Why does the font rendering in Italics look weird? It is displayed as a script with hugely elongated almos 19th-century letters.

Sometimes, when I open a page of say a newspaper or a blog, instead of the italicised version of a font, I get an elaborate curlicued text instead, like some 19th century version of Ialics. This has now been going oin for about 3 weeks. It went away briefly, but has now come back again.

  • Why does the font rendering change after I publish to the web?

    I created an animation in Edge Animate with four slides, using Open-Sans as the font. The font rendering looks good in Edge Animate and looks good in the local html version as well, but when I publish it to the website, the font formatting is not acceptable.
    Here is the local HTML version:
    Here is how it appears on the website:
    Is there a way to control this better?
    Thanks.

    Hopefully someone else will be brave enough to respond to this, but in the meantime, the best solution I have found so far is to post the animation files to a separate directory on the server. Then pull that page in using an iframe. This way the animation is not influenced by the parent page's styling.

  • Why does the Photoshop CS6 Application window look grainy on a 15" MacBook Pro Retina?

    Hi. Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum.

  • Why does the @font-face work in a Private Tab, but not in a normal Tab?

    I consistently find that the @font-face does not work in Firefox unless I use a Private Tab, but I prefer to use a regular Tab so that I can keep track of what pages I have visited. In a Private Tab the Android app displays Hebrew with cantillation marks as nicely as Windows does using the very same font. This is probably an unintended bug, as I cannot imagine why you would want Private Tabs to work better than the regular ones. The css function in question is:
    @font-face {
    font-family: 'Shlomo LB';
    src: url('../ShlomoLightBold.ttf') format('truetype');
    font-weight: normal;
    font-style: normal;
    }

    Hello,
    Thank you for bringing this up. There is an open issue in Bugzilla - [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769194 src:local() @font-face rules doesn't work on Android]. But in this case you are mentioning a src:url, so I don't know if they are related.
    Also, can you please confirm if you are using NoScript or any other plugin on your browser and if there are settings that differ for the normal tabs vs. private tabs (noscript has an option to block @font-face).
    Would it be possible for you to create a sample for testing this?
    Thank you

  • 'Highlight' Character Style -- Why Does the Font Change?

    I want to define a style that mimics a highlight marker.
    Choose some text, set the background/fill to yellow.
    Highlight filled words, then choose 'Define Style From Selection..."
    Then, in the More... selection I deselect every attribute of the character style except for the fill colour. So this should highlight text, but leave every other attribute of the text unchanged -- I think.
    But whenever I apply it, the font changes to something I don't recognise -- even though the font is not a part of the character style description.
    What am I doing wrong?
    TIA

    You need to make sure the font is embedded in the PDF. This is optional in some sofware.
    If it is not embedded, your local font is used. No such local font exists on the iPad.

  • Why does the font change when I combine files?

    I am trying to combine PDF files into one document using the "combine files" tool online.
    The new file that is created changes some of the fonts to different fonts (I think it is having difficulty with times new roman in particular). I need to keep the original fonts when I combine the files, how can I stop it from changing the fonts?

  • Why does the font used for iTunes show as an outline?

    I cannot get the font used for iTunes to change from an outline. I am using Suitcase Fusion and have turned on and off the Office fonts etc.

    Try this: Go to Control Panel, Fonts.
    On the left pane click "Font settings" > uncehck "Hide fonts based on language settings" > Click "Ok" at the bottom. Restart you computer just to be sure the setting went through. See if that helps.

  • In iBooks, why does the font change?

    If you turn to the next page in iBooks, the font is nice and light, if you switch apps then switch back, the iBooks font is thicker, almost bold. You can take a photo of the pages to prove it's not an illusion. This is ios 7 on a retina ipad.

    I should have mentioned - I'm reading a PDF.

  • Why does the font change when importing to my ipad as a pdf

    I have a publisher document with black chancery font which was not on my current computer so I installed the font. It now appears in my document and when I save it as a pdf it seems to be there. BUT when I send it to my iPad the font is not what it should be.

    You need to make sure the font is embedded in the PDF. This is optional in some sofware.
    If it is not embedded, your local font is used. No such local font exists on the iPad.

  • Why does the font size change unexpectedly when I use the touchpad with my new HP laptop with Windows 8?

    Frequently the font size will change when the touchpad is touched. This is annoying! Is there a setting adjustment I can make to keep this from happening?

    This is very experimental, but since no one else has replied...
    I'm not sure which computers are affected, but Firefox has some support for touchpad "gestures" on multi-touch touchpads. Most of the ones that affect the zoom level of the page are the "pinching" gestures, like a smartphone screen. However, it seems that by default a "tap" will reset the zoom level, and that might be the problem here.
    Could you try this?
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''gest''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click '''browser.gesture.tap''' and change it to... I'm not sure whether there is a command for "do nothing" but you could try typing or pasting in '''cmd_selectNone''' which cancels the current text selection in the page (if any).

  • Why does the Font color change on my front panel?

    I'm using the Font Dialogue to change the color of highlighted text on my front panel. After I save and reopen my app some of the Text will revert back to their original color (Black). Is this a bug in or am I missing something?

    I assume that you want all control labels with white text. If I change the black ones to white and save the VI, the white text color is retained.

  • Why does the file size change when put into an iDVD project? And problems with dual layer discs...

    I exported a short video of mine from Final Cut Express and the size of the file came out to 7.3 GB. When I put it into an iDVD project, it says that the file is only 800 MB. I tried just burning it onto a dual layer disc anyway to see if it might still burn at the original file size, but the disc came out unusable for some reason, and obviously hadn't been burned anywhere near full-capacity. So, I tried it again, and the exact same thing happened.
    I guess my first question is: why is iDVD changing the size of the file? I want the quality to be the best it can be, so keeping it at 7.3 GB as opposed to 800 MB is rather important.
    Secondly, why did the dual layer discs come out unusable? I've burned single layer discs before and they haven't been an issue. Also, I know for a fact that the drive can burn dual layer discs, so that isn't the issue.
    Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide me with help on this issue.

    Guessing here but it looks like you edited/exported an SD/DV sequence of about 30 min in FCE. DVD needs to be MPEG-2 so iDVD compresses the original file down to the size that you report.

    The quality will be what the MPEG-2 compression and the software allow for. MPEG-2 is DVD standard .... there's no way around that.

    Guessing again but it would seem that you burned a Data DVD instead of a Video DVD which would be unusable by a set-top player. As I said above you can't get around DVD standards.
    If by any chance your video was HD originally you can try to go the Blu-Ray route using Roxio Toast or FCS 3 (discontinued) or FCP X. You will also need a Blu-Ray burner.
