Font rendering is very bad compared to Internet Explorer

When you view Web pages, the rendering of fonts is bad (blur) compared to (for example) to Internet Explorer. This makes reading very tedious and tiring information. I have some screenshots to prove my point.

My machine is not new: its an IBM/Lenovo Think Pad Z61m. I am running XP with all updates and just updated all drivers etc for the machine.

Because I am running XP and I can't use a newer version of Internet Explorer 8 - 8 cannot handle everything on the net these days. I intend to switch to FireFox, but if this can not be repaired I will have to look into Chrome instead.

Changing the setting of ClearType standard fixed!

Thank you!!!

    Last week, we started having bad by opening internet explore.  First of all, we received a message problem with the iexplore.exe file.  We conducted some virus scans, fixed the registry, uninstalled and reinstalled IE and cannot always on it to open it.

    Now the message indicates that Windows cannot find iexplore.exe on drive C; Download Google chrome and get the same error message.  The only browser that works is Apple Safari.

    In addition, and cela I should have started with, do not use an admin account for everyday use.  If you are unsure if you are, you are probably.  If you simply turn your computer and it goes into Windows, you are. (This means that you had no logon).     This is true for everyone, all the time...  Make a user account when you first get your computer or after a reload.

  • Time not appearing does not, in MapViewer with Internet Explore (Reposted)

    (I posted this question once before, but I think he had a few problems caused by the div tag in the HTML code I included.) The div 'map' did not appear in the sent message and some other links on the page did not work, perhaps because of my rogue "div". I used markup codes in the hope that these problems don't exist this time. I apologize.)

    I use MapViewer 10133p 5 and having troubles placing times in Internet Explorer (IE code that seems to work in Firefox very well fail in Internet Explorer). I reduced my HTML to which, in my view, are the essential and pasted its contents below.

    In the Firefox browser, anywhere, anytime, I click on the card that I see an alert indicating the coordinates where I clicked, then a FAITH (with a picture on it) is placed on the card. Finally, I see another alert letting me know that the FAITH was placed. In IE7, I see alerts, but I never see FAITH. Finally, from what I can tell, the Server WebLogic which is at the service of the MapViewer app receives a request, whenever I have this in Firefox, but sees not a request come through when I do it in Internet Explorer.

    IE gives me no indication that something is wrong, and since the final warning (see below) goes off, I have to assume that the execution of the script is not a failure. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    This is a bug of oracle cards. The solution is to add the image as a marker faith separated.

    mapview.addFOI (markerFOI);

  • Explorer 8 is really bad compared to 6. It hangs very, very slow loading, if cela an inprovement, then you are in trouble!

    Explorer 8 is really bad compared to 6. It CRASHES constantly, is very slow loading. If cela an inprovement, then you're in trouble. The difficulty of this piece of garbage!

    Hello goodwrench70, welcome.

    Internet Explorer 8, the conditions are correct, will run at normal speed. If the browser is slow or if it crashes, it could be a number of possibilities.

    My suggestion would be to first try and launch IE8 in no add-on mode. This will allow us to see if maybe something 3 rd-party is causing the problem.

    1. click on START
    2. click on "programs".
    3. click on "Accessories".
    4. click on "system tools."
    5. click on 'Internet Explorer 8 (no add-on).

    If the browser still runs slowly or crashes, you can place the machine in a clean boot state.

    1. click on START
    2 type "msconfig" (without the quotes) and press enter
    3. go to the "Startup" tab and uncheck all the entries displayed
    4. click on 'Apply' at the bottom right
    5 restart your computer

    If the browser still runs slowly or crashes, you can try using a different browser to see if the problem is systemic, or just with Internet Explorer. Search "Web Browser" in your search engine. There are a number available there.

    If another browser to work properly, then I suggest to uninstall and reinstall Internet Explorer 8. After the reinstallation, I go to Windows Update and download all the updates that are available for IE8.

    Link reference for the manual uninstall IE8: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/957700

    Hope this helps,

    Thank you!

  • Site display problem and google fonts correctly in Internet Explorer?

    With the help of a number of muse sites hosted on our server of Interior work. However, sites and google fonts will not display correctly in Internet Explorer. They all work very well on the outside and are very well internally using Firefox or Chrome.

    Our Department IT said its a problem with our Internet Explorer settings on the server with its 'compatibility view' settings which are apparently down classified at lower versions of IE due to other internal software necessary. They sent me the following code to add in the HTML code:

    < meta http-equiv = "X-UA-Compatible" content = "IE = edge" >

    However, apparently tried once the code is sitting too low - their answer is:

    "The Muse puts this code too low in the order of the page so that it has the effect. This code should go at the top of the HTML code and I could not find a way to get Muse to put it there without manually changing the HTML myself. Unfortunately you must then edit each page to include this to have effect. »

  • Overview of very bad police on iPad retina (SE CC)

    Sorry everyone, I have a small problem: I created a page in 1024 x 768 with a font to 18pt and preview on iPad retina is very bad (great on iPad 1/2).

    I need to work on an application SE for all the iPad - what do I do? PDF article? Or what?

    NB: can I built one single App HD 2048 x 1536 edition?

    Also SE Creative Cloud Edition?

    I ask this question because I know that SE Creative Cloud Edition are minor features SE standard (ex: Analytics).

    Thank you!

    If get you an overview through the decorative Panel, it will create a folio hatched. Maybe that's the problem.

    I would suggest the creation of a folio, make sure that it is the 'PDF' format, and then add the article, then use "Folio Preview" from the Folio Builder Panel.

  • Very bad resolution in the menus (models)

    I have a number of movies shot with a Canon Vixia HF10 camcorder. The camera settings are on NTSC with cadence 60, AVCHD.

    In my iMac (OS X vers.10.7.3), I have tried everything first to change my films in iMovie, but as soon as I discovered that iMovie does not correctly the AVCHD format.

    With Adobe Premiere Elements, I could however manage excellently AVCHD format. But when I got to the final stage in creating a menu

    my movies (I used models of first menu) the menus were very bad poor resolutions. I could see this time to 'Preview' and on DVD.

    The actual movies have been great with a real resolution AVCHD on DVD.

    Why this happens to you menus? I have to burn my movies without the menus?

    When you preview your DVD menus, looking for a version of what your final release will look like very low resolution. The document is intended to test the navigation. The menus and video will look much nicer once the file is rendered and output as a DVD or BluRay.

  • Live opacity of fonts in Internet Explorer

    Just recently, I discovered how to use Opacity with CSS and while I get transparency where I want, IE does not display the fonts correctly.  Not even close!  Mozilla and Safari work fine, so no problem.  But for some reason any police resembles the old spelling, back in the days where the only font color was green this is especially noticeable on the 'C' in Contact.

    CSS:

    {#navBar}
    position: absolute;
    left: 3px;
    top: 362px;
    Width: 960px;
    height: 37px;

    Hello

    Sorry I could not help, the fix I found and you made was also for IE8 or IE8 in compatibility mode, but IE7 works sometimes with this fix, but not across all filters, (sorry, but all of them control in all browsers, is not something I saw, but I can just create a test page to find out).

    In any case this is what microsoft had to say about the bug in IE7-

    In order to ensure good legibility of text in Internet Explorer, in the Release Candidate version, we decided to disable ClearType on items that use any DXTransform.  We will text in elements as text with antialiasing, in order to increase readability.  The rest of the text on the page is rendered with ClearType.  This may explain why some sites (or parts of sites) will be aliased text, rather than ClearType.

    Unfortunately, they decide not to solve this problem in version IE7 or IE8 is released, I find it interesting that they say, it increases readability, if so why have cleartype at all?
