OCR-B displays the wrong font

New Mac Mini OS-X 10.9.4
Pages 4.3 and 5.2
OCR-B-10 BT Bitstream TrueType
TT0646Z_.TTF
My license for OCR-B (Optical Character Recognition) font fails in Pages 5.2.
The top illustration is what it's supposed to look like (Pages 4.3) and
the bottom illustration is what happens in 5.2. One is not a variant of the other.
They're different fonts.

Photoshop recognizes the correct font as does Pages 4.3. Pages 5.2 and
oddly TextEdit get it wrong. What's up?

The saying is 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'.
By reversing the animals, you can get the whole alphabet into a coherent sentence of only 32 characters. Drop one "the" and the plural of fox is foxes, but the plural of dog is dogs saving one "e". There are other, shorter versions, but the torture factor goes way up - I think one version features latin - and they're not based on the common phrase.

Acrobat X displaying the wrong font

I've been using Acrobat X for a few weeks. The other day it installed an update. Since then my documents aren't displaying the font used by the orginal Office 2010 documents.
If I create the PDF from Office 2010 by selecting "save as Adobe PDF" from Word or Excel file menu then Acrobat X renders it using Adobe Serif MM instead of Times New Roman. It seems like a close enough match.
If I create the PDF in Office using "save as" and choose the PDF file type then Acrobat X will substite Adobe Sans MM for Times New Roman,
If I send this to a person who is using Acrobat 9 it is being displayed as Times New Roman.
Does anyone know how I can make this work? We have a lot of pdf documents that were created using Office 2007 & 2010.

Hi Louis,
If I understand you correctly, you are saying that problem started with updating Acrobat 10.0.1 to 10.0.2 and it is there in both Save as "PDF" and Save as "Adobe PDF"
With Save as Adobe PDF, you see Adobe Serif MM font and
With Save as PDF, you see Adobe Sans MM font.
where the actual font is TimeNewRoman.
Am I correct?
Also when you say that "If I send this to a person who is using Acrobat 9" do you mean that you are sending above Acrobat 10.0.2 created PDF to a person who will view this in Acrobat 9? And there this PDF shows correct font. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I tried this for a sample file with Acrobat 10.0.2+Office 2010 Pro Plus+Win7 SP1 but couldn't able to reproduce. So based on above queries we will investigate it more. If possible please share your source file also (you can upload it on acrobat.com)
Thanks,
Vishal Gupta

Dreamweaver CS4 MacOS X dialog boxes are displaying the wrong font

Just installed a free font I needed to use for a graphic design project. Opened up Dreamweaver to do a different project and found that all the text in the dialog box was being displayed in this font.
This is pretty maddening to look at - how do I change it back?

Er, uninstall the font?
Installing a new font should not do that to Dreamweaver. It sounds as though you have overwritten a system font.

Calendar app icon is displaying the wrong date

For some reason on my iPhone's homescreen the icon for the Calendar app has today started displaying the wrong date.
It should show today's date, Monday 6th but instead it reads Sunday 5th.
What confuses me is that the phone does know the date is Monday 6th as the lock screen shows it correctly and also when I actually load the Calendar app it starts on the right date. Also, when I load the multi task bar the Calendar app icon there is correct. See the attached photo, which shows the Calendar app on the home screen (faded, middle left) displaying yesterdays date Sunday 5th, while the app icon in the multi task bar is correct, Monday 6th.
Syncing the calendar with my iMac does not correct the error. Equally, turning the phone off and on again has not sorted it.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing the fault? And more importantly how to correct it?
Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion DaVBMan, sadly it didn't work. The only thing that did work was to wait until midnight and it corrected itself. In the mind of the phone it lived a whole day twice and then skipped one completely in order to get back on track. Very odd and also I have since discovered it has happened to a few of my friends too.
It's not happened again so I have no idea what so ever what caused it. Fingers crossed it never recurs.

Mail app displays the wrong Inbox when you open it.

This problem can be easily reproduced if you have more than one email account configured in iOS 4.x
It should be extremely simple to fix with the next update. I see that this same problem has been mentioned before, but I couldn't update that thread because it's "archived." If you want Apple to fix this, please report the issue to Apple using one or more of the links below:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html (not sure if iPad Mail app is affected)
Here's what I submitted...
Subject:
Simple software design issue in Mail app.
Feedback Type:
Design/Ease of Use
Comments:
Thanks for your work on making iOS better and better with each update! There is no option to provide general iOS feedback, so I'll submit this under "iPhone" and "iPod." I'm currently using the latest iOS (4.3.1).
The native Mail app in iOS has had the Unified Inbox feature since iOS 4.0, which is very useful. However, there is a minor design flaw that could be easily resolved with a software update.
My setup:
I have 3 Exchange accounts on my device (Hotmail, Gmail[Default], Work). The Hotmail Inbox is empty at least 98% of the time because my Gmail account periodically downloads the messages. The only reason I have the Hotmail account entered on my device is to make sure I can see a message in "All Inboxes" even before my Google account retrieves it. On my device, the Gmail account is set as default for Mail and Contacts.
The problem:
I never intentionally select the Inbox for the Hotmail account because it should almost always be empty. I would simply view "All Inboxes." Still, half the time I open the Mail app, it shows the empty Hotmail Inbox. This is very annoying!
I finally figured out how to reproduce it consistently:
(must have more than one account configured)
1) Launch the Mail app and back-up to the screen that shows the list of accounts / Inboxes (I usually try to leave it here when I'm done, hoping to see that screen the next time I open Mail).
2) Without selecting a specific account or Inbox, push the Home button to exit the Mail app.
3) Kill the Mail process from the multi-tasking menu.
4) Open Mail again
Mail will show whichever Inbox comes immediately after "All Inboxes", even if it's not your default account. In my case, it starts in the empty Hotmail Inbox every time...a folder that I never intentionally select. Each time, I have to go back to the list and tap "All Inboxes."
So, if I leave Mail on the root screen before killing the process, it consistently displays the wrong Inbox the next time I open it. If I select an Inbox or "All Inboxes," it will remember that selection and show me that screen the next time I open Mail.
What it should do:
When Mail doesn't know which Inbox to display, it should...
A. Start on the root screen with the list of accounts and Inboxes (preferred option).
or B. Start in "All Inboxes" (secondary preference).
or C. Start in the Inbox of the default account (not preferred, but better than showing an empty/unused Inbox).
Thank you!

Try this...
Launch the Mail app.
Navigate to the "Mailboxes" page (the page that lists all of your accounts).
Tap "Edit" in the top right corner.
Scroll down to the bottom section of the page, titled "ACCOUNTS".
Drag the triple-bars on the right to reorder the accounts listed. The first account listed will be the one that the app launches to.
Hope this helps, I went crazy trying to figure that out and it worked for me.

How to display the COURIER font in the Form

Hi all,
 
I created a form with some items of "Courier New" font. Later I noticed that if the "Standards and Formats" in the "Regional and Language Setting" in the client PC was set to "Arabic", the data is not displayed in the items with the specified font. Instead, the data looks like of Arial font.
 
Is there a way to display the Courier font in the Form, if the regional setting was set to Arabic in the client side?
 
Thanks in advance.

Which version of Forms are you running? Webforms or Client/Server?
regards,
Heike

Has Mozilla changed the way Firefox displays @font-face enbeded fonts? The site I'm codeing works in Safari, Chrome, and IE, but Firefox 8.0.1 doesn't display the embeded font.

Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on my blog, but other browsers are.

I have a web designer issue. Firefox is not displaying the correct font color on the header in my blog. Explorer, Chrome, and Safari have no problems. The page is in css but this particular section has html code o designate color. The code is as follows:
blog
Though all other browsers display the light orange color designated, Firefox displays white. Strangely, if if retype the code by spelling out a color, Firefox displays it correctly. i.e.
blog
... will give me black. You can see the effect by viewing the link below and looking at the word "blog" in the header, which should be light orange but is not in Firefox.

Actually it also seems to work in the current Firefox 4 beta as it is.
The code is not right though - the correct syntax for the color attribute with hex values is with a # at the start, so:
color="#FF9966"
It might work in Firefox 3.x if you change that.

How to fix iPhone 5 from displaying the wrong time

Work up the day is daylight savings time and come to find out my iPhone was displaying the wrong time tried to switch from manual and automatic quick to see if it worked and nothing turned it on airplane mode still didn't work and I noticed I'm also having problems with my service please help

If it is on automatic time, then the time is received from the carrier. If you say you are having "service" problems, I am assuming you mean your carrier. It could be an overall carrier problem. Contact them.

Mouse cursor displays the wrong icon

My cursor still changes based on the context, like hovering over a link or in a text field, but displays the wrong icon. After focusing a text field, the cursor is a reggular arrow in the text editor and turns to the text staff outside of it when it should be an arrow.
I just did a fresh install of 10.6.8 on a crucial m4 - ct256m4ssd
I FOUND THAT RESIZING THE MOUSE CURSOR IN THE UNIVERSAL ACCESSS PREFERENCES temporarily restores the cursor to a size-adjusted mouse, until I do something like click in a text field.

just re-install the os

Why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

why does the iphone 5 always display the wrong time

I had similar problem. My iPhone was always about 3 minutes faster than the correct time here in the UK which I found to be very irritating. It just came to a head because here in the UK we have just changed from British Summer Time back to standard GMT. This actually worked automatically except that the iPhone time still showed it to be about 3 minutes faster than GMT. However I have now cured the problem (almost) by going to
Settings/General/ Date & Time/ and then selected the "Set Automatically" button.
The clock then immediately jumped back 3 minutes and now the iPhone time is only about 10 seconds slow which is good enough for me.

IPhone displays the wrong song information

Hello,
Recently I have noticed that my phone often displays the wrong songs and information. What I mean is, when I tap on an artist, it shows the wrong songs. For example, if I listened to AC/DC and then try to change it and listen to Alice in Chains, the phone still displays the AC/DC songs. This is very aggravating and I seem to be the only person who has this problem. I checked the song info on itunes and everything is correct. Any ideas?
Thank you,
Brad

This has been happening to me for while now and would love to get an answer or fix.

Reader does not use or display the embedded fonts

I have an odd problem with both Reader X and XI. Neither one will use the embedded fonts when opened from an email. I can forward from that PC to any other PC and the fonts will display correctly. The HP is Windows 7 64 bit. I can view the document that was forwarded through it on XP, Win7 Win8 or Ipad and it displays correctly. The "use local fonts" is uncheck but it seems to ignor the change.

I think you need to add this to the list of applications and the action to take on the type of content. This can also be managed in the about:permissions page. [[Permissions Manager - Give certain websites the ability to store passwords, set cookies and more]]

Safari doesn't display the correct fonts.

Safari doesn't display all fonts correctly. All that is displayed is a boxed A. See screenshot. All the other browsers (Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Omniweb, Camino) don't have this problem. I tried clearing the cache of Safari as well as the system font cache. I use FontExplorer X Pro 3.1 to manage my fonts. No other software has this kind of problems.
