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.

    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'

    [ 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.

  • 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.

  • Tip for embedding fonts while maintaining bookmarks

    I've been sent a couple of very large PDFs in which the fonts aren't embedded properly. They're either missing, or the Adobe Serif MM has been used and embedded instead. This can cause the fonts to display and print poorly.
    Using the Preflight "Embed all Fonts" didn't seem to work, so I decided to export as PostScript, then Distill again, which seemed to fix everything.
    However, the documents were several hundred pages, and had extensive Bookmarks. These bookmarks were now lost in the re-Distilled version.
    The solution? Replace all the pages in the original PDF with re-Distilled PDF. Bingo: Properly embedded fonts, with all the bookmarks.
    There may be another method (export pdfMark in the .ps?) but I couldn't find it, and I thought if anyone was in the same boat, they might like to know this. Obviously, in an ideal world, I would get the creators to re-supply, but they showed no interest.

    Instead of printing a PDF with the PDF printer you can just flatten it, which renders the form fields static.
    This is a good (and free) tool for that: UVSAR : Selective Flattener tool for Adobe Acrobat 8, 9 and X

  • When Patch for embedded fonts and Lion OSX to be released?

    Was reading through the thread about the problem with embedded fonts and Lion OSX and a patch being released the 3rd week of August. Does anyone know about the patch being released?

    This patch was released as 11.5.9 a couple of weeks ago. See this thread:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/895280?tstart=0
    You should be able to get it through the Help / Check for Updates menu - but I would definitely be aware that it seems to have created a couple of new issues for some users (documented in other forum posts at forums.adobe.com).

  • What does "fon0" or "fon1" mean for embedded fonts?

    I am working with a vendor who is producing reports for our company. We have instructed this vendor to use our fonts and design standards. The reports are delivered to us as PDFs, and ultimately are delivered to our customers, who of course do not have our fonts so we need them to be embedded in the PDFs.
    I am trying to verify that they are indeed using the fonts we have specified, but am seeing confusing results in the sample PDFs they have provided. I can see that the fonts are similar, but not quite the same. For example, periods, when magnified are squarish rather than round.
    When I look at Document Properties/Fonts, I do not see the font names that I would expect. I see two apparent embedded fonts - fon0 and fon1, both shown as TrueType (CID) and Encoding as Identity-H.
    Does anyone have any idea what fon0 and fon1 represent, and why I am not seeing familiar font names?

    Thanks, Dave.
    In the past, if I recall correctly, if a font is not embedded and is not available on a given computer you would still see reference to it in Document Properties/Fonts. Are you saying that if the font is not installed on the machine producing the PDF, but that font has been specified, it will map to this generic name?
    The strange thing is that the fonts look pretty similar. Does "fon0" and "fon1" contain some information that would try to perform a match to something installed on my computer?
    I cannot find reference to Preflight in my Acrobat X. Is that because I have Standard and not Pro?

  • Using AS Linkage name for embedded font not working in CS6

    "Myriad Pro" with bold and italic styles embedded with the linkage names "Body", "BodyBold" and "BodyItalic".
    Creating a TextField using Flash CS6's toolbar and setting its font to "Body*" works fine, but not when its htmlText value has <b> and <em>, etc, tags.
    This also does not work:
    style.setStyle(".something", {fontFamily:"BodyBold"});
    ... but this does:
    style.setStyle(".something", {fontFamily:"Myriad Pro Bold"});
    Using the AS Linkage name worked in prior versions. I like using them because I can change global fonts for "stage" elements.

    Is there a list of Microsoft Fonts that will work with Pages?
    Are you actually seeing a noticeable difference in the fonts after conversion? While there are some difference between those fonts, they are very subtle differences and in all likelihood will not really change the look of the document.

  • Euro € symbol for embeded fonts

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to use the Euro sign in an application, to render
    some data in Labels formatted with a CurrencyFormatter for which I
    specify '€' as currencySymbol.
    The symbol is displayed when no style is used for the Label,
    but when I assign an style with a fontFamily specified, that is a
    Verdana I embed using a @font-face, the symbol doesn't show up.
    If I do not specify the unicode range, all symbols should be
    embedded with the font, don't?
    Marc

    Hi Greg, thanks for answering.
    I'm using "font-face" to embed the font, specifying a system
    font (I'm in Mac, with Leopard). Do you think it is correct?
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <mx:Application xmlns:mx="
    http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
    <mx:Style>
    @font-face {
    src: local("Arial");
    fontFamily: mainFont;
    .mystyle1 {
    fontFamily:mainFont;
    fontSize: 20pt;
    </mx:Style>
    <mx:Script>
    </mx:Script>
    <mx:Label text="€ 400"/>
    <mx:Label styleName="mystyle1" text="€ 500"/>

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Cannot extract the embedded font 'F2'. Some characters may not display or print correctly.

    This question was previously published but no answer has been found.
    Error message is :
    "Cannot extract the embedded font 'F2'. Some characters may not display or print correctly."
    Many pdf documents display this error with Adobe Reader 8.1.0. We have errors for embedded fonts 'F0','F3','F7' and so on.
    It looks like a Adobe Reader bug because :
    - All PDF files can be opened with Acrobat Reader 5.0.5, 6.x and 7.x, can't be opened with 8.1.0 version.
    - the 8.1.1 update removes only the bug for 'F0' error message (issue #1572280).
    The solution :
    - to publish a 8.1.2 update to fix this important bug
    - is there a registry parameter or tool option to disable the checking added in 8.x version of Adobe Reader ? The 8.x version catches more errors to be compliant with Adobe specification but Adobe reader must be
    compliant with all documents generated by third party products.
    This Adobe Reader bug applies to Windows Vista, XP Pro SP2, 2000.
    Thx,

    Just to let you know, for anyone else with this problem. I had this problem occur on a MAC when you tried to do save to PDF in excel. This was all happening at the point of generation of the PDF in my case.
    The fix was to delete ALL the microsoft preferences, but perahps only the font cache needed to be deleted.
    I deleted the following areas from the local users userprofile on the mac. On windows, I would probably log in as a differnet user to try to see if the problem just exsists for one particular user.
    Here are the sections I deleted:
    Library/caches/metadata/Microsoft*
    Username/library/preferences/com.microsoft* ( and anyhting with microsoft in it)
    I did leave the entourage settings though.
    hope it helps someone with a similar issue.

  • How do I solve the embedded font issue that ibook proofer does not accept?

    I have several books I created in ID 6 and am now trying to prepare them to sell on iBookstore - and as others have noted ID creates a file for embedded fonts - I cannot find a way within ID to defeat this option when exporting to EPUB 3.0.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    In EPUB Exports Options/Advanced/CSS Options you could uncheck Include Embeddable Fonts.

  • Embedding font in app

    Hi,
    I'm using LTC Bodoni (via TypeKit) on my website and now I'm working on my digital portfolio: basically HTMl5+CSS, packed with Baker Framework to be published on Apple Store.
    I would use the font with @font-face.
    I'm wondering if the licence of Bauer Bodoni allows this kind of use.
    I want ot be sure before buying the font...
    On Bauer Bodoni webpage (http://store2.adobe.com/cfusion/store/html/index.cfm?store=OLS-IT&event=displayFontPackage &code=1294) Embedding licence is set to Editable for this font: so I could embed the font in a digital document and "the embedded font can then be used by the recipient of the electronic document to view, print and further edit or modify the text and structure of the document in which it is embedded."
    Using a font inside an app is a little bit different: my final file is not a real document, it's an app. But the recipient (final user) will not be able to modify the document or use the font in no way, because it will be embedded inside the app.
    Does someone have any idea?
    Does licence cover use inside app or not?
    Thanks!
