(SOLVED) I don't know if this is the right place of this is allowed here, if it's not I'm sorry.
I am trying to get STBTrueType to load the font information just like in the demos but for some reason, it doesn't work. My problem is that the stbtt_InitFont always fails. I have tried different fonts and different ways of loading the font file but nothing worked, even when I removed all the other code to just load this file and try to initialise the data. Am I forgetting something?

Can anyone tell me how to find out what the restrictions of fonts are in my font info. The tab font info in my font book is not working for most fonts (it was before I upgraded to Mavericks), and when I right-click to find the font info in finder it just gives basic information for a lot of fonts (for example Futura). Thanks.

Ah, I see, thanks Jeff, that solved the font book issue. But still the info does not give me enough information, unfortunately. This is a problem specifically for the fonts provided with OSX. In the license Apple redirects to the embedding restrictions in the info, but it's not there for most fonts.

The device ref has a lot of info, but I'd also like to know which devices uses glances. And if so, what size it is. Maybe the first can be derived from the API level?? And the latter from the display size maybe??

See this thread for more info, including a simple widget with glances. It's a bit old and doesn't have anything for type checking, so you may want to turn off type checking for the app when trying it.

If you build a widget for a device which may or may not have glances enabled, then you may wish for the glance view to display the same or similar "summary information" as the initial view with glances disabled. e.g. A steps widget may display the total number of steps for the day for the summary information.

Using an example image from a site, image attached below. I'd like the file name portion (1st row) of the Loupe Info Overlay to be at least as small as the rest of the text. What I've done is just keep that section empty but I'm extra losing image info I'd like to have and want less overlap onto the main image. I generally wouldn't mind if that whole section had even smaller text.

An extension to show/inspect text fonts in webpages.NOTE: On first installation, reload the already opened tabs if it's not working. On chrome web store pages it's not working or is blocked by them.Show in page the following informations:* font size;* font weight;* font main family;* font style;* font color;* line height;* font decoration;* font transformation;* letter spacing;Switch between hex and rgb colors from the dedicated option page or the popup!Right-click contextual menu!An option to hide contextual menu!An option to show on mouse-over all the infos on the font or single info.For any problem or bug open a ticket on the support tab, i will answer as soon as possible.====Possible problem====On first installation, RELOAD the already opened tabs if it's not working.On chrome web store pages it's not working or is blocked for some reason.Case not on hover: * If text is inside nested overflow:hidden element the popup will be hidden * If your element have some overflow this pugin will override them with overflow:visible than it will revert them when turn off. * If there are async element you should re-launch.====Change Log==== * 5.0.0 : move to manifesto v.3 and code related to v.3, add switch between rgb and hex colors * 4.0.0 : review graphics, removed contextual menu "showAlways", now on click the popup will appear, and add option page to toggle contextual * 3.0.0 : Restyle and code refactoring, add some other option and right-click menu single info * 2.0.0 : Add right-click contextual menu that will show all fonts info on mouse hover, add option to prevent click to the left-click, clicking a text save the info on a right panel if "select on click" is enabled, add letter spacing to the list

Style linking establishes Bold/Italic relationships between multiple fonts. Apps use this info to bring up the right font when you press Cmd-B or Cmd-Shift-B (in InDesign) for accessing the Bold font, and Cmd-I or Cmd-Shift-I (InDesign) for accessing the Italic. In short, every Italic should be established as the Italic of its upright counterpart, while the Bold and Bold Italic fonts should be the Bold or Bold and Italic of the normal/regular style. Use the attributes both Bold and Bold & Italic only once.

Surprised I didn't find this already discussed... Which font do you guys recommend assuming you want to fit a lot of info horizontally? I use a lot of metadata columns. I want something like the default Traktor font which is nice and BOLD - except it's too wide. Need something bold but narrow.

If I use info inside emacs and enable variable-pitch-mode, all text is displayed in proportional fonts, but the text width is all wrong, because info-mode laid out the text assuming fixed-width characters and a window width of something like 70 characters. The same thing happens in help buffers as well.

You can't. A proper text layout for proportional fonts would require dynamic re-filling of paragraphs, which is generally impossible to do correctly with info documents, since they contain no semantic information at all. Same for docstrings, which you see in Help Mode, except that these don't even start with any markup at all...
