I'm sorry that you are having trouble with fonts syncing. Would you please email [email protected] with the Adobe ID that you use for Typekit? We'll take a look and see why font sync isn't working for you.
Thanks,

Custom playbar does not display in the list of available widgets

I followed the steps described in the "Skins" page of the Captivate 5 help outlined here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/captivate/cp/using/WSc1b83f70210cd101126156ac11c7f147d6b-8000. html
Now my problem is, that my custom playbar is not displayed in the list of available playbars (neither in the Project->Skin Editor->Playbar nor in the list of widgets). If I just duplicate one of the existing playbar files in Gallery/Widgets/Playbars it's listed without problems.
I use Flash CS5 to edit the playbar and tried to publish it as AS3 and AS2 - no success.
Are there special settings I need to set in the publishing settings to get my playbar in the list? Anything else I'm missing?!
Thanks,
Peter

Try putting the swf for the playbar in ...\Adobe Captivate 5\en_GB\Gallery\Playbars\AS3\

How do I create a list of available times?

I frequently receive emails asking me when I'm free for a meeting. I'd like to reply with a list of available times between specified dates. How do I do this with existing Mac software or commercial products? I've seen such listings from Outlook.
Desired output:
This Thursday I'm free:
8:00 am - 9:00 am
2:00 pm - 3:30 pm

(and no, no automatics)
• create your list in Keynote (or any other text or paint app ... or ppt ....)
• save it as a jpeg
• erase one 'line'
• save it again
• repeat steps until one line left
=> you get a couple of stills
iM would allow to add those to your project; add a simple transition => lines 'appear'
if you need the text overlaid to a video, use the the well-known 'transparent png' trick (then, the new line has to appear with a hard cut.
to inspire you, read my (old) advice - it's shown with iMHD6, but the 'mechanics' is same.

How to search for a font not listed in the Fonts window

I'm unable to create a PDF of an older document built by someone who doesn't work here anymore (so I can't ask how they built it). The PDF starts to generate but it takes longer than usual then right before the last page, it stops and I get a log telling me that it can't generate the PDF because of a problem with a Frutiger-Roman font. We don't use that font so I'm not sure where it would be. Also, when I look in the Fonts pod window, it's not listed.
Is there a way to search a document to find a font that isn't listed in the Fonts pod window?
Thanks

Sounds like it's coming in with an import, which is probably an image, but could also be a text inset.
I've seen this happen with DWG, DXF, EPS and EPSI imports. I'd expect it to be possible with PDF imports, as well as any formatted text inset.
It could even be an empty string. You can't find any text, but the declaration got triggered anyway.
Most image formats that can include fonts can be opened in Adobe Illustrator. You can then Select > Object > Text Objects and see what's there (or not). If AI throws "some objects have been outlined", you've located the offending file for sure.

ICal - iPhone sync. Local calendar not showing up in iTunes list of available calendars, only Exchange calendars.

iTunes only shows Exchange-calendars in the list where you can choose which calendars (we're talking about "calendars", not "accounts") you want to synchronize. If I add a local calendar in iCal, I can not choose it to synchronize with my iPhone. It simply doesn't show up in the list of available calendars. How does iTunes compile this list of available Calendars to synchronize?

Hi Zachary,
Here is an article I'd suggest to troubleshoot this situation:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
You may only need to go through the steps with one device and have it resolve for the others.

Where can I get a list of available selection for certain dict type?

Where can I get a list of available selection for certain dict type in code? For instance, when I use SE16 to view VBFA table, I am presented with many filter criteria. One of them would be "VBTYP_N". When I click on the square next to the option, I am presented with a list of possible values to select from. Where can I get the list of this possible values for any given dict type in code?

Hi Frank,
The list of possible selection you see can be from diferent sources
1) Search helps defined either programatically or search helps defined at table level.
If it is a Z Selection screen check the program, then the data declaration of the parameter
2)Check tables provided at field level. They can be through use of foreign keys. The proposal generated could be simple compund ..
3) Fixed values at Domain level ()
Please refer to this link as well for detailed explanation

How to list all the fonts in an FLA?

Hello all,
I want to find a way to list all the fonts in my FLA files. I want to see that the developers get the fonts they need before the problems crop up - wild idea, I know. Using the edit/font mapping option seems to only show fonts which are missing or have been re-mapped. How do I get the FLA to give me the name of every font it's holding?

Not the answer you want, but the closest you're going to find:
Open the Movie Explorer (Window/Movie Explorer). Select the "A" button at the top of the panel and deselect all others. This gives you a list of all text in the FLA, with the font listed at the end of each line.
