Performance and Disabling Fonts

I have read that disabling fonts will help performance. I have disabled fonts that I will never use (I didn't disable any system fonts). Does this help only in startup or does it help when running apps or both or other???
Thanks!!!

How many fonts are we talking about? if it is the normal OS X installation plus a few it is not worth considering. If it is too many of them (hundreds or even thousands) then yes by disabling those you do not use will help your system breath. Please read Kurt Lang's excellent tip regarding Font Management in Tiger and Panther.

Temporary disable Font auto-activation(UTC)

Is there a way via javascript to temporarily disable and then reenable the Extensis UTC Font auto-activation for Indesign files?
I have a script that loops through and opens a file, edits it, exports it and then reverts and does it again for x number of pages. The script used to work fine when manually enabling and disabling fonts but not we have had a few font issues in the PDFs and we're thinking it has to to with the auto-activation interrupting the script or something like that.
Since the file is opened manually the first time that would allow the auto activation to occur once. The script would then run and disable it, do all the edits. exports. and reverts and then when its done enable auto-activation again.
Let me know if you have any ideas or if you happen to already know the about the issue.
Thank you

Hi,
Everything is normal, it's the result of the command
To disable auto activating font
autoactivation -d
Result --> auto activation globally changed to AutoActivationDisabled
To enable auto activating font
atsutil autoactivation -e
Result --> auto activation globally changed to AutoActivationEnabled

How should I organize and disable non-english fonts.

I'm a graphic designer and I'm having trouble organizing all of these random hebrew/japanese/chinese fonts that I never use.
I don't want to screw up my system, but I also don't want to scroll through 200 fonts every time I want to find one.
Is there an easy way I can find all of the non-english fonts and disable them?
Fontbook freezes and crashes all the time for me, so I've been using Suitcase Fusion free trial for a few days and disabled a bunch of fonts through it. Though, it prevents me from disabling anything considered a "System Font" which is fine, only having the necesccary non-english fonts is okay, I just don't want 75% of my font list in my adobe applications to be un-usable fonts.
I guess my problem is that by default, some fonts are pre-disabled on OS X, and should I run into problems, I want a way to easily re-enable these fonts if I need to. Also, since I've disabled so many fonts, I dont' know what ones are enabled by default. How would I go about restoring all of my fonts?
I think it'd be nice to be able to sort all of the fonts by what language they're in. But I don't know what language the font is because I don't speak those languages. Another problem is that you can't organize local fonts in Suitcase. I think using fontbook would be my best option for this, before switching back to Suitcase for regular use, but I still have the problem of restoring my already disabled fonts correctly, and figuring out which fonts are in what language. Could anyone help me out with this?

PS Here is a rough list of fonts provided with OS X intended for use only with particular non-Latin scripts:
Arabic : al bayan, baghdad, damascus, decotype naskh, geeza pro, nadeem
Hebrew: arial hebrew, corsiva hebrew, new peninim, raanana
Thai: ayuthaya, krungthep, sathu, silom, thonburi
Lao : lao
Tibetan: kailasa, kokonor
Korean: gungseo, headline, nanum, pcmyungjo, pilgi, applegothic, applemyungjo
Chinese: biaukai, gb18030, hei, heiti, kai, lihei, lisong, stfangsong, stheiti, stkaiti, stsong, apple ligothic, baoli, kaiti, lantinghei, libian, songti, wawati, weibei, xingkai, yuanti, yuppi
Japanese: hiragino
Armenian: mshtakan
Ethiopic: kefa
Indic: devanagari, bangla, gurmukhi, gujarati, oriya, tamil, telugu, kannada, malayalam, sinhala,
Myanmar : myanmar
Cherokee : plantagenet cherokee
UCAS : euphemia
Khmer : khmer

Disabled font and background color

I am trying to change the font and background color of a disabled h:inputtext tag. Currently, if I set disabled=true on an h:inputtext tag, the background in gray and the font is white. I would like to somehow customize that to be background gray and font color black. Any ideas?

I realize this post is from a few days ago, but if you're still looking for help:
This is my first thought on how to do this. Unfortunately, it's a bit messy. JMenuItems can be enabled and disabled but JMenus don't have this option...

I have iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

Hi, I have the iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

Hello Glittergirl68,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the function to reseize the Font in an iBook is not functioning properly.
I recommend a few things here. First close all the apps that are running in the background:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
From: iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
When you have done that, restart the phone, and try again.
If the issue persists, I would follow these steps from the article:
iOS: Troubleshooting apps purchased from the App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
2. Check for app updates
You can setup apps to update automatically in Settings > iTunes & App Store, but make sure that your apps are up to date:
Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
If prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the app updates.
Note: Some apps may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You can also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.
4. Restart the app
If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app.
5. Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.
6. Reinstall the affected app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it:
Tap and hold any app icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle and show a small "x" in the top-right corner of the app.
Tap the "x" in the corner of the app you want to delete.
Tap Delete to remove the app and all of its data from your device.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store.
Search for the app and then download it again.
All the very best,
Sterling

How to distinguish between enabled and disabled tasks in SSDT-BI 2012

Hi,
I've got SSDT-BI 2012 together with VS2012 installed. Simple questions: What is the difference between enabled and disabled tasks in control flow from the design/color point of view? I do see that the disabled tasks changes to grey (omg are you really kidding
me????) from black. This could be a bad joke or dream however is not.
So I'm kindly asking you to help me solve this problem. How can I change the color difference between these two options (enabled task vs disabled task)? I do not care whether the one will be yellow or pink, simply just need to be recognizable at first
look and not under long and painful examination.
Thanks for your reply. Hopefully it will be useful.
Karol.

Hi Karol,
It’s true that it only changes the font color of the task name text to grey after disabling a task in SSDT 2012. In SSDT 2010, the whole task control including icon will turn grey after it is disabled; in BIDS, the background color of the task control will
turn grey after it is disabled. These behaviors are by design. Personally, I agree with you that this behavior in SSDT 2012 is not very readable.
If you have concerns, I would suggest you submitting a wish at

Photoshop performance and redraw problems

Hello,
I'm running Photoshop CS5.1 x64 12.1 on a Windows 7 SP1 machine with all updates installed and the latest AMD 13.9 drivers for my HD6850 card. The PC has 8GB RAM.
Whenever I zoom in, there is an annoying redraw effect whereby the image "tears" as it's redrawn in "squares". This is not the usual vsyncless tear because if i simply scroll the image left and right it does not happen. To fix this, I can enable OpenGL and the tearing will be gone. However, when OpenGL is enabled the brushes lag quite badly. Sometimes it takes a full second from the moment I start a stroke to the moment it appears on screen. I've set OpenGL to basic and disabled all other options such as vsync and anti-aliasing. I've tried setting the cache levels to 8 and all cache tile sizes, restarting PS after each setting change. I've found it impossible to eliminate PS's non-OpenGL zoom tearing and brush lag when OpenGL is enabled, so I'm forced to fix one and live with the other.
I'd appreciate any advice, thank you.

I guess you'll have worked through the steps in this link?
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/optimize-performance-photoshop-cs4-cs5.html
It sounds like you are seeing the tiles that Photoshop splits the screen into. You really need Chris Cox to give you the best settings and other advice, but this might be one of those times when the 'Tall and thin/Default/Big and fat' options make a difference. I'm going to hazard a guess that setting a smaller tile size would be best. Short of a system upgrade that is.

Disabling font tab in InDesign CS5 Control panel

Hi,
Is there any option to disable the Font change option in the InDesign CS5 Control panel. That is the user should not change the font using Control panel.
Thanks,
Gopal

What I need here is, whenever the user change the font using Control panel, an alert should be made to the user and the font should not be changed.
I am confused why the method the user chooses matters.
Why is it a problem if they use the Control panel but not the Character panel?
I don't think you can achieve this with scripting.
With substantial effort, you maybe able to detect when they change a font and pop up an alert, but it is pretty difficult.
It would be more doable but still hard in the C++ SDK.

Font book disabling fonts

I'm running Mavericks 10.9.2 and my Font Book application seems to randomly disable fonts. When I open the application to enable certain fonts, it disables them again anywhere from 5 minutes to a week later.
There is no preference to keep all fonts enabled. Any suggestions? As a graphic designer, this is incredibly frustrating beacuse I need access to my font collection every single day!

I have the same problem, Arial font is the one that affects me the most because it's used by a lot of websites. when arial is disabled in font book those websites look weird using other fonts.
I'm also a graphic designer and I use Suitcase for my font management, I don't know if they might have compatibility issues thats causing the problem.
Have you solved this?

Difference between 'Always Refresh' and 'Disable Cache Hits'

We are using clustered application servers with its own cache. We are not doing any cache synchronization. So, for selective objects we should ensure that cache is not returning stale objects.
I see two options in MWB for refreshing and disabling the cache. Can somebody explain the difference between these two and recommend what I should do to address my problem.
Thanks in advance.

These are similar and often used together settings:
'Disable Cache Hits'
Is used by TopLink when a ReadObjectQuery is executed with only the PK fields. By default TopLink will short-circuit going to the database and try to find the object in the cache first. This includes 1:1 mapping queries. Turning this on will cause TopLink to go to the database instead of the cache in these cases.
'Always Refresh'
Is used to tell TopLink how to handle the results returned from a query against the database. By default TopLink will trust the cached version of any instances already cached. When this is enabled, or the refreshIdentityMapResult is turned on for a specific query the results of the query are used to refresh the values of the cached version.
The trick with always-refresh is that it does not force all queries to go to the database. It simply forces all returned rows to refresh cached instances.
These are often selected by customers who never want to trust a cached instance. They are typically used together to get that effect. This configuration will get minimal performance gain from the cache but still require the cache for object-identity (avoid duplicate instances).
Be careful though because these will have the effect for EVERY query and mapping traversal. I typically prefer to manually turn this on for my specific queries where I need to get the latest version from the database versus turning it on for all queries.
On the query the methods you will be interested in are:
query.refreshIdentityMapResult()
This will force the query to the database and have the results refresh the cached instance if it already exists.
One setting that is of definite interest is
descriptor.onlyRefreshIfNewerVersion();
This must be used in conjunction with the above query refresh and optimistic locking but it will avoid additional unecessary steps if the row has not changed since the cached version was read.

Delegation to allow HelpDesk users to Enable and Disable accounts

We currently have a HelpDeskAdmins group that these users are allowed to perform certain functions within Active Directory. I need to add the ability to Enable and Disable user accounts.
I have been looking through the Delegation of Control settings but do not know which ones to add to enable this...
Has anyone setup accounts to perform this before?

You need to create a delegation for the attribute userAccountControl. So run the delegation wizard as usual, but select "Create a custom task to delegate", then pick up "User objects", then "Property-specific" and select the
"Read and Write userAccountInformation".
So, you can do it directly on the attribute, or you can do it using the property set User-Account-Restrictions (this last one actually give you a little bit more permission, see
here).

How to unmute and disable rotation lock the ipad 2 at the same time?

I can't seem to unmute without enabling the rotation lock, and vice versa. I want to unmute and disable the rotation lock. Resetting the settings doesn't work. It's really fustrating. Help?

The side switch is the key. Depending on your settings, it may affect the mute or it may affect the rotation lock. Whichever function it supports, the other function is performed by a "soft switch." This support article from Apple provides detail.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
In case you're wondering, here is the history. Originally, the mechanical switch affected only the rotation lock and the mute was a software switch elsewhere. In IOS-3, it was changed to be the mute switch and the rotation lock became a software switch. This was done to ensure consistency among IOS devices. Unfortunately, a large quantity of users complained loudly, alleging that they turned the rotation lock on and off several times every hour and the convenience of the mechanical switch is essential. In IOS-4, Apple bowed to the whiners and made the switch function selectable and now we're stuck with a mess.
