Translate iBook to Japanese/Japanese font not rendering

Hi, I'm currently working on an iBook that is to be translated into Spanish, Italian, and Japanese. Whereas Spanish and Italian will not be an issue, I am trying to figure out how to display Japanese characters in iBA and am having trouble. I noticed that a number of IBA-safe fonts (I'm currently trying to use Osaka but am open to any other suggestions) are available, however when I attempt to type anything with them, only the English characters appear.
Ultimately, my client will be suppling a full document in Japanese that I'll simply flow into the layout, so my only concern is getting the characters to render properly.
Any ideas?
Is it even possible to use Japanese in iBA? If not, I need to let the client know ASAP.
Many thanks.

even after selecting some of the international fonts from that pull-down (like Hiragino—which I may not be Japanese but just for the sake of testing), they still render in English.
You can't switch languages by switching fonts on a computer.  Instead you have to switch the keyboard layout, and then the correct font is used automatically.  For OS X, you go to system preferences/language & text/input sources and check the box for the keyboard you want (Kotoeri for Japanese), plus the box for Show Input Menu in Menu Bar.  Then you select your keyboard from the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen and type.

  • [solved] GTK3: Fonts not rendering smoothly

    Here's GTK3 app and GTK2 app side by side:
    Fonts are not rendering correctly on any GTK3 app. I use Ubuntu's patched versions of freetype2, fontconfig and cairo from AUR:
    freetype2-ubuntu fontconfig-ubuntu cairo-ubuntu
    How can I get GTK3 apps to render fonts correctly? I don't use any DE, just dwm as window manager.

    Stupid me!
    The cairo-ubuntu from AUR had failed to build. Followed Ichigo-Roku's tip in comments and now everything works.

    In the PKGBUILD you have to replace "autoreconf" by "autoreconf -fi".
    Anyway, thanks for your help and sorry for taking your time.

  • Fonts not rendered same on iPad and Mac, Safari

    Hindi fonts are not rendered the same in Safari running on iMac and iPad.
    Safari on iMac works much better for Hindi, It is similar to Firefox.
    Firefox works best on both Mac and PC.
    Can this be fixed?

    Hindi has never been supported on the iphone or ipod touch, and it is also not supported on the iPad, which uses the same OS. Apple lists the supported languages in the tech specs for these products. There is no way to change these.
    To tell Apple you want Hindi added, go here:

  • Fonts not rendering properly. Am I missing something?

    I have PS Elements 10 for Mac. I've been trying to figure out why my text is not rendering properly. I type out a word and although caps lock is OFF, the text shows up in all caps. Also, the spacing between letters is wide. I've been trying to search through help and options, but can't find anything. Does anyone have any suggestions on what could be wrong?

    At the far left of the options bar is a tiny triangle. Click it and choose Reset Tool from the popout menu.

  • Non-English fonts not rendering correctly in iMovie 10.0.3?

    I use xenotype Tibetan font in iMovie and it has always rendered correctly until I updated from 10.0.2 to 10.0.3. Now many of the stacked characters do not render correctly in any of the titles. Even projects that I made three months ago with 10.0.2 when opened in the new version render the font incorrectly. Is there a reason for this change? Is there any adjustment I can do? Line-height adjustment? iMovie 10.0.3 seems to be the only Mac software currently made by apple that doesn't render the font correctly.

    Hello,
    Welcome to the discussions. There have been some transition problems reported, although maybe not so many problems as you are experiencing.
    I had the black/flash with the transition cross-dissolve in one of my movies recently. I found the suggestions in this thread to resolve that: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=3842119#3842119
    Have a look and see if it can help you.

    For some odd reason, Elements stopped rendering my fonts properly.  For instance, if I use an old standby like Rage Italic, the lettering is not smooth rather choppy like an old System type font.  I've tried uninstalling and then reinstalling but nothing seems to work.  I also reset the tools and still nothing.

  • Fonts not rendering in safari?

    After an uneventful upgrade to lion, I have found that on many web pages, fonts aren't rendering - I get a placeholder for a character, but it's obviously unreadable.
    Changing the fonts in the preferences doesn't help; and other browsers do not have this issue. Just safari, and only after upgrading to Lion.
    Any ideas?

    Apparently Lion's version of Safari doesn't approve of the use of the fonts in my boot camp partition, and Consolas was the offending font.
    Curiously, when consolas is enabled in Lion, Safari doesn't render _any_ monospaced fonts, even if the monospaced font selected in Preferences is Menlo or Monaco.
    I've seen similar issues visiting microsoft sites - here, disabling all of the microsoft fonts on my boot camp partition was necessary.
    I really like consolas; I would have already done it if I knew it wouldn't break on Lion - maybe the commercial version works where the one Microsoft distributes doesn't; but as it's a gamble at this point, I guess I'll have to use something else...

  • Fonts not Rendering in PDFs Adobe Acrobat, Preview

    We use custom fonts for a lot of our work as designers. Some of these fonts, particularly 'Oswald' renders terribly in any PDF in OSX Yosemite.on
    These fonts render correctly in MS Word in Mac and Windows computers (sigh).
    Please advise and thanks in advance.

    I had the same problem as you with the same font. It turns out it's a bug with OpenType fonts, so convert it to a TrueType font instead, and it's fixed!

  • Cfdocument: font not rendering

    Hi: I have a webpage that prints a photo with text underneath that is in specific fonts.
    This works fine when it is rendered as a normal webpage: the fonts display exactly as they should, but when I wrap the code with a CFDOCUMENT tage the fonts revert to standard fonts i.e., the wrong donts.
    I'm tearing my hair out. Does anyone have any ideas?

  • Fonts not rendering properly in Safari 3.1 (5525.13) in Leopard

    Most web pages are coming out with strange line spacing -- letters squished together of far apart or completely missing. When I change default font sizes in preferences, it will help one page and cause another to render illegibly. I have my Standard Font set at Times New Roman 12. Should I be using a different version of Times. I just checked and even changing fonts completely doesn't solve the issue.

    I'm not experiencing your problems but the Standard font in Safari is set to Times 16 and Fixed-width font is set to Courier 13.

  • Fonts not rendering properly

    I'm in Safari on Mountain Lion, however, I had this problem in 10.7 on Firefox/Chrome/Safari.
    This is the only website that I've observed this issue with, and it's only when they use this style of headline, all of the others and story text appear as they are supposed to.
    Now, I if I attempt to copy the headline, and for instance, paste it in the address bar of Safari, it displays properly: "Are your kids safe on the school bus?"
    The website is dmregister.com. It's their front page headline about an investigation into Iowa School buses.

    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 the support article linked below for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them, then boot in safe mode* (by holding down the shift key at the startup chime) to rebuild the font caches. Boot again as usual and test.
    Mac 101: Font Book
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode. In that case only, after running Font Book, launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    sudo atsutil databases -remove
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. After running the command, reboot as usual.

  • LibreOffice Fonts Not Rendering Smoothly

    This is kind of hard to explain, but in LibreOffice Writer (GNOME) the fonts don't seem to render smoothly when changing to zoom factor.  It's like when you zoom in, rather than adjusting the font size smoothly, the letters just end up looking bold.  They only look normal at <=100%.  It's strange.  This issue occurs for all fonts.
