Some Language fonts no longer display correctly

I have a few language fonts, specifically Russian and Church Slavonic, which I have been using for years without any problem. They still partially display correctly, but there are some characters which display a different character now. For instance, in the Church Slavonic font, there are many characters with diacritical markings, where those accents etc. are typed after the character and backed up over the character. They are not displaying correctly anymore. Plain Russian fonts as well have certain characters that aren't even recognized now. I am using PopChar Pro, and though they display correctly in its list, when I click on them, the wrong character is display in the text. Does this have something to do with Unicode? I use these fonts mostly in MS Word and Finale.
Thanks for any help on this topic.

Yes, it is true that these fonts do not display
correctly in Finale.
Last I checked Finale could not do Unicode, so it may be another problem. If it can do Unicode, you should be able to use Lucida Grande and the Russian keyboard layout. If not, you should be able to use a font with CY after the name with the Russian keyboard. You might want to ask in the Finale forums:
http://forum.makemusic.com/
Is there any sort of application
that can fix old fonts to be Unicode compatible?
It would be very complex I think and require an expensive font editing program like FontLab.
On another note, are you aware of whether Unicode
includes Church Slavonic (I suppose it would be in
the same category as Old Slavonic)?
Yes, it does. Just look at the Cyrillic block in Character Palette. Or here:
http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0400.pdf
However you won't find all glyph variations -- that will depend on the font. For an example of Slavonic Unicode you can see the last item on this page:

  • PNG files no longer display correctly...PLEASE HELP!

    Hi there, I just recently upgraded to Final Cut Studio 2. I have a project that I was working on prior to the upgrade and now making some changes in DVD Studio Pro 4.2.0. In my menus I am using a motion menu as the background and a PNG file created in Photoshop with transparent layers set as a Drop Zone so that the menu background can still be seen.
    These PNG files are no longer displaying correctly. It's really hard to explain except to say that anything that was transparent is now displaying a solid white. I have trashed the prefs and restarted with no improvement.
    Does anyone have any ideas? I was just going to make a small change for the client and now the whole project is not right.
    Many thanks, Simon.

    Hi:
    In DVDSP preferences, under Menu encoding settings change it from hardware based to software based or vice versa depending on what do you have now selected. Build again and check if it's solved.
    Hope that helps !

  • Fonts don't display correctly

    I opened a site to make some updates, and several of my fonts are not displaying correctly in the Design window.  When I click on Preview the fonts are correctly displayed, but some graphics and text move position. Is anyone else having these problems?

    I followed the feedback provided at http://forums.adobe.com/message/6273605#6273605 and renamed the folders tk1 and tk2.  This seems to resolve the font rendering issue for Bebas Neue and Rosario, but the Preview page still does not match the Design page with 100% accuracy. 
    It is at least usable now to make edits. 

  • Fonts no longer display in iTunes

    After updating iTunes, fonts no longer display in iTunes and a few other places. Fix ideas?

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them.
    Start up in safe mode to rebuild the font caches. Restart as usual and test.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
    If you still have problems, then from the Font Book menu bar, select
              File ▹ Restore Standard Fonts...
    You'll be prompted to confirm, and then to enter your administrator login password.
    Also note that if you deactivate or remove any built-in fonts, for instance by using a third-party font manager, the system may become unstable.

  • Some fonts are not displayed correctly

    We are developing an application where in the font for the whole application can be changed from a particular font dialog.the problem is that although it works fine for majority of the fonts, rectangular boxes are displayed for Impact, Marlett, Symbol, Webdings, wingdings font.
    i am doing a
    GraphicsEnvironment ge =GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment(); for getting the fonts and displaying it in a JList.Is there any way of suppressing these fonts from being displayed to the user ?

    Yes these fonts have one feature - see http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4279855.html
    so you can check them by next way :
         GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.
    getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
         Font[] fonts = null;
         if (ge != null) {
              fonts = ge.getAllFonts();
         for (int i=0; i < fonts.length; i++) {
              fonts.canDisplay('a');

  • Symbol font is not displaying correctly on mozilla 23.0.1?

    I am displaying a html page inside a frame having some Maths symbols, using SYMBOL font. but these symbols are not display correct on mozilla browser. provide some solution.

    Hi sangeeta, the problem with writing code to solve this problem is that you likely need to create a table or a pair of arrays to contain the corresponding characters. As long as you are going to do that, it might be easier to edit the pages. Or add an external script to those pages to "fix" the references.
    If you are saying that the HTML pages are out of your control, that's harder...
    Is it an option to load the page dynamically onto your server so it can be processed by ASP.Net and then served using a URL from your server?
    If not, are your page and the framed page on the same server? In that case, perhaps a JavaScript function that "fixes" the page could be useful.
    If not, it's hard to see how you can overcome the "same origin" security constraints and get to the framed page.

  • The fonts are not displaying correctly

    When I open a text box and type all of the fonts are all basically the same.  They donot display correctly.  I uninstalled and re-installed photoshop elements 11 and they still do not work.

    Hi,
    Have you tried resetting the Type tool?
    Click on the icon ...
    ...... select Reset Tool from the drop down list.
    If that doesn't work, please let know which operating system you are running on.

  • Hoefler text ornaments font is not displaying correctly in Pages

    I've imported an existing document from Appleworks into Pages. I am using Hoefler Text Ornaments (HTO) font occasionally, using the pointing finger. Pages indicates that the font is HTO, but displays the following key: ']' which is the proper key to press in HTO to get the pointing finger. All the ornaments are missing. I've used keyboard viewer and indeed the viewer indicates that there are no ornaments only normal text.
    I've confirmed that the font is named correctly, that the finger is part of the font, and that the original document displays correctly. I'm guessing that the HTO font is corrupted in Pages. What can I do?
    Thanks very much for your help.

    Frank,
    You're absolutely right. There's a button in the character palette labeled Favorites that will let you store glyphs. I think you and Gerry both have workable ideas. You can use the character palette or store special characters in a document.
    A question, Gerry: why use another program to store the characters? Since the user is already working in Pages, why not create a Pages document, then paste in the character he/she might want to save? What am I not understanding about this?

  • Font delay in displaying correctly over the web

    Hello all,
    I've made a PDF file from a PageMaker document. All fonts have embedded correctly.  When the PDF file is opened directly from my computer's hard drive it immediately displays correctly.  However, if the PDF is uploaded to my website then viewed over the web, a font with large lettering, which I am using as a title at the head of a short story, initially does not display correctly.  It seems to take two or three seconds before it "switches" from a basic, flat non-serif to the correct script font I've chosen.  Is this normal behaviour, or is there something I can do so that the font lettering displays correctly as soon as it appears on-screen?  Viewers have found this delay a bit off-putting.
    Thanks,
    Roger3

    To deploy your forms on the Web you need to install Oracle9iAS EE.
    This will install and configure the Oracle Forms Server for you.
    Your next step will be to run the fmx that you currently have assuming that you are deploying your application server on the same OS as your client server development.
    I suggest that you read this paper first:
    http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/forms9icstowebmigration.pdf
    If you want to understand the architecture better:

  • My artwork no longer displays correctly after updating to iTunes 10.5.

    With the most recent iTunes update, the artwork is no longer displayed properly.  The songs on my hard drive display fine in iTunes. However, the artwork for songs on my iPod do not display in iTunes (I have limited space on my computer's hard drive, so when I manually add songs to my iPod, I delete them from my hard drive, therefore the songs on my drive and on my iPod are different). Thankfully, the artwork does display properly on the iPod itself.  So it is not a corrupted artwork issue.  When I am playing a song from my iPod through iTunes, it WILL show the artwork, but ONLY if the playing song is highlighted.  Once I highlight another song, the artwork display window goes blank. This is regardless of whether the artwork window is set to "Now Playing" or "Selected Item."  Also, if I change the window setting to "Now Playing" and I highlight a song other than the one playing, the window automatically reverts itself back to "Selected Item" and again no longer displays the artwork (unless I go back and highlight the currently playing track).  Additionally, when adding artwork through the "Get Info" display for groups of songs, it will not display the artwork in the "Get Info" box after I have added it to the file(s) as it used to do prior to updating the software.  This is true for songs both on the iPod and on my hard drive.  The artwork is indeed being added, because when I click "ok" and then play (and highlight) the song, the new artwork displays.  This is really frustrating!   (I should note that I tend not to use "automatically download artwork" because most of the music I listen to is quite obscure and often does not have artwork available by iTunes without me adding it myself).

  • Fonts Do Not Display Correctly in Safari and Firefox

    Certain fonts do not display smoothly in Safari and Firefox. They appear to have little pieces of the letters missing. I'm sure others have experienced this problem before but I could not find how to fix this. On the Apple Discussions the fonts look fine... on Google for example, they look messed up. I do not know specifically which font(s) are displayed weird but it happens frequently. This happens in Safari and Firefox on my MacPro and MacBookPro. Is there a setting to fix this?
    Thanks,
    -flash

    Hello Flash, welcome to Apple discussions; )
    Look for Helvetica Fractions and Times Phonetic Fonts, if you have them,
    they can be the usual suspects.
    Check the Text encoding in both Safari & FF, under the "View" menu.
    In System preferences-> Personal (top section) in Appearance tab->
    on the last portion of the panel Font smoothing Style: set that to Automatic
    If those don't help, see this users tip excellent article Kurt Lang's ~ Font Management in Mac OS X
    Look into this application to find any corrupt font[s]Font Finagler
    Good luck, let us know how you fare.

  • FONTS: numbers not displaying correctly

    Hi everyone,
    I just installed the ProggyClean font, and everything displays fine but the numbers on my status bar.
    Any suggestion what could be wrong?
    I'm running the awesome desktop manager.
    Thank you.

    Have yopu gone to Font Book
    Font Book is located in the Applications folder (in the Finder, choose Go > Applications). To manage or view fonts, open Font Book, or double-click a font file.
    High Light all the fonts    ( Shift and click 1st one  Shift and click last one) and
    then select File/Falidate Fonts
    Then making sure all the fonts get a green tick box.

  • Third party forms no longer display correctly.

    I inserted a form using code from InfusionSoft for a client and it displayed fine on the Muse page (not in the Preview or Design mode, but once it was uploaded it was fine).  That was on or about January 02. 
    Today, January 05, I attempted to insert a form for another client using iContact.  The form just wouldn't display properly. 
    After 2 hours of messing with it and testing it on other sources (WordPress, for example, where it displayed nicely), I decided to insert the InfusionSoft form from the first client into a test page for the second client.  Now, the form that worked before did NOT display correctly. 
    Was there an update during this time that muffed this up on Adobe Muse?  I enjoy the product, and eagerly look forward to updates. In fact, Muse is one of only 3 products I really use anymore from the Creative Cloud package; however, I have to be able to easily insert forms.
    Any advice, suggestions, comments, or compliments (yeah, I included compliments, cuz after 2 hours of non-billable frustration, I could use a smile).
    --Dave

    After another hour or more: to fix the issue with forms not displaying correctly:
    Upload the site to the host (even tho the form does not display correctly).
    From the Cpanel's File Manager (or via ftp) go to
    css folder
    then to
    site_global file
    locate the lines:
    body,div,dl,dt,dd,ul,ol,li,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,pre,code,form,fieldset,legend,input,button,te xtarea,p,blockquote,th,td,a
              margin: 0;
              padding: 0;
              border-width: 0;
    and remove the word "input," .
    end.

  • Font does not display correctly...

    When setting my default language to 'Vietnamese', I cannot get Google and Gmail pages to load up correctly; boxes appear where the font is unknown. I have tested this on the latest Safari, OmniWeb, Firefox and on 2 other iMacs both running Tiger with no avail. To test this yourself without causing anything permanent to your system, visit google.com and change default language to Vietnamese under language settings (there's a link at the bottom to revert back to english). There will be one or two characters at the bottom of the page with boxes instead of letters. This effect is worsened when you visit Gmail in Vietnamese. I've tried installing different fonts and changing up the encoding, but nothing has worked so far. Can someone shed some light on this, or even better yet, can someone just tell me how to fix it? I've spent over a week on this issue and cannot figure it out. PLEASE HELP!!!

    I forgot to add that Vietnamese seems to appear correctly on all other webpages on the internet, just doesn't seem to work right on Google pages... This wouldn't be that big of an issue, but I just got my dad a Mac and he can only read and write in Vietnamese, and of course I had to get him a gmail account when we were showing him how to email on a PC... Now I'm trying to get him accustomed to using a Mac and his email doesn't work correctly...
