Support for Type 1 fonts

I tried modifying the xdo.cfg to support new font and this is the syntax I used.
<font family="AkzidenzGroteskBE LightEx" style="normal" weight="normal">
<type1 pfb="c:\fonts\AKZGBELE.pfb" pfm="c:\fonts\AKZGBELE.pfm" />
</font>
When I generate the font, in Word and HTML it works well but not in PDF. Generating in PDF only defaults to Arial. Is the syntax correct?

Hi
Its not actually working in word and html - you have the fonts installed on your machine so browsers and word know how to access the fonts directory - your config setting is not needed and is therefore ignored.
To get it working for PDF (Adobe is not aware of the fonts directory) you need the config set up correctly.
You need:
[br]
<font family="IDAutomationC128S" style="normal" weight="normal">
<type1 pfb="D:\fonts\IDAutomationC128S.pfb" pfm="D:\fonts\IDAutomationC128S.pfm" />
</font>
[br]
If you can possibly use a truetpye font we would recommend it.

  • Nokia support for MONOSPACE font

    Nokia support for MONOSPACE font
    hi,
    Perhaps Im going mad but my Nokia 60series emulator and 7650 device doesnt seem to support a font with face: MONOSPACE.
    setting a font to MONOSPACE in the default WTK emulator correctly spaces all characters equally. However when I run my code on a Nokia emulator or device, the spaces of characters are unequal and their widths remain unchanged from the SYSTEM face settings.
    If anyone can help with a solution or explanation, pleeezzzz
    thanks in advance,
    Larry

    Not every device has every type of font. When you ask for a specific font, and the font doesn't exist then the system will find the best match for it.
    The only way to be sure you have a monospace font on every device is that you include that font yourself, and draw your own characters using drawImage() with that font.

  • Support for different fonts in design mode

    It's very difficult figuring out where to place components in
    design mode when special fonts are used. Because they take up
    more/less space than the default font (used in design mode), the
    actual sizes of components when the app actually runs is never the
    same as they were in design mode.
    Basically if you're using special fonts, design mode becomes
    half useless. Is there a way around this problem? Can we at least
    change the font that design mode uses somehow?

    Heh, just noticed it DOES work on my highest level mxml file
    (application tag mxml), but not the others. Still experimenting...
    seems to be a bug of some kind, I guess.
    It seems that if you specifically include the style tag:
    <mx:Style source="../../../css/yourCssFile.css"/>
    It works fine, even for mxml nested in sub folders. Of
    course, this is ugly- I had to put a bunch of ../'s just to reach
    the css file I need, AND "refresh" the design view for it to
    work...
    And why this annoying warning message when I specifically
    include the CSS into an mxml I want to use design view on?
    "CSS type selectors are not supported in components."

  • Support for OpenType Font with .otf Extention

    Does anyone know how to list a OpenType fone with extention of .otf in Java runing on Windows XP?
    When I use GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getAvailableFontFamilyNames(), it doesn't list any font names with .otf extention.

  • Underline support for embedded fonts

    So I downloaded and quickly integrated Squiggly and it works very well.  The only issue is that the underlines become skewed.  The more lines there are in the TextArea, the more skewed they get.  After ~30 lines it's actually an overline.  Our fonts (pfm) are embedded through a precompiled Flash swf.  I found this other thread which is marked as solved:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2561081#2561081
    But that thread was originally dealing with a padding issue.  Does anyone know if/when this issue is being addressed?  Or is there something I can do mitigate the issue.  When I switch to a non-embedded font the issue goes away.
    Thanks,
    Erik

    While the padding issue got resolved, the bug with embedded fonts is still there.  There is some problem when calculating the y coordination inside the TextField object.
    As for workaround, this bug is only for mx.TextArea, if you can use the spark.TextArea this issue should go away.

  • IOS Asian font support for apps?

    In iOS 6, Apple removed support for Asian fonts needed for pdfs whose Asian fonts are not actually embedded in the files. 
    Does anyone know if there is an app in the App store that contains these fonts that would make them available for other applications to use?  Or would that be considered a change to the OS and not be allowed?
    For myself, resaving these PDFs to embed the fonts is not a viable option - I have 2,000 of them on my iPad and not only is that more work than is worth, but it increases the size of each file by a factor of 10.   Not only that but they open a lot slower (I tried it on one or two of them).  It's a terrible idea if one has a lot of files.
    I'm looking into other manufacturers' tablets to replace my iPad to see if they h, but if I can find an app that will let me keep my pad for the purpose for which I bought it, that would be even better.
    Thanks!

    but mine has no asian font supports since fw updated.

  • Support for other types

    Will there be support for types other than those listed when one uses the "create table" tool (or APIs to create other types)? For instance, it would be nice to see support for SDO_GEOMETRY when creating tables.
    Thank you in advance.
    -Justin

    Well in the create dialog for a table you can type in your data type. However, the display of those datatype will not all be there in 1.0.

    I got again a total system freeze today when I wanted to launch firefox using only the openbox menu, without wbar running.
    So I decided to try now the 'nouveau.noaccel=1' kernel command line parameter, and to use again wbar for my frequently used applis.
    In the Xorg log, the differences are:
    without 'nouveau.noaccel=1'
    [ 30.761] (II) UnloadModule: "nv"
    [ 30.761] (II) Unloading nv
    [ 30.761] (--) Depth 24 pixmap format is 32 bpp

    [ 30.777] (==) NOUVEAU(0): Backing store disabled

    with 'nouveau.noaccel=1'
    [ 1191.621] (II) UnloadModule: "nv"
    [ 1191.621] (II) Unloading nv
    [ 1191.621] (--) Depth 24 pixmap format is 32 bpp
    [ 1191.621] (EE) NOUVEAU(0): Error creating GPU channel: -19
    [ 1191.621] (EE) NOUVEAU(0): Error initialising acceleration. Falling back to NoAccel
    [ 1191.621] (==) NOUVEAU(0): Backing store disabled
    [ 1191.621] (==) NOUVEAU(0): Silken mouse enabled
    [ 1191.621] (==) NOUVEAU(0): DPMS enabled
    So now 3D acceleration is disabled.
    I will see now if the system is stable enough for my daily usage and gives satisfactory performances.
    I am almost sure that the mesa nouveau dri driver is the cause of the freezes.

    I have everything set for Arabic fonts and the keyboard as well. When I type in WORD or EXCEL I just get individual Arabic letters, but they never connect, they should be for example like this   الس    but they always appear like that ا ل س

    MS Word for Mac has never supported Arabic.  You have to use other apps.  Mellel is best, but Pages 5, TextEdit, Nisus Writer, or Open/LibreOffice should work OK.
    Sometimes you can make Word for Mac do connected Arabic if you are editing a document created with Windows Word.

  • Provide Muse UX for Typekit font/weight/style support

    Hi All,
    While Adobe Muse is an amazing product, the Typekit support team graciously answers my questions, and the Muse team has been improving the product rapidly; full font, style, and weight support from within Muse is soorly lacking. I understand Muse is relatively new, but here's my request for web type support like type is supported in Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator. Sooner than later.
    Why? Because Adobe Muse was made for this. 
    Adobe Muse helps graphic designers create and publish dynamic websites for desktop and mobile devices that meet the latest web standards — without writing code.

    Hi ibhhvcc,
    Right now, there's not an easy way to do this in Muse. Editing the CSS files that come from Muse would allow you to use other weights/variations but of course this involves diving into the code.
    Going forward, we plan to improve the Typekit/Muse integration and I'll definitely share your thoughts with the team.
    If you have any further questions or feedback, feel free to drop us a line at: [email protected]
    Cheers,
    Benjamin

  • Open type font "Myriad Pro" support in Java AWT

    Hi
    I have installed open type font "Myriad Pro" on my machine.
    When I use the following AWT APIs on jre 1.6, I dont get the open type font "Myriad Pro" in the font list.
    Code snippet
    java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment     ge = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
    if (ge != null) {
         java.awt.Font[] fontList = ge.getAllFonts();
    The fontList variable doesnt have "Myriad Pro" font.
    My question is
    1) Is the open type font "Myriad Pro" supported by java AWT?
    2) Is there a workaround to get that particular font?
    Thanks
    Vikas

    When I print out the list of all the fonts java recognizes on my machine, all the otf fonts (about 70 of them) are missing including Myriad Pro. All the true type fonts show up. You might need to convert the Myriad Pro into a true type font to get it recognized in java.
