Used tip in fonts wiki; wrote to wrong file, need to see the original

one night while bored i decided to use the lcd packages mentioned in our fonts wiki.
wiki wrote:The "fontconfig-lcd" package enables by default the "lcddefault" filter. You can edit the /etc/fonts/conf.avail/10-lcd-filter.conf file and replace it with another filter.
i accidently misread this as /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-lcd-filter.conf. everything went smoothly (no loss in functionality or anything) but i randomly starting seeing an error while doing some tasks (like for instance, installing the cmatrix package)
paraphrased error (can't remember exactly):
error wrote:Error in /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-lcd-filter.conf. Invalid constant "lcddefault".
this was when i realized i edited the wrong file. but i don't know what to put it back to. i've tried "none", "default", and "lcdlegacy". "lcdlegacy" silenced the error while installing cmatrix (found that out while trying to get the error syntax for this post). but i _did_ pop up during some other task i can't remember now... i swear. all choices will randomly pop up that same error during some random task.
if someone's got the lcd-filters installed as per our wiki, can i see your conf.d/10-lcd-fonts.conf so i can put mine back?
many thanks
also, interstingly:
> pacman -Qo /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-lcd-filter.conf
error: No package owns /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-lcd-filter.conf
> pacman -Qo /etc/fonts/conf.avail/10-lcd-filter.conf
/etc/fonts/conf.avail/10-lcd-filter.conf is owned by fontconfig-lcd 2.6.0-1
should i just remove it? i feel like the error message would read differently if the file shouldn't be there all together... but i'll be happily corrected on that.
edit: typos... as usual

no, i want the fontconfig-lcd package... plus it doesn't own the conf.d file anyway, as per the pacman output. i just edited the wrong file and wanted to know what it looked like before i did that (i.e. on a default system). my post may be a bit confusing, i apologize.
i've removed (and saved) the file, we'll see how that goes...

Is there any way to increase the font size in the Creative Cloud. Using a Lenovo Yoga 2 with 14" screen and care barely see the menus

Is there any way to increase the font size in the Creative Cloud. Using a Lenovo Yoga 2 with 14" screen and care barely see the menus.

In short, no. There is no fix yet. They only barely acknowledge there is a problem. The "fix" is to enable 200% UI scaling which makes everything comically huge and unusable. This is pretty much of a joke. A really, really EXPENSIVE joke.

I am using a Mac and when I save my files as a jpeg, the files become much smaller, and consequently darker and blurrier. What can I do to fix this?

I have tried to figure out how to chat with someone at Adobe, but they certainly don't make it easy to do. At the moment, this program is useless to me. Very depressing....

I have always been able to zoom in on my photo by holding the cmd and space bar, that changed and now it creates a box and zooms in on that area and I can't zoom out using cmd space bar. How do I change it back to the original way of zooming?

Select the Zoom Tool in the tool box and see if Scrubby Zoom is unchecked or greyed out in the tool options bar.
(you want Scrubby Zoom checked)

Using most recent version of iTunes with Iphone 5, I cannot see the phone screen on iTunes.

I am using the most recent version of iTunes and when I connect my iPhone 5 to my Windows 7 pc, I can no longer see the screens for the iPhone in iTunes. I want to see them so I can rearrange my app icons. I see the apps but not in a iPhone screen view and they cannot be moved.

First, are you positive it is really not there? Have you looked in your iTunes folder in your Music folder, and in the media folders there? Do you see your media files?
If your media are gone it is a lot easier to restore from a proper computer backup. Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

When trying to create connection using Contribute 6.5, get error message "Unknown error. Please see the log for detail." The log says "Network connection timed out." What do I do now?

Have been using Contribute 6.5, and earlier versions, for years with Hostway without any problems. All of a sudden I cannot create a connection to our website. Tried to chat with Adobe a twice now and got no help. Yesterday they started a chat with me, then ended the session without any communication! My problem has been going on for several weeks now. I uninstalled Contribute, downloaded and installed again, but it did not help. Hostway had me connect with Zilla and everything worked fine. So, they say the problem is with Adobe. The last attempt ended with "Unknown error. Please see the log for detail." The log says "Network operation timed out." Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi There,
Can you please try using any other Internet connection outside your company's network and see if it is working? Alternatively, Can you please try the below settings from the Advanced... Menu while creating the connection using FTP details and try to create the connection again:

Is there a way to increase the size of the tool windows/fonts in InDesign. I am having trouble seeing the info (the font is too small)

Is there a way to increase the size of the font in the tool windows in InDesign? I am having trouble seeing the info (the font is too small)

Not possible. You'll need to go to your operating system and choose a screen resolution that displays the screen with larger pixels.
Or get a new prescription for your glasses (seriously!)

I did a system restore on my iphone 2 and used a new name (Allan 2). Now I need to access my original iphone apps on itunes, Where do I find my first phone display an itunes? thanks

I did a system restore on my iphone2 and used a new name for thr phone on ituhes (Allan2). Now I need to access my saved apps on the original phone name. How do I find the two phone profiles on itunes. When I open it with my phone it only shows Allan2. Thanks

If your apps were in itunes on your computer, then they should still be there. Just sync them back to the iphone.
BTW, the backup that itunes performs when syncing does NOT include music/apps/movies/tv shows etc.
Anything purchased on the iphone would have to be transferred to your computer. File>Transfer Purchases
Unlike music/vids/etc, you can redownload apps

Can the font size in Itunes Help files be increased? The font size is way to small to... 4pt!

Itumes for Windows 10.6
Windows 7 x 64
Is there a way to increase the font size displayed in the Itunes Help files? The size seems to be < 4pt and very difficult to read. Please advise.

Sometimes this can be altered by going inside the "plist" for the project and making specific changes. It is beyond my scope, but someone on these forums should be talented enough to suss it out.

If i set up a new apple id on a new ipad, will the people that used my old apple id on old ipad be able to see the photos in new ipad photostream?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
No they won't.
However if you use the same ID and change the password, they won't be able to see them either.

How to Use a Downloaded Font

How do I use a downloaded font with Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2007? The font is in a zip file. What I found on Google gave directions for Windows XP and I was able to find the font dialog box through the control panel, but there was no drop down file option (where I was supposed to be able to simply add the font), which is what all the sources told me to look for in Windows XP ... which doesn't really help for Windows 7. Please help!
Nothing I post is an official statment of Best Buy or Geek Squad, it is only a helpful opinion!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I can help you out with this! Windows 7 has made it easy for us to do this!
1. Right click on Zipped file that you have.
2. Click extract here.
3. You should see another folder appear that is unzipped.
4. Open that folder and find the font file. (There are a few different types)
5. Right click the font file and choose the option "Install"
That should do it! ( You can also delete the 2 folders you are left with once it is installed)
Hope this helps!

How do I use a Hebrew font in indesign?

How do I use a Hebrew font in Indesign?

You will need either the Middle Eastern version of InDesign, or a plugin like World Tools for the English version of ID. If you are a Creative Cloud member, you can just download the ME version by setting your langauge correctly in (I think) the Creative Cloud app. If you own a perpetual license for some earlier version of CS, then it's not so easy, and World Tools is (in my limited opinion) probably your best bet.
