Minuscule text displayed in Safari

I do not think this is related to the 10.4.7 update as another user alerted me to it first. Using Safari, any article page accessed from this list has the images OK, but the text is so tiny as to be almost invisible.
I tried the same pages with Firefox and they were fine. Ah, and I just tried the main Bangkok Post items and they are all the same.
Any suggestions please?

I did check those settings --
Standard Font - Times 16
Fixed-width font Courier 13
with Western (ISO Latin1) coding
all unchanged from what it has been for months. It seems odd that two users (hundreds of kms apart) here have the same display problem with only these pages and only in Safari.
I just checked my other machine here (eMac) which has not been updated to 10.4.7 and that is also showing this tiny text with pages of the Post in Safari.

Jaggy text display in Safari?

Hello,
I`ve got a problem with unsharp text in the Safari Browser.
This is a simple Adobe Edge HTML5 navigation with a hover animation.
But the Text, in this case a pictures of Text not rezised or anything, is displayed unsharp & jaggy in the Safari browser.
Firefox ist fine, as you can see in the Picture below.
Ist ther anything that I cat do, to prevent that? Any ajustments in Edge? Beside of just using Firefox^^
thanks for yous help and greetings from Germany

It might be those png files. Why don't you just use Text? I'm sure you'll find a webfont that suits your purpose.
It looks clearer in both FF (PaleMoon) and Safari)

Can anyone help me solve the problem of text displaying very rough on my new ASUS PA279Q display monitor running off my MacBook Pro?

This is regarding a brand new ASUS PA 279Q, 2560 x 1440 IPS monitor. I'm connected via mini display port (into thunderbolt port on MacBook Pro) to display port on ASUS monitor; using cable ASUS included with the monitor. Mid 2012 MacBook Pro…full specs at bottom of this post.
I have resolution set at 2560 x 1440 which is the native resolution according to the ASUS spec. I tried the other resolutions available in my System Preferences and text displayed rough with those settings too. I've tried adjusting contrast, brightness and sharpness via the ASUS control panel and didn't solve the problem. Also tried calibrating via Mac's system preferences/display and that did not improve text display either. All the text on this monitor (no matter what software I launch, Finder, InDesign, Illustrator, MS Word, Excel, VMWare Windows XP, Windows versions of Word, Excel, Acrobat, etc, all are consistently rendering text the same way --- ROUGH and with "HALOS" around each letter.
All point sizes of text and at various scales, display very rough on the screen. (My comparison is the retina display of my MBP and a Thunderbolt…so those two displays are my expectations.) I'm using the same MBP for both a Thunderbolt display (at work) and this ASUS at my home office.
On the ASUS it's not as noticeable when the text is on white backgrounds, but I'm a graphic designer and compose images with text all day everyday. Not to mention the specs on this ASUS PA279Q indicate it's built for the professional so I would expect better text rendering. I haven't even addressed color calibration and balance yet, because that won't matter to me if the text won't display any better than it is now.
I was so hopeful after researching all the specs on this monitor it would be a viable alternative to the glossy display of the Thunderbolt display. (Which, I do love the Thunderbolt display for it's clarity and how it displays crisp, clean text at all sizes. (This ASUS actually displays text decently if I increase the text so each letter is about 4" high. Which is pointless for practical purposes -- that'd be like doing page layout through a microscope!)
I kept holding off on getting a monitor for the home office thinking the Thunderbolt would be updated soon. I'd be sick if I dropped a grand on piece of 2011 technology only to learn a few days later an updated Thunderbolt display hit the market! Not to mention, I'm praying Apple comes out with a less reflective Thunderbolt display. The glare and reflection is the main reason I looked elsewhere for a large monitor; hence my asking for help. Hoping the ASUS text display issue can be worked out. My expectation is for it to display like the MBP retina and Thunderbolt display text. That possible?
Alternatively, I guess I could do the Apple Refurb Thunderbolt at $799. And see if there's a decent aftermarket anti-glare I could stick on it?
Thanks for reading my post. Hope someone can help; offer any suggestions? Words or wisdom?
Has anyone else had similar issues and figured out a resolution? Help!

I uninstalled those two items. It still runs slow on start-up and when opening safari, firefox, iphoto, itunes, etc. It's not snappy like it used to be. Any other ideas? Thanks.

Strange text display in pdf using adobe reader exported by Indesign CS5

Hi there,
I have export an interactive pdf from indesign CS5 PC version with version 7 update, and it looks fine in most of the PC and Mac Adobe reader.
But 2 of the computer had strange text display. One is the iMAC with latest version of Adobe Reader
<== you can see the text "78" and "454" are abnormal
But with the same computer using Safari with perview plugin is showing following result:
<==you can see the text are normal.
The pdf is embedded with following fonts and property:
Another Windows XP with Adobe Acrobat 9 will had same display as the iMac.
I ensure the Windows XP don't have the font installed with HelveticaNeue and the Mac is using OS Lion Bundle with that font.
Now the customer blame it is the problem of the pdf created by me and I had no idea how to explain to my customer and find out solution.
I had a trial version of CC but same result and no error during the export.
Any idea is highly appreciate. The customer hotline and the live chat is hopeless as they send me to this community to ask since I use CS5 not the latest version.
Regards,
Ichi

Thanks Willi,
I had the fonts of Helvetica Neue bold light etc which created by Adobe and the font was created in 1993,shown in font property.
my PDF output is set to interactive not the print one. Other settings are default.
the purpose of this PDF is for user to print out and read on website. The funny thing is print out had no problem at all with HP and Ricoh printer using PCL 6 driver.
Despite Safari, the strange font happened in only Adobe product, other PDF reader had no problem such as foxit reader, xchange reader.
I tried to not embed the font but not able to do indesign, search in Google, it said it always embedded. Also that font family is preloaded in Mac OS.
I can try any test if there is a way to find out the solution.
or what should I do so the PDF should display correctly in all computer
thanks a lot.

Pdf is not displayed in safari

How can I see a pdf in safari? the links don't open the pdf-files.

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Can I enlarge the text in the safari tool bar

I am operating 10.10. I would like to use a larger font for the text in the safari tool bar. I have not problem enlarging the content in the web pages, but I would like to use a larger font on the tool bar. Is that possible, and I how do I do it.
Thanks.

Not from any setting in Safari. You can upscale the display in the Display settings.
Click the Apple in the top left of your main display. Click System Preferences. In 'Display,' make changes. There is no setting to change any font size setting in Safari, aside from the page display font size in Safari.

Accidentally made website text display smaller, how do I undo it?

In both Safari and Firefox, when visiting a couple of websites, I accidentally hit some combination of keys and made the text display very small - it only seems to affect those two websites. I think it MIGHT have been when I was trying to do a long hyphen by hitting Opt/- Anyway, any ideas what I did, or how to undo it?
Thanks!

Staff? Text rendering incompatibility Safari 7.06 and Muse 2014.1.1.6 Websafe fonts render issue

Text rendering incompatibility
Safari 7.06 and Muse 2014.1.1.6
Websafe fonts render poorly when on top of a
‘Browser Fill’ has ‘Image added’ and ‘scrolling’ check box left unchecked’
or when
Any ‘composition is set below the text and composition is set to ‘pin’
Comparison Web safe fonts render
Chrome = all good
Firefox = all good
Safari running on ‘non-retina’ displays = bad
As mentioned these are websafe font / also occurs with self/hosted fonts
unfortunately client is viewing on Ipad that is non retina and uses Safari.
Any work around?
Thanks
Milton

Hi Zak
Thank you for your prompt response.
I have been reviewing this issue on a number of screens an Browsers – I realise the huge hassle of compatibility comments.
Below links and further explanation and screen shots
Thanks again
Milton
Web safe fonts (e.g. helvetica / arial) render poorly when:
Any ‘composition’ is set below the text and the 'composition' is set to ‘pin’
See first scroll page at www.edehorton.com
The top slideshow is 'pinned' and it is this action that creates the issue for text on the whole page.
It also occurs when text is on top of a ‘Browser Fill’ that has an ‘Image added’ and ‘scrolling’ check box left unchecked’
See first scroll page a www.edehorton.com/judaica.html
creates the issue for text on the whole page.
I can remedy these situations by ‘unpinning' the 'compostion’ or placing the ‘pinned' 'composition' above the text
or in the second instance by turning the ‘scrolling’ radio check button in ‘Browser fill’ on.
Screen snap shots below
Comparison 'Web safe font - Helvetica' plus 'Webfont' render
Chrome = all good / Firefox = all good /Safari running on ‘retina’ displays = all good Safari 5.06 on' non-retina' = all good
Safari 7.06 running on ‘non-retina’ displays = bad

Text messages in Safari are garbled on Mac Pro after Snow Leopard install

When reading or composing my Yahoo mail text messages in Safari on my Mac Pro after Snow Leopard, the wording is very garbled. Looks like o's, s's, c's, some caps, with lots of spaces intermixed. Messages look ok on Firefox, on same machine. New messages and reading sent messages look ok on my MacBook and MB Air. When cutting and pasting into something else (like this window), the text looks fine. I can compose and send messages that look garbled, but the right words and letters go out. HTML messages look ok. Any clues for solution?

I have this happening in bunch of different HTML pages. Here's a screenshot of the same page in Safari (Version 4.0.3 (6531.9)) and Mac OS X 1.6.1 side by side with Camino:
https://dl.getdropbox.com/u/362958/miscwebimages/Screen%20shot%202009-09-22%20at%2018.35.47.png
Camino renders the page correctly. Safari is really unusable with this problem. Tried switching to and from 64-bit mode in Safari, didn't help either.

Hi Gurus,
I have a report where i have my GL account hierarchy on my rows and my key figure in column. i have posting period on top of my key figure and my client wants to display the report as
jan, feb, mar etc till dec. the problem is when i run it through posting period it shows me 1, 2, 3 ...12 instead of text.
my key figure is populating value based on user exit and i cannot use other time fields like fiscal year/period. i cannot create 12 restricted key figures as my key figure is getting value from exit variable.
how do i change the text display for 1,2,3 .....12 to jan, feb, mar....dec. is there any sap exit text variable?
please help
thanks
surya

Ipod car audio text display

With hope someone has an answer! I have just brought a new car Mazda 6 along with updating my ipod to the 80gb model. My wish was to take my entire cd collection (quite extensive) to my car and never to use CD's or the delemma of which cd to take. Mazda offered as an accessory an ipod connector. The price tag was considerable however more than worth it in my mind. But how disappointing. I have no text display either on my ipod nor the cars sound system (Bose premimum). This would all be fine if I had stuck to my nano as it's limit of 1000 songs I had to make a decision on. With the 80gb and my entire collection impossible - no idea of the song title, artist etc and no way of chosing what I wish to hear. Not really interested in making playlists as there goes the element of suprise, back to limiting my selection and what the heck I could just as easy (if not more) grab some cds and take to the car. Surely there is a solution to the problem. I presume the reason why I don't get a display on my ipod (other than the Mazda logo) when I connect it is for driving safety reasons but still with hope someone out there can provide me with a solution.
Anticipated hope
'Em

Does it mean that once its fully charged the battery stops operating that the ipod powers up using the d.c. power source?
No. There is still a slight battery usage when plugged in.
Do you think it will affect the charging cycle or even the battery life of the ipod by keeping it plugged into the car audio unit using the cd ib-100?
Yes, but probably not drastically.
You should drain & charge the iPod fully once a month.

How to influence the text display of key figures in the interarctive DP

Hello all,
Does anyone know if there is a possibility (BADI, etc.) to change the text display of key figures (not characteristics!) in a planning book/data view?
I know that you can define a free text in the data view but still, this is only one fixed text and it cannot be changed.
Reason for the request: We would like to use the same key figure (and hence, indicate 2 different texts) for two different purposes (in different selections) without having to create a new data view.
Kind regards,
Klemens

if you dont want a new data view and might even go to the extent of creating a user exit for this ... here is an idea
- just create auxillary KF ( or use spare Temp KF depending on what you want to do with the data in the view) for each of these KF with the text
lets say you have KF1 and KF2 - create KF1A and KF2A
Make sure KF1A = KF1 and KF2a = KF2
Now depending on user you can display KF 1 and KF2 or KF1a and KF2a depending on the user by using macros USER() and ROW_VISIBLE(0)
