New Font

Hi,
is it possible to upload a new font to BC? I have to use DaisyWheel but BC doesn't support this font and in TypeKit there isn't the font neither.
thanks for your help

Have you got the web liceance to use the font Alex?
If not then you can not legally use it
To use fonts you have a liceance for that is not on say Typekit you can check out font squirel or google fonts. If it is not there find a matching font.
You can install fonts to the server using @font-face which font squirel offers up in the code examples it provides.
But as mentioned it needs to be a free open type font or you have purchased the liceance to use it.

Issue with adding new fonts in Lion

I'm trying install two new fonts on my Mac Book Air and cannot get it to allow me to add them to the Font Book. (I've just successfully added the same fonts on to my Mac Book Pro which runs Snow Leopard, so this is definitely a Lion issue.)
I've created a new font library and then tried adding the fonts to it but it refuses to validate the font saying that '1 serious error was found. Do not use.' Any ideas of how to remedy this as I urgently need to use the font?
Many thanks.

How to add a new font into Report Builder and Oracle Forms/Reports Server?

Hi,
I've searched the forum and can't find this being discussed.
My developers run Report Builder 10.1.2.0.2 on their XP laptops.
Their reports run (in production) on Oracle Forms/Reports Server 10.1.2.0.2.
This server runs on MS Windows 2003, SP2.
They've got a client who wants reports using the "Garamond Western" font.
So....how do I get this font onto the developer's Report Builder laptops, and onto the Oracle Forms/Reports Server?
I've moved various 'Garamond' fonts into C:\WINDOWS\FONTS on both the laptops and the server, but neither seem to recognize it.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks.
This answers 1/2 of my question.
The developer can now use Report Builder on his laptop, with the new fonts.
But when he moves this new Report to the Oracle Application Server/Forms-Reports Server, it fails to use the new fonts.
The Oracle App Server/Forms-Report Server is Version 10.1.2.0.2. It runs on MS Windows 2003, SP2.
I have installed the exact same fonts on this server, into C:\WINDOWS\Fonts.
I have used REGEDIT to change REPORTS_PATH....and placed C:\WINDOWS\Fonts; as the first value in this field.
I have then stopped and restarted the Forms-Reports Server.

New fonts look fine in Font Book don't work in apps

I need someone's help. I understand that to install new fonts I can either bring them into my font book (and chose whether they apply to a user or to the system) or can drag them directly into library/fonts or user/library/fonts. I am looking for some new foreign language fonts (e.g. hebrew - cursive, for example). I found some possibilities - ttf fonts - downloaded them, put them into my font book, they validated fine and within the font book they look right (i.e. as they are supposed to). I then quit the font book and go into my app, and it's not happening. When I go into MS word (2008), they don't all appear in the various menus (e.g. I made a font collection for one set, and only two appear in that collection), and when I go to use the ones that appear the font does not look much different from the latin alphabet font that was there before. So, I then tried Apple Mail and, while all the fonts appear in the font collection folder, when I choose any of them, same thing, my test letters are still in the same alphabet - size and intensity a little different, that's all.
Someone told me that for MS Office that there is a separate folder somewhere for office fonts - is that true - where is that? Also, why aren't any of my fonts doing what they're supposed to do in a native Mac application, Apple Mail, despite the fact that they look as advertised in my font books?
Frustrated & confused...

my test letters are still in the same alphabet
To generate non-Latin text in a modern OS you can't just change the font, you need to change the keyboard layout. Go to system prefs/international/input menu and check the box for Hebrew or whatever you want, plus the box for "show input menu in finder." Then select Hebrew in the "flag" menu at the top right of the Finder and type.
You need to make sure you use Unicode fonts. Also MS Word does not yet support correct Hebrew, so use another app. For that script, Mellel is the best. See the applications section of this note:

How do I add a new font to the list?

In "Tools/Options/Content/Advanced" how do I add a new font to the list? I have "Comic Sans MS" listed for one of the options, but the drop-down menu does not contain that option, so I can't select it for another font option.

Thanks for your reply.
As to your question: No, of course I wouldn't scroll down, it's in alphabetical order, so why would "C" for Comic Sans MS be anywhere but between B and D on the list?
Now a question for you: If person or group was going to alphabetize a list and then break it down into sublists, why would he, she, they not include headers for each portion and maybe even indent each font name, so a person might have a chance of getting the drift?
Also, how do you add new fonts to the list?

How do i download a new font from the web then add it so i can use it freely in 'word'?

I am having terrible difficulty using a font that i down loaded on to my macbook pro. I can see it in my font book but no matter what i do it does not appear in my 'Word' font library. Its in Font Book but it seems set to stay there and do nothing. Im tearing my hair out here! In simple simple simple terms can anybody give me step by step info on how to down load a new font then get it so it can be used just like all the pre list fonts?

Have you tried restarting the MBP? (Btw, you should post this question in the Snow Leopard forum -- there's nothing here specific to the MBP.)

How can I add a new font to pages?

I want to add a new font to page. How do I do that?

Download new fonts from the Internet (e.g. 1001fonts.com), and then open the file once downloaded. This will launch the application FontBook. It will ask "Install the font?" Click "OK", and you will be able to use the new font in Pages, TextEdit or other word processors. (You may have to re-start the application for it to recognize it.)
Bonus info: pressing command–t in many applications opens you computer's font control panel.

How to add a new font to font Book

I need to import a new font into font book for use. The font I have downloaded appears as a blank file (I don't know if I am explaining this correcly). When I try to locate this file thorugh the finder in appears greyed out and I can't select it. I have right clicked on it and specified that it be opened with font book; however, I cannot ever view it within font book. Perhaps it is not a valid file foramt for mac. Here's is a screenshot as the file appears on my desktop:

Please help me get this resolved. How can I be able to use this font?

Memory Leak with new Font()

Hello all,
Not sure if this is the right place to post this but here goes. I have a program that needs to change the font of at least 250,000 letters, however after doing this the program runs slow and laggy as if changing the fonts of each letter took up memory and never released it? Here is a compilable example, Click the button at the bottom of the window and watch the letter it is currently working on. You will notice that around 200,000 it will begin to not smoothly count up anymore but count in kind of a skipping pattern. This seems to get worse the more you do it and seems to indicate to me that something is using memory and not releasing it. I'm not sure why replacing a letter's font with a new font would cause more memory to be taken up I would think if I was doing it properly it would simply replace the old font with the new one not taking anymore memory then it did before. Here is the example: This program sometimes locks up so be prepared. If someone could maybe point out what is causing this to take up more memory after changing the fonts that would be great and hopefully find a solution :) Thanks in advance.

You're creating a quarter million distinct Font objects, and obviously you must be hanging on to all of them because each character is having its font set to the newly created object. So if you have 250k chars, you're forcing it to have 250k Font objects.
Since the only difference is that rand.nextInt(50) parameter, just pre-create 50 Font objects with 0..49, stick 'em in the corresponding elements in an array, and use rand.nextInt to select the Font object to use.That does make sense but it does that when the the program is first launched and doesn't lag. But the second and third time you change the letters font it seems to lag so if it wasn't taking up more memory the second time it should perform like it did when it first launched. I don't care to investigate any further. The real problem is almost certainly the quarter million Font objects. It could be that 250k is fine, but by the time you get to 500k, it has to do a lot of GC, and that's where the slow down is coming. You might even be able to make it work better with the code you have just by tweaking the GC parameters at startup, but I wouldn't bother. Fix the code first, and then see if you have issues.
Does creating a new font for each of those letters not replace the old font object? If it didn't use more memory the second and third time I don't think you would see the skipping in the counter and the slowing down of the iterations. So it must be remembering some of the old font objects or am I wrong?Using new always creates a new object. When you do it the second time around, and call letter.setFont(newFont), the old Font object is eligible for GC. That doesn't mean it will be GCed right away though. The JVM can leave them all laying around until it runs out of memory, and then GC some or all of them.

Changing Fonts to a new font not defined in OBIEE

We are doing a rebranding of our company and we would like to use a new font for all of our reporting. This font is not one that is currently listed in OBIEE. I have the .otf files, I am hoping these read the same as .ttf files, but I don't know where to place them nor can I find where to define them so the Dashboard, Answers and the pdf write picks them up.
Thats for any help,
Jay

Hi,
I'm afraid this will be very hard to implement. In fact, it hasn't much to do with OBIEE, but with your browser. The problem is that GillSans is not a standard font in a browser. So even when you edit all your css files and set GillSans as the default font, it won't be used because GillSans isn't implemented as a font in your browser.

How do I add new fonts I've downloaded to Microsoft Word? It's in my font book but not usable on MW.,

Typical issue with Font Book.
Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point.
OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
