What font is my UXterm using?

I'm using UXterm. This is my .Xresources:
UXTerm*eightBitInput: false
UXTerm*metaSendsEscape: true
UXTerm*reverseVideo: true
UXTerm*bellIsUrgent: true
UXTerm*faceName: Terminus
UXTerm*faceSize: 7
Neither community/terminus-font nor aur/terminus-font-ttf are installed. This is what happens when I look for files named "Terminus" on my system:
danilo@t410:~$ locate Terminus
/usr/share/kbd/consolefonts/Lat2-Terminus16.psfu.gz
/usr/share/kbd/consolefonts/README.Lat2-Terminus16
The problem is that I'd like to patch the currently used font for Powerline, but don't know which font I'm using. I always thought I was using Terminus, but if you look at the shapes of the lowercase L character, you see that this isn't Terminus:
Another difference can be seen in the N character:
Here are Terminus screenshots for comparison: http://terminus-font.sourceforge.net/shots.html
When I remove the "UXTerm*faceName: Terminus" line from my .Xresources, the font changes and looks like this:
So the line clearly does have an effect. Something else I discovered was that if I ctrl-rightclick in the terminal and remove the checkmark next to "TrueType fonts", the font immediately changes and looks like the last screenshot above.
So apparently adding the "UXTerm*faceName: Terminus" line to .Xresources makes UXterm switch to some true type font which is not Terminus.
Is there a way to find out which true type font is currently loaded in UXterm?

The default TrueType font for xterm and its variants is set to use the font matching the name 'mono'. Check with:
$ fc-match mono
It is most likely DejaVu Sans Mono.
The bitmap fonts selectable from the Unicode Fonts menu are specified in '/usr/share/X11/app-defaults/UXTerm'. "Default" is given as:
*VT100.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1
Other than the ISO encoding, this is the same font as 'fixed' and '6x13'.

How do I discover what font Firefox is actually using?

How do I discover what font Firefox is actually using?
Inspect Element does not tell me what font is substituted.

There is a panel for that in the Inspector. On the right side, where you normally see CSS rules, look for the Fonts tab. It should show the actual font being used by the element selected in the HTML "tree" on the left side.

I need to compare pdfs and see what fonts and colors are used. Do I need professional and pitstop?

I need to compare 2 pdfs plus be able to click on text/paragraphs and identify fonts and color. I know pro can do the compare and pitstop plug-in can do they fonts/colors but is there one thing that does both? Can I have professional and pitstop on one machine? I have them on seperate computers now. Thanks.

PitStop is a plug-in. That means it does nothing by itself. Rather, it adds buttons, menus etc. to Acrobat.

How to tell what fonts are missing in a Photosohp CS5 document?

Hello! I have received some work from a graphic designer. I need to modify some of the text in the document. When I open the document I get an error message:
Some text layers might need to be updated before they can be used for vector based output. Do you want to update these layers now? [Update] [No]
If I click [Update] it replaces the font with Myriad Pro. If I click [No] the text looks the way the designer intended, but I have the exclamation mark-triangle symbol over the layer with the text. If I try to edit the text I get another warning:
Editing or rendering the text layer "Text Layer" will cause its layout to change. Continue? [Cancel] [OK]
The same behavior described above occurs. If I click [Cancel] I obviously can't edit the text. If I click [OK] it changes the font to Myriad Pro.
I would like to determine what font the layer is using. I could swear that previous versions of Photoshop would tell me what fonts were missing when I opened a document. I can't use the text tool to select the text without it changing the font. Other posts have mentioned using the text tool to look at the text drop-down to find a greyed-out font which indicates the missing font. I do not have that. I only have perhaps 200 fonts installed. Can anyone tell me how to determine what fonts a .PSD document is using? I would prefer not to bug the graphic designer if possible. Thanks much!

Not sure why you are getting ""Font is present on the system but requires a layout change.", usually you do not get that instead the name of the font shows.
We use extensis Universal Type Client, so the fonts load automatically upon opening files, and never really get missing fonts in Photoshop.
Actually fontbook has auto font loading if you want to give that a try. Fontbook >> Preferences

Is there a way to see what font was used originally, after the type has been converted to outlines?

Hi all, I would really like to know if there is any way to find out what font was used originally in an Illustrator document, after the type has been converted to outlines? The reason for this is I need to update some wording in a couple of old logos I had made and I have NO idea what font I had used...for the life of me I just cannot remember. Because this was so urgent for one of my projects I had to do a search online via "WhatTheFont" to see what font it could be (which I then didn't seem to have in my library!), and repurchase it. I am 99% sure I HAVE the font - or something VERY close - but under a different name.
Normally I keep a much better record of fonts used but there have been times occasionally in the past when I have done something in a hurry and changed the type to outlines without keeping the original, or keeping detailed notes at least. The fact that I did NOT keep notes on a few projects I have done in the past has made me want to kick myself because now I need to revisit one of those again..grrr:)
Can anyone offer any advice? I appreciate your help as always:)
best,
Christine

Is there a way to "see" what font you're using?

Hi,
I'm a bit new to PAGES. I thought when you turn "Show Invisibles" you would see things like what font you're using . . . if it's bold or underlined or italicized - things like that - you would see these characteristics in the body of the document. So if I were writing a paragraph and changed the font in the middle of it, I could actually "see" a symbol indicating the font had been changed. That way, if you wanted to change it back, you could just delete that "invisible" symbol, and change it.
WORD seems to work like that. Is there a way to "see" these symbold in PAGES?
Thanks,
Larry

Thank you, Barry. At least you've confirmed what I thought
Interesting that WORD (which I hate) does such a nice job in this area. When you want to "see" invisible symbols - WORD shows them all to you. I thought it was nice to see exactly 'where' in the document a different font or style might start - that way you can eliminate it there - or change it there - etc. But PAGES, won't even show you. Wonder why they only show you 'some' invisible files?
Thanks, though, for your reply.
Larry

My Extensis suitcase 11.0.4 is no longer working with my system OSX10.6.8, what is the best and cheapest font management software to use that's compatible with this system and CS software

my Extensis suitcaseX 11.0.4 is no longer working with my system OSX10.6.8, what is the best and cheapest font management software to use that's compatible with this system and my existing CS design software?

If you upgraded to Snow Leopard, then it would seem that Suitcase 11 is not compatible with Snow Leopard and you'd need to buy Suitcase Fusion 3 for $99.95.

My pages body test font has all changed from what i want -helvetica- to another font- papyrus that I use in just a small section and I want to change it back.

Working in Pages, I'm using two fonts for 'body" text, and somehow I changed All the document body text to one of them. How do i change it back?

I would use the File ▸ Revert To ▸ Browse All Versions, and travel back in document time to where your document body text is not all one font. You can use the space bar on each document version to Quick Look it to verify. When you have found what you want, select it and Restore.

FAQ: What font is used by the London Underground (London Transport)

This summer, while on vacation in the UK, I spent a few hours in the London Transport Museum. Surprisingly enough, in their gift shop, two items for sale attracted my attention. One was a book and the other, a collection of fonts!
Every so often, the question comes up on this forum and others as to exactly what font is used in the London Underground. The book in question,
Johnston's Underground Type by Justin Howes definitively answers that question and provides quite a bit of background on the subject.
To summarize, the basis of the font used today is
Johnston Sans, dating back to 1916. Johnston Sans also had an upper case-only bold face. These two faces were used with various modifications until 1988 when the font was modernized with the release of
New Johnston, a family of nine typefaces based upon Johnston Sans. The family includes light, light italic, medium, medium italic, medium condensed, bold, bold italic, bold condensed, and stencil weights / styles. New Johnston Medium most closely resembles the original Johnston Sans face in terms of weight and style.
Neither the original Johnston Sans nor the current New Johnston are licensed by London Transport for any external use.
However, at the London Transport Museum (and I believe on-line from the P22 Type Foundry), you can purchase a license and media for P22's rendition of Johnston Sans including three faces - P22 Underground, P22 Underground Bold (uppercase only), and P22 Underground Extras (symbols associated with London Transport over the years). Included on the CDROM are both Type 1 and TrueType versions of the typefaces in both Windows and Macintosh formats. The designs were officially licensed from London Transport. The EULA (End User License Agreement) carries some
very strict restrictions with regards to embedding in PDF or any other file type as well as commercial use of any printed output formatted with these typefaces.
A fairly close (and less restrictively-licensed alternative) to the P22 package or for Johnston Sans and New Johnston (neither of which are available for license) is ITC Johnston, available in Type 1 and TrueType versions in both Windows and Macintosh formats. Fifteen individual typefaces are available including old style figures and small caps, italic styles, as well as light, medium, and bold weights. Alas, they are not (yet) available in OpenType format.
In any case, further information and background is available in
Johnston's Underground Type by Justin Howes.

I was. I have to say as much as there is a lot of negativity towards Larry Jordan, I really respect him for not shying away from adversity and talking about the issues quite Frankly. I mean, his talk was laced with quite a lot of rhetoric ("it's not the end of the world", etc etc), but he didn't decline to answer any questions (including my own: "what were they thinking").

I'll try to transcribe the recording today as it was the only thing that's come close to an official word on the situation from Apple, though I have to say the recording is not particularly good :/

What font is used for Layer palette PS CS1 Mac?

I have a render issue with Photoshop CS (8.0).
The font used to show the layer and action names is wrong (see below)
Does anybody know what font should be applied to this text? Then I can check if that font is installed correctly.
For now it seems that all fonts that should be in OSX 10.6 are present.
The problems started when I removed HelveticaNeue.dfont and installed the complete Helvetica Neue Open Type set (all 40+ weights instead of the cripled Apple set).

What font did Adobe use for the Layer names and context bar (OSX PS CS1)?

I have a problem with my Snow Leopard install. When I disabled the font protection of OSX, to install the full Helvetica Neue set (not just the limited DFont set in OSX), I damaged something. All text in Photoshop CS1 that is used in the input fields of the context bar, and for the names of layers, paths etc is wrong. As text is too big now, the program is harder to use.
What font is normally used in these locations? I need to know what files to put back.

Things change.
Adobe changes things that don't really need changing so they can call it a new .0 version and sell it for a bunch of money. They also change things to follow modern trends in UI design.
Sometimes, they want to push other tools to do some of the things Photoshop used to do. This is so they can make even more money by selling more products!
Have you been through every intermediate version, or are you making a several version jump? I ask because the total amount of change in each .0 version has been manageable. And I personally feel the changes have been worth the money, though perhaps just barely. That's the key in business.
