Occasionally text is coloured and blurry

For 2 days now occasionally I will see some text on web sites that appears to be blurry and/or off-coloured. I've capped a screen and have posted it here.

copy Massupload Automated Rate Processing if copy radiobutton is selected remaining should be disabled.
but for me the radiobuttons are displaying one by one i have to display it in the above sequence manner.
kindly send me the steps how to achieve this functionality.
Thanks & Regards,

data nodeinf type ref to if_wd_context_node_info.
data node type ref to if_wd_context_node.
node = wd_context->get_child_node( 'ZRADIO' ). "ZRADIO is the node name
nodeinf = node->get_node_info( ).
data lt_vs type table of WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE.
data ls_vs type WDR_CONTEXT_ATTR_VALUE.
ls_vs-text = 'Copy'.
ls_vs-value = '1'.
append ls_vs to lt_vs.
You dont need to write this code. just give '1' in the key to select porperty of the radio button.'
and create on label also for each radio button. three labels for three radio buttons.
and as you said if i create an attribute name flag type wdy_boolean and if i bind it readonly property of all radiobuttons.suppose if i select copy radiobutton remaining two will be disabled.
actually it will disable all the three radio buttons.
but in anycase your requirement is that user should not be able to select the other radio buttons once he has selected one.
that requirement will be fulfilled by this.
thanks

Tab text is yellow and blurry and unreadable on anything but darkest color tab

Tabs suddenly appeared colored yellow, white or green with unreadable blurry yellow text. Only way to read tab text is to change each individual tab to darkest grey but text still blurry. I want to get back to tabs the way they were with black text.

That problem is most likely due to your "ColorfulTabs" extension. There is a newer version ('''''version 18.1''''') on the author's home page, but no guarantee that it will correct your problem (I do not use ColorfulTabs). I found the link following on the Mozilla add-ons page for ColorfulTabs ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/colorfultabs/ ).
*ColorfulTabs homepage - http://www.binaryturf.com/free-software/colorfultabs-for-firefox/
There is also a link on the Mozilla add-ons page for that extension (in the right margin) for "Support site" where there are numerous recent posts about tabs being hard to read or unreadable. I suggest that you add your complaint/problem to their forum.

I am converting a .docx file to a pdf and the text is coming out blurry

I am trying to convert a .docx file to a pdf and the text keeps coming out blurry. Some sentences seem to be bolded in the pdf as well. All the colored text seems like there's a shadow behind it and all the text in bold seems extra blurry. I am saving the file as a pdf. I tried to print the file as a pdf but it kept crashing. I have adobe acrobat pro and distiller, but I'm not savy about which program does what.
Thanks for any help!

If you are trying to convert a Word file, ensure the text is in 100% black only.
To create PDF's there are hundreds of different combinations that can be used, but only a few will give you a good 'print ready' file, which is what I think you may be after.
You may have font issues that are stopping the text looking sharp.
If you have Distiller, you can try to print as .ps (save as postscript), load distiller up and choose one of the high quality settings in the pop down menu.
If you are working on a Mac you can drag and drop the .ps file direcetly on the dock icon for distiller, or if you are running Windows you will need to navigate to the file via the menu bar (you will need to know where you have saved your .ps file).
There may be other issues with the original file format that is causing problems with your PDF creation.
Let me know how you get on.
Cheers

Missing occasional texts to and from android users

I Have discovered that one android user has not been receiving some of my texts. About 2/5 will say sent but will never arrive to recipient. I tested varying lengths of texts and content (emojis, pictures) and could not find any discernible pattern.
Then I discovered that occasionally texts from a different android user would say sent from their phone, but never arrive at mine.
I do not have iMessage turned, recently or currently, nor did either of the android users have iMessage turned on on any previous phones.
AS far as I know, there are only two phones I'm having issues communicating with, but it is very hard to determine whether myself or other are NOT receiving texts for obvious reasons.
THis his problem does seem to have only begun when I updated my operating system to 8.1.3.
Someone please help me, this is getting really confusing. I've tried searching both Apple and android forums and habe not found any solutions yet.
Thank you in advance.

Another option to try for thses sorts of issues is a Reset.
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

I am using a Mac and when I save my files as a jpeg, the files become much smaller, and consequently darker and blurrier. What can I do to fix this?

I am using a Mac and when I save my files as a jpeg, the files become much smaller, and consequently darker and blurrier. What can I do to fix this? I have tried to figure out how to chat with someone at Adobe, but they certainly don't make it easy to do. At the moment, this program is useless to me. Very depressing....

Hello,
I would like to inform you that not all the browsers and online PDF readers support copying text from a PDF. If you have opened the PDF online, please download PDF file to your computer and then open the file in Adobe Reader.
Please share a screenshot if the issue still persists.

Problem with colours and tonalty in LR 1.1 conversions

Im having hard times trying to get great colour and tonalty out of LR conversions. Some times it seems that its just impossible to get there where I want with LR. No matter how much I tweak sliders in Calibration Tab or in Colour Adjustment Tab, subtle tones and colours are just impossible to get.
Example
Both pictures have been edited in converters only resizing and text has been inserted in photoshop. Picture taken with Konica Minolta 7D.
http://luotokuva.fi/noudettavat/Oranssi_2.jpg
1. Under cloud there is subtle colour gradient with DxO conversion that LR conversion lacks
2. Colour transitions in DxO versions have much more life. There is just one tone on lake in LR vesion.
3. Suns reflection in LR conversion clips and is ugly. Again DxO verson has far more natural tonalty.
For those who believe they can do better job with LR conversion here is the raw file for them to play.
http://www.luotokuva.fi/noudettavat/PICT0906.zip
I hope LR conversions would be better because programs usability is far better than DxOs.
-Sampsa Kaijaluoto - Finland

The problem is not in the tone, but in the lack in the number of tones. I can change the colors, but i can't get the colors to slide in a perfect gradient. Look these images:
This is how the area around the sun should look (Canon DPP)
http://jkphoto.pp.fi/upload/sun_dpp.jpg
And this is how Lr converts it with defaults:
http://jkphoto.pp.fi/upload/sun_acr.jpg
In past i have done accurate profiles for my cameras to ACR with the color checker and calibration script and calibration has no effect on how the tones just clip off.

Find same type with same colour and height in the document

Hi,
is it possible to select text with the same colour and height and anything else as the text which is already selected in CS4. I know that this tool exists in freehand but I can't find this tool in CS4. F.E. I have selected white text, bold, height 12, Arial and I want that ILCS4 finds any similar text and selects it so that I can edit this text.
Thanks
Regards
Uli

Hi Paul,
thanks for the reply. I tried already the things you proposed, but how do you select only the text with the format as I described before and not all text or any other element with white fill colour. I only want to select white text, height 12, arial, bold. Is it possible to select only these text format anf nothing else in the documant. So I need a tool to make more fine selections possible, especialy to find same text format.
Regards
Ulrich

Setting that makes black text look colour to a printer

A quick sorry for not being totally on the ball with indesign (cs4), so please help me with simple wording if you can help as I am not a professional.
I created a colour booklet which was fine until I was asked to do it all again but this time with the outside cover being colour and the rest of the pages inside black and white. so this I did by changing all text, boxes, strokes etc in to black (not rich black just 100%K) and ran the jpgs through Photoshop to make them greyscale, so far so good. At this stage everything was as I needed it to be so I hit the export and saved a PDF version and sent the file. Now for the reason for doing this. My friend soon realised that printing colour pages on their works professional multi function printing device is expensive, as colour pages are charged for at higher price per copy compared to Black and white by the machines operator. Now for the problem: The booklet is being printed with a colour front cover and the rest is in black and white as I wanted it to be, but as far as the printer is concerned it is seeing the black text as colour so is charging for it. Ouch.
Of the few things I know of preferences I have made sure that it is not set to output all blacks as rich black which I thought would be the cure but it would not seem to be. I am at a loss to understand the other output settings or other stuff which may be telling the printer to use the colour cartridges instead of just the black. Help Please
If it is of help I made and exported a single page file in the same way with just a greyscale jpg on it and that printed just fine with the printer charging it as a black and white page as it should so the problem realy is in how the text is being seen.

OK, so where we are at the moment.
over the holiday I had the reason to re-format my computer which isn't such a bad thing as I got to reload Indesign which should have corrected any problems in the indesign preferences ( I would Hope) and set everything to its default:
On opening indesign for the first time I changed the appearance of black setting to display and output all blacks accurately.
I went in to bridge and set the suit colour settings to Europe general purpose 2 and synchronised.
As it looks now: I made a new file where I typed one word in black (Helo)
I checked the typed word with the separations preview, turning off the black and cmyk and the typed word disappeared which is a good thing as this means there is no other colour present on the page except 100%K.
I saved and exported the file to PDF as Press Quality, (the only other box ticked on the general page was the optimise for fast web view which I left alone and unchanged) I left all other pages in the export area unchanged from the defaults produces by the Press Quality preset
I sent the file off and guess what: the printer saw it as colour and charged it as colour.

IWeb- website text appears thick or blurry

Hi--When creating my website (web.mac.com/cadirect) the text looks nice and clean in iWeb, but viewed on-line (from my MacBook OR other computers...) the text looks thicker and/or a bit blurry or fuzzy. Any suggestions?

Ok, then that's because of the way Safari renders text as opposed to the Windows browsers. The one that looks the way you expect it to on all browsers is because it's an image and images are generally displayed the same everywhere.
While the text looks like you want it to when converted to an image, it ends up taking longer to download. Plus, if the user wants to enlarge the font on a page using the browser's controls, they won't be able to because it's an image. So it's really a matter of how you want it to look. There's a way to force iWeb to render text as an image but your site will be slower. You can have the text currently displaying as an image display as text, but it will look different depending on the browser you use.
This isn't a new thing, either. That browsers display content differently has been something driving web designers crazy for years upon years. Welcome to their world

Unwanted text outline colour in highlighted button state

Hi DVDSP geniuses and much thanks in advance!
I'm getting unwanted colour at the edges of text in buttons in selected and activated states. I'm using a non-layered menu and a greyscale jpeg for background, a greyscale jpeg for overlay with simple colours.
The overlay is black text on white and I'm creating buttons from the text. In the selected and activated states for buttons unwanted, pixelated outlines appear on the edges of the text, often in a colour I haven't selected for any of these states.
Can anyone help please?
Many thanks

I usually prefer picts or tifs for overlays. Are the pixels that you are seeing jaggedy edge types text edges or more like you are getting a glow? The edge of text can be a bear, but a drop shawod or stroke may help. (Did you do this in Photoshop) Also some text types/colors are more prone to issue (smaller fonts).
As to the color, did you somehow assign a different map set to the buttons? You can have three sets on a menu and if somehow adjusted a set for a button it could happen....(are the colors consistent on the menus, meaning it is always red or blue, let's say, on the menu where you expected yellow? (used three colors in case three sets snuck in.)

Change Finder Colours and Appearance.

Change Finder Colours and Appearance.
Hi! I was just wondering if anybody knows how to change the appearance [specifically the colours of background and text] of the finder?
Either natively or through some kind of plugin or extension or tweak?
I personally am finding black-text-on-bright-white very jarring and straining on my eyes during long periods of file organization.
Through other applications, I have lately found that having neutral-coloured text on black background is VERY easy on my eyes, to read, for long periods.
I first found this out by happy-accident in adobe reader, which has the option to switch background and text colours to your preference for reading. Then I found a great google chrome extension called "Change Colors" which allows you to pick the background and text colour on every page.
I have found these to be a huge cure for eye-strain for me, for things which require me to read and concentrate on them.
If I could do this with finder too, I would be very happy.
I think there must be a solution. Even TERMINAL allows one to change colours of text+bg.
I have done some googling around, but no solution is apparent to me.
Thank you very much in advance for any help, I appreciate it.
And happy holidays, if you are lucky enough to have a holiday

Thanks Barney. I do see your point, really.
But then again, would it really be a massive coding / graphical leap to have this as an option on the finder?
While I am a simpleton / no-nothing person in terms of designing computer applications ;
I imagine it's not a video-game proportion exercise in interactive graphical engineering,
to add the option to be able to select your own colours on the finder?
I would personally have a black background with a neutral coloured green for the text.
For me, this option is a big eye-strain saver with other applications, as I mentioned above.
I'd love to see this become available with the finder, and I'm sure many other people would too.
I've seen various requests for this on the finder, and even on the Windows 7 forums regarding the windows file-explorer.

CS 5 Text Tool - Colour

When I select the text tool in CS5 32 bit version and click on the colour tab I am only able to select white, grey or black. If I select any other colour and click OK when it appears in the new colour box it always reverts to grey. When using the 64 bit version of CS5 it works perfectly! I am using Windows 7 Home Premium. Is this a limitation in the 32bit version? Many thanks.

The defaults for File - New can be matched to what's in the clipboard if there's an image in there.
In other words, if you were to copy a image containing colors into the clipboard, the File-New dialog will start out as RGB by default, as well as the size of that image.

Changing Colour and font of individual OAF pages

Hi,
Is it possible to change colour and font for individual OAF pages?I am aware of CUSTOM.xss but that changes it for the whole application.I want to make the changes for specific pages.
Thanks,

Try using HTML:
Set the text to:
area.setText("<html>My <b>Text</b> Here</html>");
and see if the word Text is in bold. If so, then you can go as far as you want using HTML tags to set bold, color, etc.

Fuzzy and Blurry Prints HP 4650

Hi,
I have a HP Color LJ 4650 that prints fuzzy and blurry photo's. Black text is ok. Have replaced magenta and yellow cartridges as well as the transfer belt. Recalibrated the printer but problem persists. Toner cartridges are all original HP's. Any thoughts on this issue, it could be mechanical and it could be electronic. Don't want to just start swapping out parts.Would appreciate any help.
Thanks,

Hello LaserAge. I understand your photos are printing blurry.
What size are the photos you're printing and what is their resolution?
What application are you printing from? Does the issue persist if you print from a different application?
What version of Windows are you printing from?
I'll keep an eye out for your response. Have a good day.
Please click the white star under my name to give me Kudos as a way to say "Thanks!"
