Something Strange happen with my FreeHand - see if you know why?

Hi All,
Not sure if anyone here have been experiencing what I am about to show.
The font MyriadPro suddenly become like this... see attachment.
Why?
Jack

Hi Maeric,
No worries, my problem cannot be solve if I keep it to myself and everyone else do the same. We have to come out of our shell and be counted so we will know how many of us are out there in the same boat. When you spend so many years mastering a software like FreeHand and knowing how productive and efficient it has been, it is heart breaking to know we can't do much as individual to save it from the Giant palm of Adobe to thumb it down.
This latest set back fortunately is not isolated to only FreeHand but instead it is got something to do with Open Fonts.
For the time being I will just use Postscript fonts.
I am still hanging on to FreeHand for as long as it can still run and hopefully someone come out with a brilliant idea to revive it.
I am not give up yet.
I will always believe in FreeHand and will always love FreeHand
Thank you
Jack Png

  • Something strange happen with my app store account

    Hello everyone,
    At home we have two computers, mine is a MBP Retina and my wife has an iMac. Yesterday she got an uppdate advise and when she went to uppdate the application "The Unarchiver" app store said that she has to connect with my accout in order to uppdate the app. I tested deleting the app from the iMac and ran app store updates again and it found an uppdate for the same application and that is strange since I deleted the application, App Store should show "download" not "update". I tested with other apps and I didin't have any problem in downloadning nor updating with my wife account. 
    All this in my wife computer (iMac)
    I took a look anyway to my computer (MBP) and app store doesn't have any update pending for me and I have "The Unarchiver" installed.
    Is someone else with similar problem?
    Thanks for any comment or help since my wife is driving me crazy, everyday asking what is the problem.

    If the update on your wife's iMac asks for your Apple ID to update the app, that means that this app is your content bought with your Apple ID and you have shared it with your wife and authorized her Mac to use your content at some point in the past. Even on her Mac, your content is your content and requires your ID and password to be updated.
    If it was saying update instead of install after you deleted the app, then there is likely a backup of your wifes Mac that has the old version of the app. The Mac App Store (MAS) can see its apps on attached/mounted drives and partitions.
    Check the version number of the app on your Mac, maybe you already have the latest version.

    its not same as google but it called AutoNavi. so I was happy with apple and I though apple has updated their maps.
    but when I go back to Saudi Arabia , I was surprised that maps back as before , and when I look to china map , again all disappear metro , etc . also its using again tomtom maps !!
    Does this happen with anyone ? or someone knows about it ?

  • Something strange happening with my fonts

    Hi there,
    Please see the link to this pdf.
    http://mssociety.ca/bc/pdf/2012_Footnotes_1_print.pdf
    The PDF is supposed to have all the fonts embedded, but page 1 is showing up wonky - sometimes. Some of the fonts on page 1 are incorrect. They should all be Futura. The rest of the pages seem to be fine - and they use all the same fonts. Not sure why this would only affect page 1 if the fonts weren't embedding properly.
    But sometimes when you refresh or reload the page, it loads correctly and they are Futura. I don't get it. It happened sporadically on my other co-workers computer as well.
    And if you save the pdf to your desktop, and then open it, it's fine.
    I appreciate any help in advance.
    Screenshot of fonts loading incorrectly.
    Screenshot with fonts loading correctly.
    Thank you!

    Thanks for the posts everyone!
    A new development. Part of the problem is that the fonts are not displaying on the first page – but what make the document really unusable – is that the “ff” is missing from “Dollars making a difference” in the table of contents. Since “ff” is a ligature in the pdf I wondered if that was part of the problem.
    I re-exported the pdf in this version – but replaced the “ff” ligature with just two fs instead. http://mssociety.ca/bc/pdf/Walk_Footnotes_1_2012_web_NVI.pdf
    This is a web-res one but I had the problem with press-ready and web-res files.
    This one appears to be fine now. Can you tell  me if it loads correctly on your machine? Maybe a problem with ligatures then….Which is a pain if I have to take them all out of my pdfs.
    This only appears to be a problem when viewing the PDF in a web browser. If you save it your computer and open it up it seems fine.
    Bill@VT – I’m not sure why Times New Roman didn’t embed in the first pdf…Strange. But the font that is used all over that first page – which is not displaying correctly is actually Futura.
    The PDFs were exported from InDesign CS5….and I have Acrobat Reader X (10.1.2) and Acrobat Pro 9.5.0
    daniel27lt – the image on the front page is 1.8 MB jpg. I exported both Press Ready PDFs and Web Res PDF from InDesign and they both have this problem when viewed in the Web Browser. I don’t think converting all my images to GIFs is going to be a good solution for me and I do believe the problem is in the fonts.

  • I recently had my iphone 4s screen repaired because the screen was cracked. It was all ok and then a few weeks later something strange happened. My touchscreen works, but the screen doesnt show, you can see the light in the background but no picture?

    I recently had my iphone 4s screen repaired because the screen was cracked. It was all ok and then a few weeks later something strange happened. My touchscreen works, but the screen doesnt show, you can see the light in the background but no picture? has anyone got any ideas as to what the problem is, is it self-repairable or even repairable at al?

    The LCD Display connector has partially come loose from the logic board connector, and simply needs to be pressed back down into place. Or the front screen assembly is now faulty, and needs to be replaced again.

  • Something Strange happens in my wireless card

    i have a wireless card in my laptop.But,something strange happens.And i'm really confused:(.
    lspci | grep BCM43
    and i got:
    04:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
    then type:
    lspci -vnn | grep 14e4
    i got:
    04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g [14e4:4315] (rev 01)
    06:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5787M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express [14e4:1693] (rev 02)
    so, i think the "Broadcom BCM4312"page in archwiki(ie.http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Broadcom_BCM4312)may help.so i just do as the wiki page.
    after that,i use Wicd to manage them.
    it seems evrything is ok:D. the wireless card was marked with  "eth1",and the previous "eth0".
    but,something strange happens: after  i reboot my laptop,then ,they exchange their "names"! the strangest thing is that it seems to happen randomly!
    for example,nothing happened since the day before yesterday.but.this morning,they changed
    and this is the "MODULE" line in my rc.conf:
    MODULES=(acpi-cpufreq cpufreq_ondemand !ssb lib80211-crypt_tkip wl !b43  vboxdrv vboxnetflt vboxnetadp !vboxadd !vboxvfs)
    so,any advice?

    Notes on trying out netcfg:
    - install netcfg: pacman -S netcfg
    - set up a profile file in /etc/networks.d (copy a file from /etc/networks.d/examples and edit it)
    - add the name of the profile file to NETWORKS=() in /etc/rc.conf
    - add '@net-profiles' to DAEMONS=() in /etc/rc.conf (put it after 'network',  prefixed with '@' so you don't have to wait for the network just to log in)
    - remove the name of your interface that you want netcfg to set up from INTERFACES=() in /etc/rc.conf (so it doesn't try to set it up twice)
    - also turn off whatever other network configuration daemon, like wicd, you might have been using.

    It's better to post the URL of the feed (as you have subsequently done) than the contents of the feed .
    From the FeedValidator report the feed is basically OK for iTunes. There are several occasions where 'content:encoded' sections (following immediately on 'guid' tags) should be enclosed in
    <description>...</description>
    tags: however all this will be ignored by iTunes anyway and only applies to other readers. The 'potentially dangerous content' referred to by FeedValidator is within the 'content:encoded' tags and so isn't relevant to iTunes. They are referring to an inline css style, and I don't know whether this might cause a problem elsewhere.
    You should really have a language tag, e.g.
    <language>en-us</language>
    (you have a dc:language tag but that's for a different system). This should be placed in the top section, before the first 'item' tag.
    It's advisable to have an 'itunes:explicit' tag for each 'item' -
    <itunes:explicit>yes IF CONTAINS ADULT MATERIAL, OTHERWISE no</itunes:explicit>
    it's not compulsory if you have no adult material, but you must have a 'yes' if you do.
    You can check your feed by subscribing in iTunes from the 'Advanced' menu - this has the same result as clicking the 'Subscribe' button on the Store page. If it works OK there you are ready to submit it.

  • I am having problems importing some CDs into iTunes on a laptop with Windows 8. Most CDs import without problem. The ones I can't import can be imported into iTunes with Windows 7. Does anybody know why this problem is occurring?

    I am having problems importing some CDs into iTunes on a laptop with Windows 8. Most CDs import without problem. The ones I can't import can be imported into iTunes with Windows 7. Does anybody know why this problem is occurring?

    First-off, this seems to be a general problem with 10.4 (across all the operating systems of which I am aware).  Unfortunately, I cannot provide a permanent solution but, if you need a quick fix, this will (hopefully) work for you.
    For some inexplicable reason, iTunes no longer recognises standard Windows paths.  For example:
    Y:\Music\Buddy Holly\Buddy Holly - Rave On.mp3
    The end result is that it will import a playlist with no content. 
    It will, however, recognise the equivalent Apple paths which look like this:
    file://localhost/Y:/Buddy Holly/Buddy Holly - Rave On.mp3
    It is possible to convert your existing playlists using a few basic replace commands in something like Notepad.  In my case, I made some code changes in my music manager and now generate two sets of playslists (one standard and one to accommodate iTunes).
    Forgive me foir stating the obvious but please remember to make sure that the disk / path containing your music is accessible when doing the import otherwise you will probably get a blank result.  Note that you can do a bulk import by selecting all the (revised) playlists and dragging them onto the iTunes sidebar.
    I am sorry that this is not a "clean" solution but it will work if you are in a bind.  The only alternative of which I am aware is to wait for Apple to fix the problem.

  • When syncing to my PC iTunes gets stuck at step 7 of 7 with "waiting for items to copy" - do you know why?

    when syncing ipad2 to my PC iTunes gets stuck at step 7 of 7 with "waiting for items to copy" - does anyone you know why?  The rest of the sync seems okay

    i don't know why it happens. but i know how frustrating it can be. the same thing happened to me. i posted a few inquiries in different apple forums and didn't get any ideas of how to fix it. i did however find a solution on my own.
    i found that if i did a "restore my ipad" that it fixed it. i was hesitant at first because i was afraid of loosing valuable information. but much to my relief i didn't loose any thing. other than an hour of my time.
    this seemed to fixed my problem of being stuck on "waiting for items to copy". my ipad now syncs both wired and wirelessly without any hang ups. however i would suggest that if you are syncing a large amount of data (movies for example) that you do it wired and not wirelessly. i found that it takes a lot longer to sync movies wirelessly.
    good luck

    I don't know the answer, personally, because I don't use Lightroom. This is the Camera Raw forum.

  • Something is gone in Indesign menu. I dont know why, but the «textwrap» is gone and «stroke». How can I fix this?

    Something is gone in Indesign menu. I dont know why, but the «textwrap» is gone and «stroke». How can I fix this?

    When you switch active Extension Set or enable/disable extension(s), Extension Manager will create/update PluginConfig.txt. InDesign will read this file at launch to determine which extensions (plug-ins) should be loaded or not. If this file doesn't exist, InDesign will load all extensions. Also complicated dependency relationship exists among extensions. I am not sure how these extensions ran into incorrect state.
    If sometime you have to use Extension Manager, you have to reset the state BEFORE launch it. Otherwise Extension Manager will recreate this file based on incorrect database records and file state.
    1. Delete "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Configuration/DB/ExMan.db".
    2. Delete all files in  "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/EM Store/InDesign CS6"
    3. Delete all files in  "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Extension Manager CS6/Mxi Flag/InDesign CS6"
    4. Move all files in "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/InDesign/Version 8.0/nb_NO/Extensions/REMOVED" to the parent folder "Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/InDesign/Version 8.0/nb_NO/Extensions".

  • Something strange happened while I was working with CS4

    I'm not sure whether I accidentally hit a keyboard shortcut or clicked on anything without knowing, but for whatever reason, my clips on the timeline weren't "snapping" into place when I move them around like they were before. Does anyone know why this is happening, and how I can reset it back to the way it previously was?
    Another strange thing that happened: I was resizing some footage to remove something from the side of the frame, but when I resized it, it didn't ask if I wanted to confirm this change and no box came up showing progress on rending the frames, like it normally does when I do this. I'm a little worried that it hasn't rendered them right.

    Resize where. Timeline, Effect Controls, AME? Be more precise.
