SharePoint set font

Hello all,
I have a problem with the fonts in my SharePoint. I use Segoe UI light as font in my SharePoint Site. I think it's the default. This font looks different in different browsers. We use mainly
the IE 8 in our company and it looks terrible there. We normally would use the font family Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif for web.
Is there a chance to make this font looks better in IE8? How can I use the font family Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif? I tried to create a new spfont file but I am not sure how
to use arial there. Normally you link to the fonts but I want to use the client’s font. If I delete or leave empty attributes like eotsrc, woffsrc,... . My newly created font file doesn't appear in the dope down list. This means that
the file is incorrect.
I am thankful for any information on how the fonts are rendered in SharePoint and on how to customize them.     
Sylwia

HI Sylwia,
Have you tried the following article steps to create a custom spfont file?

    hi,
    i have created a report using Crystal Report 9 with font Draft 10CPI using Printer EPSON FX-2175 on Windows XP with SP2.  after then when i call this report from my .NET Application (developed on VS 2005). the report is not showing as well printing with the already set Font (Draft 10CPI) Kindly do needful for the same.

    Is the font Draft 10CPI a printer font?  If it is, you are running across a limitation of .NET not Crystal Reports.  .NET only supports True type and Open type fonts.  Microsoft has a KB about it, but I cannot find it right now.

  • [Solved] css setting font family, ff3 vs ie7

    In my css, I've set 'font-family: sans;' in body { }, and in ff3 on my Arch laptop, it displays correctlly. In ie7 on my wifes vista laptop, it still reverts back to w/e serif font it uses if it can't find one set by the web page. I have no idea why this is happening, and I can't seem to fix it. Can anyone give me a hand?

    Agh, well, I looked at thayer's blog to see if that worked in both browsers and it did, so I checked to see how he had his fonts set up.
    font-family: Arial, DejaVu Sans, sans-serif;
    The closest I got to that was 'font-family: Arial, DejaVu, sans;'

    The font needs to be the postscript name, this will give you a list of them.
    var Dlog =
    "dialog{text:'Script Interface',bounds:[100,100,500,270],"+
    "FontName:DropDownList{bounds:[30,40,370,60]},"+
    "PostScriptName:DropDownList{bounds:[30,100,370,120]},"+
    "statictext0:StaticText{bounds:[40,10,200,30] , text:'Font Name'},"+
    "statictext1:StaticText{bounds:[40,70,141,87] , text:'Postscript Name'},"+
    "button0:Button{bounds:[140,130,240,150] , text:'Ok' }}";
    win = new Window(Dlog,"Use the Postscript Name in your script.");
    var item;
    var item2;
    for (var i=0,len=app.fonts.length;i<len;i++) {
      item = win.FontName.add ('item', "" + app.fonts[i].name);
      item2 = win.PostScriptName.add ('item', "" + app.fonts[i].postScriptName);   
    win.FontName.selection = win.FontName.items[0] ;
    win.PostScriptName.selection = win.PostScriptName.items[0] ;
    win.FontName.onChange = function() {
    win.PostScriptName.selection = win.PostScriptName.items[parseInt(this.selection)] ;
    $.writeln(win.PostScriptName.items[parseInt(this.selection)]);
    win.PostScriptName.onChange = function() {
    win.FontName.selection = win.FontName.items[parseInt(this.selection)] ;
    win.center();
    win.show();
    Here is your code with colour addded...
         var originalUnit = preferences.rulerUnits
          preferences.rulerUnits = Units.INCHES
          var FillColor = new SolidColor;
        FillColor.rgb.hexValue = 'ff0000';
         var docRef = app.documents.add( 11, 17, 300, "Test", NewDocumentMode.CMYK)
        MyLayer = docRef.artLayers.add()

  • How do I set font default in aperture?

    how do I set font default in aperture?

    how do I set font default in aperture?
    Do you want to change the size of the fonts or the shape for the fonts in the user interface or in the products (books, webpages)?
    Aperture does not allow to change the fonts used in the graphical user interface, neither the size nor the shape. To change the fonts for the products (books, etc.), pick a theme with the fonts you like.

  • 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!

  • Set font on a text

    Hi!
    I've got some problem with setting font on a text, this is my coed:
    var ar_delaney_e:Font = new ar_delaney();
    textcount=1;
    //Setting a variable to     ar_delaney_e
    this["font_"+String(textcount)] = "ar_delaney_e";
    //Create a textFormat
    var textFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
    //Setting font textformat fon to ar_delaney_e??
    textFormat.font = this["font_"+String(textcount)];
    //Set textformat to my text
    myText.defaultTextFormat = textFormat;
    Fon is embedded hav also tried textFormat.font = this["font_"+String(textcount)].fontName; instead of textFormat.font = this["font_"+String(textcount)]; but no one of this will work, how can you fix this?

    On stage I got a button with instance name add_text_btn, and a mc called "knapp_bild". So when pressing add_text_btn the function func_add_text_btn creates a movie clip with a text in it and also variables for size, color and font for the text. the two variables size and color works fine.
    add_text_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, func_add_text_btn);
    function func_add_text_btn(event:MouseEvent):void{
    textcount++;
    var MovieClip:MovieClip = new MovieClip();
    MovieClip.x = 80;
    MovieClip.y = 60;
    MovieClip.alpha = 1;
    MovieClip.name="mc_text"+String(textcount);
    //Variables for font, size and color
    this["size_"+String(textcount)] = 40;
    this["color_"+String(textcount)] = "0x00CC00";
    this["font_"+String(textcount)] = "ar_delaney_e";
    textFormat.font = this["font_"+String(textcount)].fontName;
    textFormat.size = this["size_"+String(textcount)];
    textFormat.color = this["color_"+String(textcount)];
    var textField:TextField = new TextField()
    textField.defaultTextFormat = textFormat;
    textField.autoSize="left";
    textField.text = 'Text '+String(textcount);
    textField.name = "text"+String(textcount);  // give them names
    textField.background=false;
    textField.embedFonts=true;
    var mc_name=String("mc_text"+String(textcount));
    knapp_bild.addChild(MovieClip);
    MovieClip.addChild(textField);
    textField.mouseEnabled=false;
    MovieClip.width=textField.width;
    Later on in the program this["font_"+String(textcount)] will change but it dosen't work in the func_add_text_btn function now so let's just try to fix that first. Hope you can see something that mabe won't work and just ask if you got any qusetion. Thanks for your help!

    Add a stylesheet with the rule
    .root { -fx-font: 13 "Comic Sans MS"; }
    or whatever font size and family you want.
    You can also use an inline style on the root node, e.g.,

  • Ftp root and sharepoints setting bringing users right into home dir.

    Hello, I pretty much understand the setup of ftp, but shouldn't the "ftp root and sharepoint" setting bring authenticated users into the ftp root first as the "/" directory? Then they should be able to access users since I have it shared and get into their directory if they need. But in my setup it brings them into their home directory first making it look just like the "home folders and sharepoints" setup. Any ideas?

    This came up and bit me today, too.
    If I set "Authenticated Users See:" to "Home Directory Only", it works as advertised and ftp users are dropped into their home directories.
    If I set "Authenticated Users See:" to "FTP Root and Share Points", login invariably fails with the message "530 User username: can't change directory to /Users/username."

  • How to set font for  JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() ?

    Hi,
    I want to set font for JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(). I have tried with following but it did not worked.
    javax.swing.UIManager.put("JOptionPane.font", "Verdana"); Do any one have idea how to do this. Your suggestion would be helpfull to me.
    Thank you.

    Then you'll have to loop over the components in the JOptionPane and setFont for each JButton. My SwingUtils class (search the net using Darryl SwingUtils, I can't give you a link as it's blocked from my office) can make this easier.
    Sample code:import darrylbu.util.SwingUtils;
    import java.awt.Font;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import javax.swing.plaf.FontUIResource;
    public class OptionPaneFonts {
       public static void main(String[] args) {
          UIManager.put("OptionPane.messageFont", new FontUIResource(new Font(
                  "Verdana", Font.BOLD, 32)));
          SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
             @Override
             public void run() {
                new OptionPaneFonts().makeUI();
       public void makeUI() {
          JOptionPane pane = new JOptionPane("So it's a date?",
                  JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE,
                  JOptionPane.YES_NO_CANCEL_OPTION,
                  UIManager.getIcon("OptionPane.questionIcon"),
                  new String[]{"Okey-dokey", "Not on your life!",
                     "Let me think about it"
                  }, null);
          for (JButton button : SwingUtils.getDescendantsOfType(JButton.class, pane)) {
             button.setFont(new Font("Tahoma", Font.ITALIC, 18));
          JDialog dialog = new JDialog((JWindow) null);
          dialog.setModal(true);

  • How do I re-set Font Book to factory settings?

    Hi everybody, hopefully you can help me...
    Just received my Refurbished iMac 21.5-Inch 2,7GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5. Have loaded all my software, no problem. However, I stupidly and what on earth possessed me to do it I'll never know...dragged 11,000 fonts from an external back-up disk directly into font book late last night. It was verifying all the fonts and flagged up any potential corrupt fonts, I now don't seem to be able to even open Font book without it trying to locate all 11,000 fonts. Is there a way of deleting all of these fonts and doing it properly or re-setting Font book to it's original state. I can't access the preferences on startup as Font Book seems to want to find all the fonts first and i just get a whirly wheel in the bottom right hand corner...I've also tried to locate the fonts in 'library' etc but  they don't seem to be there which makes me wonder of Font Book is stuck in some kind of limbo...this is a monumental FAIL on my part I have to say.
    Any Ideas???
    Many Thanks
    Dave

    User fonts, those not require by the OS, are in two locations;
    Mac HD/Library/Fonts
    ~/Library/Fonts
    I would see if the 11M+ fonts are in ~/Library/Fonts first. If so drag them to the Trash and restart.
