Typing when using stylistic alternates of a font

Hi,
I'm working on something where I'm using stylistic alternates of a font as opposed to the standard weight for text. Currently, I have to double click on the letters I want from the glyphs panel to use them. Is there a way to not have to select each letter by double clicking and somehow switching to make it so that I can type the alternates instead of selecting them? Thanks!

Are they in a stylistic set, and is the set activated in the OpenType options from the Character panel flyout menu?

  • Arabic characters appear as empty squares when using certain HTML tags or font styles

    Only when HW acceleration is on. Arabic characters appear as empty squares when using "italic" or "oblique" font styles or when using <i> or <em> html tags.
    Try this code to replicate the problem
    <pre>
    &lt;p&gt;مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p style="font-style: italic;">Italic مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p style="font-style: oblique;">Oblique مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;i&gt;i tag مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف</i> &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;
    &lt;em&gt;em tag مشكلة ظهور المربعات الخالية بدل الحروف &lt;/em&gt;
    </pre>

    After lots of research, I found the problem. The boxes (squares) show up whenever there is a font in the webpage that does not have Arabic within its Unicode range such as Times New Roman Italic or Oblique. Normally, Firefox will pick another font to display the characters but now, a newly introduced feature is interfering.
    To fix the problem without turning off hardware acceleration.
    Go to about:config
    locate: gfx.font_rendering.directwrite.use_gdi_table_loading
    which is True by default in FF4.0 Beta 10, and change it to False.
    This is a bug that has to be fixed.

  • Problems when using Adobe Wood Type Std font

    I use Adobe Creative Cloud on an IMAC 21.5"/GT750M. Yesterday, I purchased Adobe Wood Type Std. Regular (Mac/Win, English). I installed this font by dragging it to the Font Book. The font is showing up on the font menu in Indesign, but most of the characters are showing up as black ovals or open rectangles with slashes. What have I done wrong? How can I get this font to work? Have I downloaded the wrong version for my computer/software?

    As mentioned above, they should be readily available in the glyphs palette in both InDesign and Illustrator (Photoshop does not have one). For other apps like Word, your download should have included both a Keyboard Layouts folder and a Readme folder with instructions on how to install and use them and an explanation of how Pi fonts currently work. If you did not receive those, contact me at [email protected] to let me know and I will send them directly to you. I tested Word myself and the font does list, albeit somewhat illegibly because of all the bullets and ornaments when in sample mode; if you switch the menu to text only, you should find it easily in the 'A's, but it won't work easily in Word until the keyboard layouts are installed.

  • TextInput control misbehaves when using the East-Asian fonts

    I am a little curious about this issue and I would like to get some help from our community. The issue is about fonts when using East Asian languages.I have all East-Asian language installed on my computer (WIN SERV 2003)and I let my flex application to use the local system font(font is not embedded) to get the Japanese character. When I start typing the characters into the Flex textinput control everything works properly as expected until I reach the boundary of the textinput control, the characters gets displayed outside the textinput and I would need to press the enter key to get the fonts inside the textinput . Have anyone experienced such problems when using fonts for Japanese, Chinese etc? Refer the image for more clarity.Please help

    This is the expected behavior for Japanese in my experience. The reason, I think, is that for Japanese characters the text input process has two steps. First the basic phonetic characters are entered and then these are selectively changed into kanji characters which can shorten the final input text. So it makes sense to calculate the textbox height after the text has been finally input, not while it is still being input. The enter key is the event that signals the text should be submitted. I don't know about Chinese, but for Japanese, this is the standard way of handling text input in my experience.

  • Default Mail Font ignored when using "Mail this webpage" in Safari

    This is not really a problem but more of a puzzling irritant.  I often use the "Mail this webpage" option in Safari (the small envelope icon in the tool bar) which opens a draft email with the then-current webpage's URL already embedded in the text area.  Prior to Mavericks when using this option the draft note triggered by Safari reverted to my default Mail font already selected via Mail's preferences pane.  Just as I would want it.  Ever since Mavericks though, when I click the envelope icon it brings up the draft email with the URL as before, but the text font for that note defaults to Times, not my previously-selected default Mail font (Lucinde Grande just for clarity).  So to stay consistent with my other email styling I have to manually click the draft email's Format button, select Lucinde Grande, and then begin typing.  I can find no place in either Safari's or Mail's preferences or options where I can change the default "send an email triggered in Safari" font. Emails originated in Mail properly use the default Lucinde Grande font.
    Once I go through the above and send the note, if I later repeat the same "mail via Safari" acion, the new note is again defulting to Times and I have to go through all of the above again.
    A companion oddity is that when I go through this and click the Format button once, nothing happens.  I click it a second time and then the font selection options are presented.  This happens consistently on 3 separate installs of Mavericks in our house (two iMacs and a MBP), and it has been this way from OS 10.9.0 through the updates to the current 10.9.2.  Any ideas, or anyone else experiencing this?  Thanks.

    This is very annoying behavior.
    I have a sudo work-around, although it's really just a different set of steps. If you use the new Share button (square with arrow icon) than the resulting email consists of a url at the top and text from the page below that. The first line of the email (empty) and the url are in the default mail font. Now just delete the text that was added from the page.
    I use this method because it seems like if I do it the other way the new message will sometimes go back to Times when I hit Return a couple times.

  • The problem is with the new operating system  and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.   From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow.

    The problem is with the new operating system  and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.
    From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow. This is solved by saving the email as a draft and opening the email again from mail.
    Can you amend he system to allow emails to be sent from photo as previously.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • Some Text Messages do not display when using large font on iphone

    When using increased font size (accessability function) on iphone some text messages will not display. The iphone just seems to lock up. If normal font size is used text massage displays with out any issue. When font size is increased, text message will not display again.

    Hi Peter
    Actually, Captivate does have an essentially unlimited number
    of undo levels. But that number may appear to be different. The
    number of levels starts when you begin editing the project. If you
    close and re-open a project, that starts the undo process over.
    I've tested and I gave up after about 280 or so undos.
    Where Captivate doesn't allow an undo, it normally warns you
    with a rather catastrophic looking dialog.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Hyperlink not working in presentation mode when using alternate display

    Made hyperlinks to jump from slide x to slide y
    That worked fine when testing in presentation mode
    When the same file is played using a beamer as alternate display the hyperlinks are not recognised: clicking will start the next build of the presentation

    Is there anybody who successfully used a hyperlink to jump from slide A to slide Y? (and when using the beamer as an alternate display, using the macbook pro screen for the presentation notes)
    If so, I can try to find out what I do wrong, otherwise it might be a bug in Keynote'08
    thanks for your attention in this matter!!

  • When I copy and paste from Word to my e-mail using Firefox it changes the font and spacing to single and 10pt. It just started doing this a month ago. It does not do it when I am on my laptop or using Explorer. Help, I hate explorer.

    If this were a project that I was involved in, I would recapture the media at the correct frame rate and rebuild the sequences correctly.
    Moving from production, to post production, to delivery is a series of steps, and the success of any particular step is based on having all the preceding steps done correctly.
    Shortcuts and workarounds tend to create awkward and difficult problems, that often only surface late in the process.

  • When using Mavericks, how can I automatically replace 'i' with 'I' when typing?

    When using Mavericks, how can I automatically replace 'i' with 'I' when typing?
    It was easy to do prior to mavericks using system preferences (language and text), but now I can only submit a 2 letter word to replace, not a 1 letter word. I have tried using a space but it doesn't allow that. I would assume that most people would love to be able to type quickly without having to make uppercase I all the time (first world problem i know), so I can't understand why apple have removed this feature.

    There is the shift key, or text replacement approach, providing you have enabled two things:
    Edit > Substitution > √ Text Replacement
    System Preferences > Keyboard > TextClick + to add a replacement
    Replaceii[spacebar]
    With
    I[spacebar]
    Press return
    Quit System Preferences
    Now, when you type ii, you will see a pop-up offering I.
    In the OS X App Store, search for WordService. This free collection of Services will enable you to just type your content, select it, and then choose the Service item, “Initial Caps of Sentences.” It does what it says.

  • Problem with printing perfomance when using a fixed width font

    Hello.
    I'm using the java.awt.print.Printable interface for printing text.
    Everything works fine when I choose a font like Serif.
    When I choose a fixed width font, like Courier, the printing becomes too slow!!!
    Any Idea?
    My code looks like that :
    private int sizeFont = 10;
    private font myFont = new Font ("Courier", Font.PLAIN, sizeFont);
    public int print(Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int indice)
    Graphics2D g2=(Graphics2D)g;
    while(myCondition){
    g2.drawString(myString,0,0);
    g2.translate(0,this.sizeFont);
    return Printable.PAGE_EXISTS;

    If it interests someone, I have found a solution :
    do not use "Courier", but "Courier New" .

  • Font size when using HOMESITE 5.5 trial version

    Used homesite 4.0 for many years but now with a new computer with vista, I'm using the trial homesite 5.5. The trial version when using the Browse mode displays the font size larger than what was displayed in homesite 4.0 but the size is normal when using the "view in external browser". Is this normal with the free trial version and will be okay when I download the full Homesite 5.5 version? Or maybe, there is some setting I have done causing this. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    I don't think there's any setting inside HS that can cause this. With HS closed open IE (7 or 8) open the menu bar (Tools > Toolbars > Menu Bar) and from the menu bar (View) check that the Text Size and Zoom settings  are both Medium and 100% respectivley, then open HS and see if the problem is still there.
    I'm not using Vista so if it's specific to that platform I doubt I'll be able to give any more help.

  • Is there any way to use embedded commands in text to create pauses when using text to speech in iOS 5? You can do it in OS X by typing [[slnc 2000]] to get a two-second pause.

    Thanks for the reply Russ.
    Yes, I've considered adding titles and/or generators in the FCPX storyline, but this creates a need to render the entire timeline. As I'm juggling library locations and hard drive spaces I just didn't want to add a new render that will occupy a lot of space. It's also a bit of visual clultter for me, so my goal is to find the best workflow for adding this stuff on or after export.

    Hi Matthias,
    Sorry, if this reply seems like a products plug (which it is), but this is really how we solve this software engineering challenge at JKI...
    At JKI, we create VI Packages (which are basically installers for LabVIEW instrument drivers and toolkits) of our reusable code (using the package building capabilities of VIPM Professional).  We keep a VI Package Configuration file (that includes a copy of the actual packages) in each of our project folders (and check it into source code control just as we do for all our project files).  We also use VIPM Enterprise to distribute new VI Packages over the network.
    Also, as others have mentioned, we use the JKI TortoiseSVN Tool to make it easy to use TortoiseSVN directly from LabVIEW.
    Please feel free to contact JKI if you have any specific questions about these products.
    Thanks,
    -Jim
