TCS3 Frame Conditionl text causing tiny fonts in RH Topics

With a linked FrameMaker book, in the Conversion Settings dialog box > Other Settings, I've selected Apply FrameMaker Conditional Text Build Expression. In FrameMaker I've selected Show as per Expression.
The results are disappointing. In apparently random paragraphs in topics that include conditional text, RH is inserting this in the html:
<span style="font-size: 4.0pt;">
Sometimes it inserts it alone, and sometimes it includes it with other extraneous information such as:
<span style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;
font-size: 4.0pt; letter-spacing: 0.00em;">
There are no paragraph ovrrides in any of these instances, and it only happens when Apply FrameMaker Conditional Text Build Expression is selected. I could build my expressions in Robohelp, but I'd prefer to manage conditions in Frame for reasons such as excluding many sections (topics in RH) that are conditionalized as "print only." With this check box selected, they don't appear in RH; but without it selected, I'd need to conditionalize the topic again in RH.
Any thoughts?

I just wanted to update in case anyone else has a similar issue.
The problem has gone away and I'm not entirely sure how I did it. I suspect it has to do with how I displayed the conditional text in FrameMaker. Typically I'll just use the Show/Hide dialog box to move conditions to the Show or Hide areas. When I instead built an expression that excluded the conditions (e.g, NOT"Cond1"ANDNOT"Cond2" etc), the problems with the tiny fonts ended. Interestingly, the problem persisted when I built expressions that included conditions.

Smooth Text causing inconsistent font thinkness.

Using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Version 9.0.0, I have "Preferences -> Page Display -> Rendering -> Smooth Text" set to "For Laptop/LCD screens." This setting initially give me a beautifully rendered ArialMT/TrueType. This is the "Actual Font" used for Helvetica in a PDF I am reading. As I scroll through the document however, later pages render the font with a heavier line thickness, making them look bolder. I find that if I resize the program window then the thinkness returns to the initial width and looks good. I can repeat this cycle. In the end the work-around is for me to resize the program window for each page I read. This is a bit tedious. I don't have the behavior with Smooth Text turned off. I am running Vista with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 XT. The "Use 2D graphics acceleration" option does not affect the behavior so I don't know that the graphics card is a factor here.
Has anyone else experienced this inconsistency with the line thinkness of the font smoothing? Is there a fix or something I should look at to debug?

It seems that this problem is limited to a specific PDF file. This leads me to suspect that it is the font that causes the problem. Based on the Font properties reported by Acrobat it seems that it is using the standard Arial font which should work reliably. Is there a way to get more detailed information about the fonts being used by Acrobat for the file?

A tiny font is used in many places across Java Swing applications (help!)

In many places in Java but mostly in text boxes I'm seeing a very small font that is quite hard to read.
I am seeing this all over the place in Java programs and it is getting on my nerves.
I'm not sure what is causing this.
I also encountered this issue when running Java on Windows XP.
I really need help on how to solve this,
Or maybe it is actually a bug with Java itself and Windows?

That is not a problem. Somewhere in that code the programmer uses setFont(....) to make it a smaller font. The default font of a text component does not behave like that.
For more help create a [SSCCE (Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program)|http://sscce.org/], that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour.
Don't forget to use the Code Formatting Tags so the posted code retains its original formatting. That is done by selecting the code and then clicking on the "Code" button above the question input area.No, it's defiantly a problem. Probably in the default fonts that Swing uses in some places.
I detected one place where I can easily trigger this issue, a JTextArea And the Windows Look and Feel, So here is a SSCCE for you:

Creating frames with text

I am building a music video that is going to be set to stills and frames of text. I am 101 when it comes to FCP. How do you build frames, simple background, different fonts and simple movement of text?

FCP has a rudimentary text generator and a slightly better one called Boris.
If you have FCS 1 or 2 you can use LiveType or Motion for some very neat title animation.
LiveType is not included in FCS 3. Most of its functionality has been incorporated into Motion 4.

Tiny font on Menu Bar & on window when using Apple Mail on new Macbook Air

I have a new MacBook Air and all is good - except my Mail window has tiny fonts, including on the tool bar, and the Menu Bar is also has smaller fonts when Mail is active. I have made the actual messages readable but the rest of the screen is almost too small to read.

I just got my new MacBook Air and I was also really, really disappointed that the menu bar fonts - and all default text sizes in general - are much too small. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that the optimal resolution for the monitor is now 1440x900 instead of 1280x800 as it was in the older MacBook Air models. I guess I just have to go to the optician and get myself a pair of glasses...
But I think this is clearly a design -related problem that Apple should fix asap!

Why is UI text-size tiny in InDesign CC 2014?

I just upgraded to InDesign 2014 version 10.0.0.70 x64, and the UI text is tiny. The menu text (i.e. when you click on "Edit" the options "undo, redo, cut, copy, paste, etc.") is normal size, but the tools panels and everything else is tiny.
My Windows (7) text-size is already set to 150%.
Any suggestions?

Seriously the only thing left is a bigger monitor. I'm up to 30" now because every time I nee to reaplce one they raise the darn monitor resolutions so I can't use the small ones comfortably anymore.
I feel your pain.

Text caption changes font/colour/size

Hi
The Recording Defaults for the Text Caption in the prferences has not been altered.
On some slides I need to add a text caption.
I'm finding that sometimes when I click to add a Text Caption the font, colour and size is different to what the default settings are. The default is Arial, 12, #0000FF.
When I manually add a text caption it'll show as System, 10 and black.
Has anyone come across this before? Is there a way to stop it. It's really annoying and a time waster to have to manually change the font, size and colour. And you have to be on your guard. It's not every time I manually add a text caption, just sometimes. It's intermittent.
Thanks
Anita

Hi there
The name will vary from version to version.
Captivate_v10.dat
Captivate_v20.dat
Captivate_v30.dat
Captivate_v40.dat
The location also varies. For me, it is:
D:\Documents and Settings\Rick\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Captivate
As you can see, D is my drive letter. Yours will likely be C. My name is Rick and is how I log in. Yours will be different. Also, the "Application Data" folder is likely to be hidden from your view unless you adjust Windows to show it to you. And all of this is likely in a different location if you are using Vista or Windows 7. I'm using XP Pro.
Note that you cannot edit this file. Captivate does that internally. About all you are able to do is to close Captvate and delete or rename it. Captivate will then cook up a fresh one when it starts up and cannot locate it.
Cheers... Rick

Creative cloud - Menu Bar and Palette's are tiny font.

I just downloaded creative cloud on my lenovo Yoga Pro 2. The size of my Menu Bar and Palette's are tiny font. However, Lightroom menu bar and palette's are in a normal size easy to read font. Can anyone tell me how to change just Photoshop?

For now the solution seems to be using the Scale 200% setting in Edit>Preferences>Experimental Features.
There is also a setting in Edit>Preferences>Interface>UI Font Size that enlarges some of the fonts, although not the menu bar.
After changing either setting, you need to restart photoshop to see the changes.

Hel with modifying cs5/6 script...create anchored frames from text

hello
I have one great time saver script for cs5 for create anchored frames from text tagged with/or charachter style/paragraph style. This work in cs6 but have some "bugs" for me. Script need to be compatible with InDesign CS6.
1. script in original (look bellow) create text frame which is fitted to lenght of the text. I make change and change 466 line:
AnchoredTextFrame.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT);
now frame is wide as I write in check box, good. But frame not resize to lenght of the text so I add after above lines 466-470:
    var FO = FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT,
    tfs = ([]).concat.apply([], app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem().textContainers),
    t, i = tfs.length;
while( i-- ) (t=tfs[i]).overflows && ( t.locked || t.fit(FO) );
now all is ok but is here better way to make this to work? Simply, i want to spec text frame width in dialog box, frame will resize only verticaly in direction to amount text in frame. I dont want any overset text.
2. One "bug". For some reason script alter paragraph style of other text which is not subject to be cutted in anchored frame.
How to resolve this?

Модификация Б. Кащеев, www.adobeindesign.ru
Скрипт предназначен для создания привязанных фреймов из текста, отформатированного
каким-либо абзацным или символьным стилем. Эти стили задаются пользователем в диалоговом
окне скрита. Там же необходимо задать объектный стиль для привязанного фрейма, в котором
пользователь должен заранее задать оформление и параметры привязки. Далее необходимо
указать ширину привязанного фрейма, а его высота будет рассчитана автоматически исходя из
объема текста. При вводе дробных значений ширины привязанного фрейма в качестве
разделителя целой и дробной части следует использовать не запятую, а точку, следуя западным
стандартам разработчиков программы Adobe InDesign. Первоначально идея и скрипт по созданию
привязанных фреймов принадлежит Thomas Silkjær для версии ID CS4. C появлением версий CS5
и CS5.5 скрипт перестал в них выполняться, да и в версии CS4 не всегда корректно работал.
Анализируя недочеты скрипта в данной его версии были исправлены ошибки и внесены
функциональные дополнения исходя из понимания задачи автором модификации. Добавлена
возможность выбора стилей, если они они находятся в группах (папках), возможность выбора
единиц измерения из выпадающего списка, изменены GREP-выражения для поиска текста,

Hi Cari,
I did create a new user account (admin level) and InDesign works like a charm.
When I went back to the other account, plug-ins gone, I deleted the prefs and caches, restarted and still everything is crashing as before.
At least I am working on one account and I will contiue to troubleshoot on the other account. And at some point either the new account will crash or the old account will work and I will go from there.
Thanks for the info about Mac remembering info. Always trying to be helpful these Macs.
And thanks for getting at least into a workable space!!! I am supremely grateful!

When placing a Word document in a frame, the text over fills the frame boundaries.

When I attempt to place a Word document in an InDesign text frame, the text flows outside the boundaries of the frame. This also happens if I use the InDesign placeholder text.

I have just intalled PSElements 12 on a new PC with windows 8.1. It installed ok but when I open it up it displays different than on my windows 7 PC. The buttons and text are tiny and almosy impossible to see even when I drag it to full screen. How do I adjust it to look normal?

Hi Paul ,
It could be a compatibility issue as well as Acrobat 8 is an older version.
Do you get any error message while registering for the product?
Try repairing it and once and also check for updates as well.
Is it happening with all the word files or any specific one'?
