Require a decent method of font consolidation for 10.6.8?

Good Morning,
I'm looking for an effective method of font consolidation for Mac OS X 10.6.8 - I currently have upward of 2,000 fonts on my workstation, out of these fonts I'm sure a considerable number have been duplicated by accident.
What I require is an effective method of consolidating all these fonts on my machine (similar to the way iTunes consolidates it's files), as far as I'm aware I have a two options.
The first is find a utility that will do this for me, preferrably a program that will also identify if I have duplicate fonts on my system. - The other option I have is manually searching for the fonts, determining if there are any duplicates, and relocating the font files to a central directory, such as "Volume\Library\Fonts"; however given the number of files I am dealing with this is less preferrable.
I do have root access enabled on this system if that is required.
Does anyone know of any available software for font management of OS X?
Thanks for your time.

My SmartDisk VST still works with Snow Leopard, model number FDUSB-M. It's still available from Internet stores.
However, support for HFS+ with Mountain Lion is problematic.
Additionally: the VST only required software to work with OS9. It works natively with SL. With Lion and Mountain Lion it sees previously formatted floppies, but only allows formatting with FAT and ExFat. And, in my experience, it only works reliably with previoulsy formatted FAT 32 floppies.

  • Consolidation for SAP BPC

    HI Gurus,
    I have gone through the documentation provided by SAP  for  SAP BPC Admin document
    which  just talks about the various business rules available for consolidation.
    Can someone o explain in brief the sequence  steps that one needs to follow for consolidation? (e.g. First develop the dimensions - account, entity, etc., then application - finance, rate, ownership, then set up the consolidation rules, then methods, then automatic adjustment detail etc.)
    Also it will be helpful if someone can actually describe the required properties in each dimension to perform consolidation?
    (e.g. Account needs to have ElimAcc for Eliminations etc.)
    Regards
    kishan

    Hi  Kishan,
                     For consolidation if your working in BPCNW version,here are the requirements.
                      In general you have 3 applications...
                          1.Consolidation-For doing all the consolidation part
                          2.Rate----
    For doing all the currency conversions and Elimainations
                          3.Ownership
                    Here are the  required dimensions dimensions....
                      C_Acct (A)
                      C_Category (C)

    these are the basic requirements for legal Consolidation.
    The sequance of steps are 1.Load the master data(Dimensions)
                                           2.create the Applications.
                                           3.Load the Appset and Application Parameters.
                                           4.Customizing the Logic(We have the existing logic in BPC-BI use that  Logic).
                                           5.Reports are based on your need.
    If your an Finance background you should have known the steps to process the logic i.e sequence of steps.....if not reply me i will let you know..
    Hope these helps you...

  • Font Licenses for DPS App folios

    I'm trying to get my head around font licenses for DPS apps. When publishing folios in PDF format isn't everything converted to images on export? I've found font licenses that have an app embed option but say that anything part of an "image" does not require an app embed license but rather just the regular user license. I understand that different foundries will have different licenses and agreements but any insight into general font use with DPS would be much appreciated. Currently my apps are iOS only but we may explore Android in the future.

    Bob, I appreciate your quick reply and expanding on the Typekit licensing, which very clearly specifies where DPS is covered. Though, I was hoping for a little more effort in response, or inquiry as to how you can better address the question. I tried calling Adobe to see if I could get some quick answers, but I did not receive support and was redirected to use the forum.
    I want to better understand the technical aspects of the DPS product so I can lean it against each foundries terms. Because the additional licenses are very expensive, literally thousands of dollars for myself and colleagues in some cases if we need something more than a desktop license. Neil answered it some above, but I need a little more clarity...
    I have researched and contacted a few different foundries and none of them have been able to give me a sense of confidence that they really understand what is being done with DPS and I could only articulate it in part. One foundry said I need an unlimited ebook license. Another said I need to buy a new ebook license for each digital magazine issue and also possibly an app license as well.
    A specific case is with FontSpring.com. They said I need an unlimited ebook license, but their terms say a desktop license includes embedding the font in a PDF and then selling that PDF. But when I asked about it a little further, they interpreted DPS published magazines in PDF format as needing an ebook license as well because of how it is produced and delivered to mobile devices, with the addition of slideshows, etc..
    Please help me understand and I'd like your opinion: When I create digital folios with DPS and the article format is PDF, should the product just be considered another method of delivering PDF content (even though it's going through an app and delivered to mobile devices)? Or is it something more? As Neil said, the fonts aren't evenly fully embedded, but rather a subset. Most places are trying to tie it into ebook licensing because it seems like more than a PDF that is sold, and it jumps pricing way up. Is it really more than a PDF and more like an ebook?
    Thank you.

  • How to configure the runtime and consolidation for a track in CMS.

    How to configure the runtime and consolidation for a track in CMS.
    I can see the track exists in CMS but the same doesnt pull up in the NWDS in the development configuration perspective.
    I compared the given track with the one which gets pulled up in NWDS. Theres something called runtime system and consolidation which isnt defined for the track which is invisible.
    Please advise , what are these required for. And how can we configure the same.

    The runtime systems are defined for a track to setup the Transport path for any code changes....the Consolidation system is usually defined as a Virtual system for the track and used for comparison and fixing any broken or Dirty DC's ....that means it's not used as a Runtime System for Deployment as compared to DEV,QAT and PROD used for Deployment...
    Hope it helps..

  • Font substitution for Times New Roman? Why is Adobe doing this?

    I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 9.2 to read pdfs created by a number of different authors. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit OS. These are NOT pdfs I have created. Some of these pdfs display an incorrect font substitution for Times New Roman and I can't figure out why. In the File/Properties dialog the font property comes up as Times New Roman, True Type, ANSI encoding (Times New Roman has spaces between the words). This font is not embedded. Adobe Sans MM is the font that my Adobe 9.2 substitutes for it, even though I have a true type Times New Roman already installed in Windows.I have installed all updates for both Acrobat and for Windows. If I select the text touch up tool to look at the text, a box comes up saying that the original font is not available and a substitute font will be used. When I look at the drop down box for fonts in Adobe, I see among all of the various fonts available, TimesNewRoman without spaces, but no Times New Roman with spaces. Does this matter?
    When I go to my Windows Control Panel Fonts screen, I see a Times New Roman truetype font available (with spaces, the same as the font the document is requesting). It says OpenType Layout, Digitally Signed, TrueTyepe Outliers. I use it all the time.
    What is required to get Adobe 9 to display this font? It looks like the document is asking for the font I have available on the system and Adobe 9 Pro just isn't identifying it. These same pdfs display just fine on Adobe Acrobat Standard 7.0 on another Windows 7 64 bit OS machine. Is there a separate font library that Adobe has independent of the Windows font library and I simply don't have a complete set of fonts for my version? I don't have the option to have the authors recreate their documents. And they display just fine on an older version of Adobe on a different machine.
    UPDATE: Adobe 9 required more than one update. I did the 300 mb update and the problem described above was still there. I checked again just now for updates, and there was another one. This one, whatever it was, fixed the font substitution problem. So the moral of the story is... update, then update again, and keep doing it until there are no more. Adobe doesn't say "there are xx updates available." You just have to keep on asking for them until it says 'no'.

    The font Radioactive is the problem. It has an incorrect internal name that conflicts with Times New Roman. Delete Radioactive and ban it from any Mac you use.

  • Set font size for ChoiceGroup

    Hi,
    Is there any way to set font size of the String elements of ChoiceGroup

    Hi,
    Yes, there is, but only if you're using MIDP2.0.
    Check the API documentation of ChoiceGroup and see that there's a setFont(.., ..) method. The given index (int value) identifies the index of the element in the list for which the font will be set. This means that different elements in one choicegroup can have different fonts.
    Test it carefully, I've noticed that not all devices show correct behaviour on this. Also note that certain devices ignore certain font settings (for example italics, because a lot of native implementations won't have a font in italics).
    Good luck!

  • Custom iterator problem - The method createChildIterator() is undefined for

    Hi there, this is my first post here, still quite new to Java. I'm having trouble with a custom iterator when trying to test it with JUnit. The reason to write a custom iterator is this: I want to get the object in the array, then for each item I want to get it's child items with a new iterator call.
    It's quite complicated because naturally I'm trying to hide the implementation from the "user". The iterator holds a list of classes called StandardSortElement. Each of these classes holds a class called AvailableResouce
    which in turn holds an AbstractResource, and it's AbstractResource that I want the iterator to return. My JUnit testing shows that this part works correctly.
    For the child items, they are also held inside the StandardSortElement as an array list. Here is the error I get
    "The method createChildIterator() is undefined for the type Iterator<AbstractResource>"
    First here is an interface for the custom iterator:
    public interface SortIteratorInterface extends Iterator<AbstractResource>{
         public abstract Iterator<BookingInterface> createChildIterator();
    }Here is the iterator class:
    public class StandardSortIterator implements SortIteratorInterface {
         ArrayList<StandardSortElement> items;
         Integer position = 0;
         * a constructor that passes in a sorted list of StandardSortElement
         public StandardSortIterator(ArrayList<StandardSortElement> items) {
              this.items = items;
         * Return bookings associated with the currently iterated StandardSortElement
         public Iterator<BookingInterface> createChildIterator() {
              return items.get(position).createBookingIterator();
         * Determine if there is another item in the list
         public boolean hasNext() {
              if (position >= items.size()) {
                   return false;
              } else {
                   return true;
         * Return the next resource in the list. We have a list of StandardSortElement but
         * we want to return the resource within.
         public AbstractResource next() {
              StandardSortElement ssa = items.get(position);                                             // Get a handle on the StandardSortElement     
              AbstractResource ar = ssa.getResource();                                                  // Now get the resource that's packaged up inside
              position++;                                                                                          // Increment the position
              return ar;                                                                                          // return the resource
         * Do not implement - mandatory interface implementation but not required here.
         public void remove() {
              // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    }This is the code taken from the JUnit test class
         * This iterator also has an interal child iterator. Check this works as expected
         @Test
         public void testChildIterator() {
              Iterator<AbstractResource> iterator = new StandardSortIterator(items);
              Integer i = 0;
              while (iterator.hasNext()) {
                   AbstractResource abstractResource = (AbstractResource)iterator.next();
                    if (i.equals(0)) {
                         // The first element should contain children - check it works
                         Iterator<BookingInterface> childIterator = iterator.createChildIterator(); // ERROR OCCURS HERE
                   i++;               
              assertTrue(i.equals(items.size()));
         /************************************************************************************/Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!
    Paul

    Your unit test is coded against the Iterator interface, not your SortIteratorInterface, which is where the createChildIterator method is defined. You need to use a reference to a SortIteratorInterface, not an Iterator. Incidentally, when defining an interface, it's unnecessary to declare the methods as public and abstract. They're implicitly that anyway

  • Is there any BAPI or FM or Method to create Version for Initiative

    My requirement is :
    when status of decision point for initiative is set to final i.e 003 then version for initiative should get generated. I am serching for BAPI or FM or Method which could generate Version for initiative .

    Hello Naren,
    You can use function module '/RPM/INIS_VERS_CREATE' to create versions for initiatives.
    Alternatively, you can also use the 'class->method'... 'cl_inm_initiative_o_api=>create_initiatives_version'

  • Font Setting for PDF

    Hi Experts,
    I am downloading the PDF format of the smartform through cprojects. In the smartform I have used my own Z style which uses ARIAL as the font. But when I view the PDF format of the smartform, the font is taken as ‘Courier’.  The Document property of ADOBE READER shows ‘Courier’ as the font rather than ‘Arial’. Please provide any settings for PDF/smartform if required to get the necessary font.
    Helpful answers will be rewarded points.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Good Font manager for Windows 7/8

    Hello,
    Like the topic says, I'm looking for a good font manager for my Windows machine. I saw NexusFont at xiles.net, and wanted to see if anyone had experience with that or any other programs. Maybe something Adobe has that I overlooked. Obviously, I'm new to the font management game.
    Thanks!

    I downloaded the trial of this (Extensis Suitcase Fusion), installed it, and Photoshop came grinding to a halt. I had to uninstall. Any ideas why? I'm running Windows 7, CC 2014. Still looking for a decent font manager on Windows.

  • Changing the font color for the complete row based on the Keyfigure Values

    Hi Experts,
    Can any one help me to find a solution for this?.
    I have a requirement, in which the Font color for the complete Row needs to be set to RED in Bex Report, when the corresponding Row Keyfigure is more than a particular value.
    Ex: Notification-Material-Customer-Def Qty-delivered Qty
          1000000 - XXXXX- AAAAAA-10-1000
    in the above example, when the Defect qty increses more than 10, then the complete Row Including the characterstics, Notification, Material, and customer Should be Highlighted in Red. This has to happen automatically once the Query is refreshed.
    Please let me know if you have any suggestion here?.

    Hi,
    Step 1: Click the Format Menu in Excel(BEX Analyzer)
    Step 2: Click the Style submenu
    Step 3: there will be number of SAPBEX formats available. Each of these relates to another cell of BEx (Header, Cell Data,
                Result  Row, Hierarchies, etc.). Also, they depend on data types.
    Step 4: Select SAPBEXchatext
    Step 5: Click Modify. This displays all the standard formatting option as shown below.
    Step 6: Select Font, Color (Background/ Font).
    Step 7: Click OK on both the screens. The entire BEx output result row Font and color is modified.

    What am I doing wrong? I should add that the queue and the

    I have found out that the error message comes from the class
    jrun.jms.wrapper.enterprise.JRunConnectionFactoryWrapper, method
    createQueueConnection, when instance variable m_useContainerAuth is
    false.

    I dont think you should it on server-side - you can do it in client side logic. Start playing live stream - if no data is coming - i think you can use ns.time for checking this - then switch to recorded file play.

  • How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?

    How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
    Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
    As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
    With regard to font size,
    1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
    2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
    3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
    4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
    5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
    Can any of you Help?!?

    Maybe this extension helps:
