howdo I turn off font ligatures in konsole? or only when konsole is running certain programs like vim. I turned it off in vim but ligatures didnt go away, so the problem is konsole. any help is appreciated.
So I selected all documents in The Binder (disclosure triangles set to display all documents), selected all text in The Editor at once, and selected the font I want from the font selection thing at the top of The Editor.
I use one font. A single font, only, for these manuscripts, and I want them to reflect whatever global font choice I make in 2024, even if I change my mind in 2023 to that very font, from a previous global font chosen in 2017.
After following the procedures as outlined above, the striking was removed, but the golden color was still there, even when I delete, retype and change the font colors. So I further troubleshoot and this worked?
Note: I'm posting this question again, with very slight modification, as the first time the issue didn't get resolved. The earlier question is found here: CSS: Disabling automatic rescaling of font-size on iPhone, but as I said it's almost identical; it has one answer that unfortunately didn't clarify much for me...]
Incidentally, I find it annoying because now I can't test properly on my iPhone, knowing that my website (i.e. font-size) is rendered differently on other mobile devices (and I don't fully trust online emulators).
I should say the first step is to seriously abuse anyone who would force a base font site-wide of 10px, because with ever higher and higher DPI displays that is just a cruel thing to inflict upon your users. But that's the visitors' solution. Yours as an author should be a bit different:
Safari 4 will zoom the whole page. By avoiding percentages of a base font in px, you avoid a Safari bug I can't get Apple to acknowledge whereby fonts NEVER zoom, even though every other part of the page does. This is likely the problem you're seeing.
Latest versions browsers like chrome, ffx are scaling page content (images, text, DOM Elements) proportionally but in the safari browser text is not scaling properly. It is a frustrating user expectation.It makes text content blurry
In a document that I've exported to a PDF, the font is randomly dropping off throughout the document. The only advice I can find that seems relevant is to adjust the below setting to 0% to embed the font, which I've done. I know that the fonts are embeddable.
All of the listed fonts used in my document have a restriction of 'normal'. From the information I've found, you can tell if a font is permitted to be embedded if the restrictions are 'normal', so that's what I've been working off. I'm a complete indesign newbie, so excuse my lack of knowledge.
Having read this thread, I suspect something other than font embedding is involved. Could you please post a copy of the resultant PDF file someplace for us to download and analyze? And maybe even a copy of a fragment of an InDesign document that shows the issue?
That having been said, there is transparency involved in this document and the blending of same is probably what is causing the issues you are seeing. I am looking at your PDF on a very high resolution screen and the text issues go away.
I noticed that the font size asked for and the font size created on a drawing are off. I adjusted all my font sizing to be bigger but wondered if this was a problem peculiar to me. As a test, I created some text is some other programs -
Generally, in page layout programs (and Vectorworks I believe), the size of a font is based upon the "Em square". An Em square is essentially a box for a character to sit within and is equal to the font's height, not a specific character's height. This provides a space for characters such as a capital M and a lowercase g to fit within a given space and line up correctly. It's all based on old school metal typesetting. See the attached file for an example of 4 different fonts, all set to the same size, with different behaviors in regards to character height and spacing.
This is interesting and something I didn't realize. I choose the font size in Word by what looks correct. I never actually measured it. I started off in Autocad years ago and the font size selected is the size of what prints out. Same thing for Revit and Archicad. I tried this again in Affinity and Word. Both times the text comes out at .375" high. there seems to be two standards here and Vectorworks has aligned itself to the publishing definition but Autocad, Revit and Archicad have used a different definition for what the size of a font should be. I prefer the Autocad definition but will adjust to Vectorwork's version.
Industries related to typesetting use what I described earlier. When the two paths cross, errors can and oftentimes occur. FYI, all of this is really important if you ever have to develop a sign package for exterior wayfinding or room identification on government projects. Always dimension your signage fonts and specify fonts if ever in doubt. It is can be disappointing if your design is not fabricated correctly due to this disparity between the industries. As you may have guessed, I have run into this issue a few times over the years.
Interestingly enough, some of the cities I submit plans to specify minimum font heights in points, as in 12 pt minimum text because they reference old microfiche archiving standards LOL. Most government projects use ISO to dictate things like minimum lettering heights. It's all kind of comical on a technical level since microfiche archiving and diazo reprographics are ancient history by technical standards. Even paper submittals are starting to go away.
On old versions of vw (before 2012 which I'm still on) this seemed to be a real problem. I did some testing to get to the bottom of it and it seemed at the time their was no validation so if you selected 12 pt you'd actually get a size that ranged from just about 12 to just below 13 (whatever random numbers were in the buffer at the time) . 2012 seems to be better, but being if I use a non-standard size I always put .0 just to make sure.
The 150KB limit means all text (fonts) must be outlined even if it were a simple matter of embedding custom fonts and changing out brand fonts for Google-hosted ones, just isn't an option when you're working with marketing collateral.
For more context, the job I'm working on now consists of 7 different concepts each with 5 different sizes ranging from wide banner to square to deep banner. Every time I create a new one I have to create an svg file from the text in almost every variation of text block that is possible. Up to eight frames of text animation per ad.
Whereas a font is the same element between the sizes, each svg file is a unique asset. File management nightmare.
I've seen the request for the ability to convert the font within Hype rather than using a third-party editor. But, I believe paramount to this, is the ability to keep an editable file for ongoing revisions, templates etc. AND still have the facility to export small file sizes and on-brand material.
I don't pretend to know how feasible/difficult this would be or if I'm even asking for the impossible.
I'm currently working with some people have been amazed by Hype based on their first impressions, but are scratching their heads about the workflows regarding type.
*Edit, what also would be amazing as supplement to this suggestion would be a 'smart font generator' Ofcourse this isn't intresting for Adwords, but it's very intresting for font optimization. Certain ad tools have functions to re-render .WOFF2 Fonts at export to render a new font of the used font to a font with only the characters used. In the times i've used this it decreases a single font weight from 30kb back to 2-3kb.
It is technically feasible but there are some cases where we're missing "easy" ways to get font shape data in some cases. I haven't looked at how hard the hard ways are yet. I'm guessing such a feature may have limitations. Also we've looked less from an optimization standpoint and more from the standpoint of being able to convert to a format the editor can work with.
I feel like it should have more animation features like lip-syncing, joints, and vector shape importing / exporting... and perhaps the option to choose Box2D or Matter.JS as the Physics engine. HA HA!
I'm not rushing Tumult to make Hype 5. In fact, if they said to me, "Hey Mike, Hype 5 is going to be awesome. It has Windows, iPad, and Linux support, but it's going to take another two years." Heh, then I'd be patiently waiting until 2023.
What does that mean exactly? This question is a bit off-topic, but just today I was thinking how Hype is so much easier to use than Final Cut Pro. That font problem is a good one though, as it is tedious to add a font to a Hype project.
There's still some corners of Hype that aren't as streamlined or easy to use as they could be; the flow of working with webfonts is definitely one of them. Sometimes these corners have particular tradeoffs where usability in advanced cases is sacrificed for usability in common cases, but this is not one of those!
Then, if this is set up as a Paragraph Style or Character Style or a mix of both, a possible override is also likely to make it look like you are using this font when the style may actually be set up to use another font. Clear overrides, break the link to style or try anything that could clear any possible overrides.
We have collected all the most important information about the Up Up And Away Regular font.
Below is a table about the font file version, license, copyright, designer and vendor name.
The information is taken from the "TTF" font file.
I have tried deleting and reinstalling my printer (Canon MX922 Series) numerous times, and also the print to PDF driver. Nothing changes. I have tried "Restore default font settings" to no avail...it just goes away somewhere and never returns, with no effect.
I hope someone can tell me what's going on here. This was a sudden onset, and I have not knowingly updated anything recently. I could also add that I have been able to print files using my wife's Apple MacBook with no such printing anomalies (same printer, also Wi-Fi connected).
