Mail not handling Fonts correctly?

Hi all.
For some reason whenever I send mail to someone using Outlook, on there side it changes my default font to something else. I notice this when they respond, it different then what I have it set as.
Any ideas? Is it something Outlook is doing?
I have it set in Mail to Verdana, but Outlook is seeing it as Times New Roman.
Thanks.

Are you sending HTML email, and is the person using Outlook sending you HTML email? If that's what they're sending, the font specified in their HTML will be used instead of the one you chose, as long as that font is available. The same would be true for HTML email they received from you.
If this isn't what you're doing, we need more details.

  • Why is Preview not displaying fonts correctly?

    Since the last Snow Leopard upgrade, Preview is not displaying some fonts correctly. I checked to see if the fonts were embedded in the PDF (by resorting to Adobe Acrobat 5... which is not displaying them correctly either) and they are True Type with Windows encoding which as far as I know Preview OS X should be able to handle.
    I tried deleting the Preview preferences in User/Library/Prefeerences and restarting but this made no difference. The same PDF works perfectly though on an old iMac that is running OS X Tiger!!!

    Well I found a few minor font problems which seem to have cropped up since the last system upgrade, but none of those were the font in question. Also, as I understand it, the whole point of PDF documents is that the fonts are embedded in the document so you do not have to have the fonts installed on your computer to view the PDF properly. I use a lot of special fonts and when I save documents as a PDF I can send them to anyone on the internet and they can usually see everything as it is meant to be.

  • InDesign CS5.5 does not display fonts correctly

    InDesign CS5.5 does not display Futura fonts correctly. I have removed all versions of Futura from FontBook on my Mac (running Mac OSX 10.7.4) but CS5.5 - Indesign, Illustrator & photoshop - still displays Futura as being open but only InDesign does not display the font correctly. The font displays correctly when I open InDesign CS4 and all other versions of Illustrator and Photoshop.  I really need to use this font. What's going on with InDesign?

    In your first screen shot , there are 2 futura font ,one is Adobe Type 1 font and the second one is True Type, you might have installed both the type of the font on your computer sometime. Now you have removed all the futura font and it is still showing in the Indesign , also the same thing happened with the Minion Pro , seems to me the font cache is not updating.
    First remove the Adobe Font cache's file:-
             At the Finder, choose File > Find.  
             Type AdobeFnt.lst, select the system drive, and then press Return.  
             Delete all AdobeFnt.lst files found (for example, AdobeFnt10.lst).
    then clear system font cache  :-  
    Launch Terminal (from /Applications/Utilities)
    Enter the following command at the prompt and press Return: sudo atsutil databases -remove
    Restart your computer immediately

  • Safari not handling Javascript correctly

    I am currently trying to learn how to put Javascript into web pages by reading through the tutorial at http://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp
    However it seems that Safari is not handling the Javascript correctly when it loads some of the examples:
    http://www.w3schools.com/js/tryit.asp?filename=tryjs_confirm
    http://www.w3schools.com/js/tryit.asp?filename=tryjs_prompt
    However they load correctly in FireFox.
    Why?
    Is there something I can do to get Safari to handle the Javascript correctly?
    Or is there a document somewhere describing how Safari handles Javascrip so that I know how to change the Javascript so that it loads correctly in Safari?

    Okay, I click the button labeled "Display a confirm box" on http://www.w3schools.com/js/tryit.asp?filename=tryjs_confirm
    A Dialog box appears and I click "OK".
    In Safari the button labeled "Display a confirm box" dissapears.
    In FireFox the button labeled "Display a confirm box" dissapears and is replaced with "You pressed OK!"
    Similarly, in the second example, Safari just get's rid of the button, where FireFox replaces it with the appropriate text.

  • Mail not using the correct account to reply to email

    I use Gmail to fetch email from my other email accounts. Prior to Mountain Lion, whenever I replied to an email, Mail would use the correct email account to reply to. That is to say, Gmail was fetching email from [email protected], for example. When I click reply, the default account would be mail.com. But since upgrading to Mountain Lion, the default account will be Gmail.com.
    Has anyone experienced this? How were you able to solve this, if at all?
    Thanks in advance for your responses.

    The new rule seems to be if you move an email message received on account A to a folder belonging to account B, that means the message now "belongs to" account B, and replies will come from account B. The new rule is murkier if you move a message from account A to an "On My Mac" folder and then reply to it.
    I'm not saying that I like it that way, or that Apple has documented the change, just that this "new rule" seems to explain many of the "wrong reply" and "copying myself" complaints we see here on the forums. If we (users) can figure out the second half of the "new rule" ("On My Mac" folders), we might be able to explain the rest, we might be able to predict how replies will work, and we might be able to write a cogent complaint about the "new rule."

  • Pages (iWork) is not displaying fonts correctly

    I'm using the popular font Ubuntu (as this is our corporate font) in Pages (5.2). Everytime I type an apostrophe it turns it into a little superscript 9. If I type single quotes these become superscript 8's and 9's. Sample below:
    Obviously, it is the substitutions for curly quotes that are doing this but why can't Pages display the fonts correctly. This works perfectly with this same font in Text Edit including the susbstitutions. It also works perfectly in Pages 09 (4.3).
    So frustrating. Everytime I try to upgrade to any of the new iWork applications I find a bug or missing feature that forces me back to the previous version!

    Bug confirmed.
    Report this to Apple?
    There are such an enormously long list of bugs and missing features in Pages 5, why bother.
    Stick to Pages '09 until Apple stops pretending Pages 5 is actually usable as is.

  • RH9 + IE10 does not display fonts correctly

    Hi,
    When I view the published documentation in IE10 & Firefox 16.0.1
    Bolded font displays "exaggerated" (thick and wide) and not as intended. This style was applied using the B button on the RH toolbar. Resulting code is <span style="font-weight:bold;"></span>
    Font which is bolded as a result of an assigned style, displays correctly.
    Font family in CSS is Arial.
    This does not happen when viewing the same documentation in IE using Compability View (to view as if IE9). In fact, this issue only occurred in IE since moving to IE10. Not sure about previous versions of Firefox.
    I have applied the patch provided by William to RH9 for viewing on IE10.
    I have also verified that font options are unchecked in IE's Internet Options > Accessibility window.
    At the moment, I can't confirm this occurs when viewing on another machine.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Very weird. Do these extra bold texts by change have both the inline styling as well as a css attached? I think I’ve seen a similar issue that revolved around bold text within bold text.
    Another solution may be to find and replace you bold styles with CSS classes.

  • Preview not displaying fonts correctly - Only question marks

    I'd like to report a problem we are experiencing viewing or printing the PDFs using Preview.
    We receive regularly PDF files from one of our clients that are created using PDF-XChange (on Windows Computers). The files are on PDF standard 1.4 and include the font Calibri (embedded on the PDF file and also installed on my MacBook Pro)
    On opening the files (in Lion) in Preview app. I only see question marks instead of the text.
    However these PDFs open correctly using Adobe Reader on the same machines.  The files also display correctly on iPhone, iPad, windows PCs, and on other Macs running Snow Leopard. This problems started to happen after we migrated to Lion (we could, and still can, open the files on macs running snow leopard).
    In Preview.app I can copy the "question marks" and past in text edit, where they do appear correctly!

    Well I found a few minor font problems which seem to have cropped up since the last system upgrade, but none of those were the font in question. Also, as I understand it, the whole point of PDF documents is that the fonts are embedded in the document so you do not have to have the fonts installed on your computer to view the PDF properly.

  • Safari 5.0.3 - will not render fonts correctly

    Visiting the site/hosting company I help with (www.orgsites.com), the center page content font face/size changes when the mouse is moved over this content area. Whereas the left & right sides do not change.
    We are attempting to update the DOCTYPE to HTML 4.01 standards and enclosing HTML element attributes within quotes correctly.
    ISSUE: the font face/size changes.
    WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN: the font face/size should REMAIN unchanged.
    NOTE this is only an issue with Safari v5.0.3 and Opera v10.63. Works 100% with IE v8.x, FF 3.6.12 and AOL v9.5.
    Does anyone know if this is a browser issue with Safari? If the DOCTYPE is NOT coded for the page, the font face/size does not change when the mouse is moved over the content section.
    -Thanks!

    Hi Bruce,
    Do you mean you can't install it?
    Or that Software Update fails some way?
    Do you have any error messages to help us?
    There are ways to send feedback to Apple on Safari, but it's like a one way street, you're more likely to get the problem solved faster by some helper here.
    Talking or taking it to an Apple Genius is another option.

  • Safari 7.1 does not display fonts correctly in youtube

    Since I upgraded to Safari 7.1 any YouTube videos do not display text or the time correctly. All of it looks like small boxes with a capital A in them. I found something on the forums the other day and I upgraded my Flash and I used Fusion Suitecase to clear font caches. That works for one session in Safari and I thought I had it fixed. The next session the same thing happened, so I cleared my font cache again, but it did not work. What am I to do. This is dumb! You get an upgrade and you have to run around trying to fix what it messed up. Never had this problem. BTW, Firefox displays everything correctly, but I don't like Firefox. Any help is appreciated.

    Hi ..
    Might be a third party font manager >  Re: All I see is the letter "a"
    If that's not the issue, check for duplicate fonts...
    Open Font Book located in your Applications folder.
    From the Font Book menu bar click Edit > Look for Enabled Duplicates
    If that doesn't help, it might be a third party font causing the capital A issue.
    From the Font Book menu bar click File >  Restore Standard Fonts

  • PREVIEW 4.1 not displaying fonts correctly.

    How does preview work?
    I preview my postscript files for proper separations before I send to the RIP.
    In 10.4 everything was fine. Now with 10.5 when I preview PS files the fonts particularly helvetica appear as helvetica condensed oblique.
    They RIP just fine but preview jacks up the "preview".
    Where does preview pull fonts from? How can I get them to display correctly?

    You may have a font conflict with the system version of Helvetica and a third-party version. However whatever you do, do not remove any of your system fonts as it may cause display problem with programs like Safari and other Apple applications. Are you using any font management like Extensis Suitcase or Linotype FontExplorer?
    My first port of call would be to clear your font caches using something like the free utility FontNuke, see link below. Quit all applications, run FontNuke, reboot. Let me know the outcome.

  • Mail not sending pics correctly

    why does my apple mail program send pics that can't be opened by PC users. sometimes if I send pictures as "icons" they will open on the other end but that only works once in a while. Any pictures I receive from anyone else open on my end but I have had problems sending pictures ever since I got a Mac. Is something set wrong on my mail program?? Thanks for any help. jetRed

    Hello,
    Please confirm whether you are in fact running 10.2.x (Jaguar)? Any advice anyone can provide will have to be in relation to that.
    Assuming your info is correct, let me suggest that you consider several things:
    Is this a new message or a forward?
    Are you placing all photo attachments last in the message, and NOT typing or using the Return key between them or after the last one?
    Are you using a Signature? If so, does your Signature have any HTML within it?
    Have the photos been saved to include a Mac type Preview or Thumbnail? If so try saving without any such specialized metadata.
    Keep in mind this forum is for Mail 2.0 and later, and you might get better answers in this forum:
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=740
    However, let me know if you post a new Topic in that forum, and I will follow you there with other thoughts, if needed.

  • Mac Mail not sending from correct account.

    I constantly use Mail to send and receive emails on my MacBook.
    On it I have three email 'accounts' - my me.com address (for formal emails to work, banks etc.), my "junk" address (for spam, gaming etc.) and my "home" address (for personal emails and everything else).
    When typing an email, if I choose to send it from a different account than the one I originally selected, I can just change it in the 'From' pop-down menu (under the 'To', 'Cc', 'Bcc' and 'Subject' fields).
    Recently though, for some reason when I want to send an email from my "home" address, it sends it from my "junk"one instead, even if I am sending it 'From' my "home" address.
    It still has my "home" address' signature, and not every time it does send from my "junk" one instead - rather it seems to send from both as it feels up to.
    This bothers me quite a bit, especially when I send an important email using my "home" address but it sends from my "junk" - both confusing and annoying me and the recipients.
    This only just started happening to me this past week. Does anyone else have the same issue, and any help would be greatly appreciated

    Some mail servers such as gmail will change the address when sending from one account through another account's server.
    Go into Mail's preferences under Accounts. Highlight each account and make sure the correct outgoing server is listed for that account with the correct user name and password. Each account should have their own. Check the box to use only that server with that account. Do this for all accounts.
    If you don't check the box and the server fails, it will move on to the next one in the list. Then you will get the address from that server even though you're sending from a different account.
    If the server does fail, you will get a selection box to try again or select another server.

  • Typekit not publishing font correctly - Regular is showing up as Italic in published page

    Typekit font (Source Sans Pro) is not rendering correctly when publishing site from Muse. I know not to expect it to preview correctly (sigh) but it is not publishing. Ex: Source Sans Pro Light 16 point is publishing/displaying in web page as ITALIC, not regular. HELP!
    This issue is cross-platform, PC and Mac.
    Looks great in Design, Preview all messed up, but PUBLISH shows font as displayed in Preview, NOT as displayed in Design.
    HOT TOPIC please!
