Odd rendering in idvd - bad fonts

Idvd is taking a good FCE .mov file and putting it together with odd shaped blocks of text - ie all my titling from live title is good except for 2 titles that are blown way up . they all come from the same template
2 Every time i try to use idvd it wants to use a font called algerian - the only problem is tat algerian ***** and isnt anywhere on my machine- i have combed all directories looking for it . how do i tell idvd not to try to use that font?

Hello smokn
I'd recommend you install the Infinality patches:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … d_packages
The package 'freetype2-infinality' is in the AUR (if you're on a 64bit system you'll need lib32-freetype2 from multilib)
You'll get notifications of conflicting packages on the system, this is notmal, the Infinfality suite will replace a lot of font types.
Keep in mind this is just a recommendation for English font types, it's what I use to ensure my system renders fonts properly and hasn't failed me on any of my machines yet.

EtreCheck saying Bad Fonts?

My mac has been running slow lately. Just ran EtreCheck and it's saying I have bad fonts? Does anyone know why or how to fix this?
Thank you so much!
EtreCheck version: 2.0.11 (98)

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line

to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.

Firefox 3.6.6 Renders the "Lucida Sans" font always in bold

There seems to be a problem with Firefox rendering the "Lucida Sans" font. It doesn't seem to be able to find the regular or normal weight font and renders it instead in bold.
I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 (essentially Windows7).
I have tried reinstalling all of the Lucida Sans fonts in the font directory from another Windows Server 2008 R2 computer and that makes no difference in how the fonts are rendered.
If anyone could provide me with some help I would greatly appreciate it!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I noticed it upgrading from Firefox 3.6.4 to 3.6.6

Had the same problem with Firefox 4.0. I had previously installed Adobe CS4, now uninstalled and have CS5 instead. Fixed the problem by reinstalling the font. Google 'download lucida sans' and you can find the .ttf file easy enough. Here is the one I used:

Font book - window pop up that says bad font

So I got my mac back after the harddrive was erased so it was brand new. I uploaded a bunch of fonts from before and I was trying to install them all. Then my computer got slower and when I would start my mac a window would pop up saying BAD FONT so I would go to the direct place and erase the font.
Is there a way to restart font book to its old settings before installing font?
or know how to find all bad fonts?
I validated the file from library-fonts and my font folder i brought in and erased the ones that had a x saying error but I still get the window.
and what is the normal amount of fonts we can have active.
also when I click on disable I don't see a difference.
I just erased the font folder I had brought in and there is no different in the amount of fonts in font book.
sorry for the questions, hope I make sense.
thanks
I had posted this in macbook pro but cmcsk told me about posting here in hopes that I could get more help.

Here's a great article for you . . .
It's a little long, but the most important stuff about the fonts you need
is in the first 25% of the article. The article, by Kurt Lang, will tell you which fonts you really need, etc.
http://www.jklstudios.com/misc/osxfonts.html
The only thing still giving me pause, is you statement that you're clicking on the "Mac HD
from the computer." If you are seeing the icon the Mac, and the word "computer" totally
within the Font Book pane, then that's fine to delete fonts marked with a warning.
Just make sure you read the beginning of the article first, OK?

Bad font detected

After installing updates about a week ago on my Leopard system, font book give "Bad Font Detected" error message while booting and deactivates many of my fonts.
I have to go back in and manually activate them using my font management software. After the fonts are activated everything works fine. Can I turn font book off so it doesn't do this?

You do not want to disregard an error message. You need to fix the actual core issue.
Have you recently run disk utility and repaired permissions? This would be step 1.
Then I would check for any 3rd party fonts that are not fully Leopard compatible.
Then I would check the console logs for the reasons for the problem.

Bad Font Detected pop up

Hey newb here, I am attempting to install Leopard on a g4 powerbook and after install worked its mojo a Bad Font Detected pop up keeps coming up and it doesnt want to get past this point.
Any help out?
THx

So I booted into safe mode and removed the font from System/Library/Fonts but the error still appears with the same font, is there somewhere else or hidden font files or something?

The Bad Font thread...

Hi guys,
I just went through more than a thousand fonts, just to find that one that was messing up my browser.
Guilty font: "Mark"
I deactivated it and now everythings cool again.
I searched this forum at first but found that several users had problems with different fonts. Maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea to group all "bad fonts" together in one thread. This could all spare us some valuable time. Post as you wish...
Greetz!

a THOUSAND thank you's...
thanks for the tip. My bad font was Arial. Seems strange since it's a common font, but deactivating it did the trick. It was so frustrating for weeks because I couldn't read basic text on some sites, but never had time to research the problem...
This is my first time exploring this forum, and it seems pretty helpful! Although Safari sounds like a nightmarish program for a lot of people. Other than this issue, mine works great - knock on wood!
So, thanks!

[SOLVED] Bad font rendering after last update (pango issue?)

I am getting very strange font rendering problem. Look at the screen below. It only affects gtk windows (as you can see below HTML text is currently displayed, but url bar and context menu is not). I belive it appeared after upgrading pango package to 1.32, but downgrading it as instructed here (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=151886), didn't help. Does anybody know what can it be? Any hints where to look for the solution?

[SOLVED] Bad font rendering and overlapping since last update

Hi all! Since the last updates I'm getting font rendering problems. I'm seeing something like this in lots of applications:
See the "ce" in Facebook, those letters are kinda overlapped! This happens in Nautilus too, for example in the word "devel". I'm using the Ubuntu patches for font rendering, but actually I have problems even with the stock packages.
I'm on a fresh install right now (I really needed to clean the old one, too much experimenting xD) and I keep having this problem.
Can anyone help me?
SOLVED I downgraded pango from 1.32.1-1 to 1.30.1-1 and everything went back to normality

Bad fonts rendering especially in Chromium

Hi all, languages like Arabic.. doesn't render well at all in chromium as well as English (it's little thin but readable) ..
I've got ttf-ms-fonts installed.. but no good.
Can anybody help me, please ?

Hello smokn
I'd recommend you install the Infinality patches:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … d_packages
The package 'freetype2-infinality' is in the AUR (if you're on a 64bit system you'll need lib32-freetype2 from multilib)
You'll get notifications of conflicting packages on the system, this is notmal, the Infinfality suite will replace a lot of font types.
Keep in mind this is just a recommendation for English font types, it's what I use to ensure my system renders fonts properly and hasn't failed me on any of my machines yet.

[SOLVED] Qt 4.7 - 4.8 and bad fonts hinting.

Hi, since the upgrade to qt 4.8, font rendering of qt applications seems very bad to me.
Before the upgrade, firefox and konqueror looked the same, here is now,
I tried in graphicssystem native and raster:

I tried autohinter too, but gtk apps (cairo) seems always better, what happened?
My .fonts.conf:

I casually managed to solve this issue by playing with fontconfig settings.
I'm really not sure if this is the correct way, but now i've the same font rendering i've had before qt 4.8 with hintstyle=hintslight.
My Steps are:
yaourt -S freetype2-infinality
* do not install fontconfig-infinality
edit ~/.fonts.conf as follows
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM 'fonts.dtd'>
<fontconfig>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="rgba">
<const>rgb</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="hinting">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="autohint">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle">
<const>hintfull</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="lcdfilter">
<const>lcddefault</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="antialias">
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
the trick seems:hinting+autohint+hintfull=hintslight (!?)
edit /etc/profile.d/infinality-settings.sh and add/replace with those values:
SET_XFT_SETTINGS=true
XFT_SETTINGS="
Xft.antialias: 1
Xft.autohint: 1
Xft.dpi: 96
Xft.hinting: 1
Xft.hintstyle: hintslight
Xft.lcdfilter: lcddefault
Xft.rgba: rgb
export INFINALITY_FT_AUTOFIT_FORCE_SLIGHT_HINTING=true
export INFINALITY_FT_FILTER_PARAMS="06 25 44 25 06"
export INFINALITY_FT_GRAYSCALE_FILTER_STRENGTH=0
export INFINALITY_FT_GAMMA_CORRECTION="0 100"
export INFINALITY_FT_BRIGHTNESS="0"
export INFINALITY_FT_CONTRAST="0"
export INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_INCREASE_GLYPH_HEIGHTS=false
export INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_HORIZONTAL_STEM_DARKEN_STRENGTH=0

export INFINALITY_FT_AUTOHINT_SNAP_STEM_HEIGHT=0

export INFINALITY_FT_GLOBAL_EMBOLDEN_Y_VALUE=0
export INFINALITY_FT_BOLD_EMBOLDEN_X_VALUE=0
export INFINALITY_FT_BOLD_EMBOLDEN_Y_VALUE=0
Now logout/login.
Starting from there, you can further tweak infinality
Ah, openoffice also looks good out of the box, no need to install extra '*uglyfix*' packages
...and chromium still sucks like nothing happened.
-EDIT-
Remember to not change the hintstyle, leave it to hintfull.

Photos oddly colored in iDVD

I asked this question in the Final Cut Express forum but received no answers, so I'll try here. I have iDVD 7. I made a video in Final Cut Express, exported it as a QuickTime movie, and dropped it into iDVD, which automatically created several screens to deal with all my scene (chapter) markers.
I created a custom Theme by dropping digital photos into the backgrounds of the Scene Selection pages. The photos looked fine in both Photoshop and iDVD. These same photos were also used in parts of the video.
But when the video was burned to a DVD, many of these photos on the scene selection screens now look oddly colored, the colors overly saturated and exaggerated, for example some of the people look badly sunburned.
The odd thing is, as I said these same photos are also in the video, and they look fine there; it's only on the menu screens created by iDVD that the colors look odd.
It seems to me that iDVD is processing the colors of these photos differently than Final Cut Express does. Is there some way I should be preparing these still pictures before I drop them into iDVD, so that the colors will stay normal?
Tom

Bengt, I have three TVs available to test my DVDs. Only on the smallest and cheapest do the photos look acceptable, and only barely. On the other two TVs, and especially the largest and most expensive one, they look overheated and oversaturated,quite unnatural.
I would agree with you Shippey that it is a monitor calibration issue, but I have two large monitors connected to my Mac, each with different calibration profiles, and the photos look fine on either one of them. They also look fine in the video. Only on the iDVD scene-selection pages do they look odd.
So, here is what I'm trying right now: I went back into iDVD and replaced all the pictures with ones that have been partly desaturated in Photoshop. I went into Photoshop's Hue/Saturation control and pulled down the saturation until some of the color was removed from each picture. Then I put those pictures back into the scene-selection screens of iDVD, and I'm presently burning a fresh DVD (actually a disk image, to start with). I won't know the results for a few hours yet, because I'm using the Professional encoding setting and it takes a long time for iDVD to process that way. I'll report back the results after I burn a new DVD later today and try it out on the TVs.
At least I have learned from you that iDVD is not supposed to require any special kind of Photoshop file, or some "broadcast safe colors" version of a file or something. It is supposed to do it correctly just as I did it--straight out of Photoshop. Why it doesn't do that is still the question.

Some text is rendering in a strange font in firefox on my Mac.

On some website, there is text that is rendering in an fancy type font, almost like handwritten font. I have no idea why it is happening. I will attach a screenshot of an example of my homepage where this is occurring in just one place I have found.

Why after effects renders me with bad audio?

I rendered almost six times and the result of these renders is that audio takes me wrong, when I play it in Windows media audio don´t reproduce, and I reproduced a file alternative to this and reproduced it excellent, the worst is that when I play in VLC or Media Player the audio is ok, that's not the main problem, because for me it would reproduce any of the programs that it works, but I need to make this video with less size or weight and when I make this process finally the audio it´s completely damaged. This has never happened before. Please help me.

I'm not quite sure what you're saying. Are you saying that when you render from After Effects the audio sounds bad but the audio file that was in your composition doesn't sound that bad when you play it in other applications?
You aren't telling us what your original audio file is like or what your render settings are in After Effects, so we do not have a lot of information that we might need.
Is the sound okay when you do a RAM preview in AE?
What is the file format of the audio file?
What settings are you using to render out of AE?
If your original audio is an MP3 file, try transcoding it to a WAV and using that in AE. Then render an uncompressed file out of AE and use the Adobe Media Encoder to do your final delivery file. That's the proper workflow anyway. AE should not be used to make your final compressed version.
