Problem with fonts. If enable hardware acceleration "BOLD" fonts look weird, but if I turn it off, "BOLD" fonts seem good, but normal fonts look weird

Title.

With hardware acceleration: http://imgur.com/jHRk6Yl words 'empty' look and really weird air instead of being "BOLD". But if I disable it, normal fonts look "weird" in some Web sites (not all) and are difficult to read.
Any solution?

Thank you!

Hmm, another user Windows 10 reported this after installing some Helvetica fonts.

In your screenshot, the text 'blue indicated' is the following style rule:

font-family: "helvetica neue",arial,helvetica,sans-serif;

So I guess you have Helvetica Neue installed locally, which seems to have strange problems in Firefox.

If you don't want to remove this font on your system, you can use custom style rules for Firefox overrides Arial, which is what I see on Windows 7 on this page. I saw the first time that documented in this article (from 2010!):

  • How to enable hardware acceleration in FireFox 31

    Please tell us how to enable hardware acceleration in FireFox 31. All of my graphics and other hardware/software is current and up to date. I also paired to my toolbar to bookmark up to 20 entries less.

    FireFox is so slow that a few tabs open cause the 'wheel of doom' suspension whenever I try to enter information or go to another part of the Web site. Sometimes, the breaks are 5 to 10 seconds, sometimes a minute or more.

    I don't have this problem on other browsers I use.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hey, what helped was reset Firefox functionality. I found the idea on this thread of Mozilla: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1003863

  • Want to Phoenix 860-010: problem with fonts and the noisy fan

    I have a new machine, just a day old, and I'm having a problem with fonts.  The file Explorer, Edge and other similar programs seem to go from a very readable font that lights up in half a second or less whenever I move down on the page in these applications.  Police that results is much more difficult for me to read because of the lightness that results. I have not met this problem before.  Frankly, I don't know the source of the problem.  Is it hardware (video card) or (Windows 10) operating system software?

  • How to enable hardware acceleration in an Adobe AIR application

    Hello

    As the author of this post How to enable hardware acceleration in an air exe? , I try to activate hardware acceleration inside my AIR application

    If the user has disabled hardware acceleration in the sound settings flash drive, context3d.driverInfo will say "Hw_disabled = userDisabled".

    The only way to re-enable is to open Internet Explorer or Firefox and right-click on a flash content, then check "enable hardware acceleration".

    I (we) would like to be able to reactivate directly inside the AIR application (via actionscript code) and not tell the user to open a browser and check some random boxes (cause you know that it is not very easy to use...)

    A bug has been opened here Bug #3843535 - disable hardware in IE plugin flash acceleration turns off in AIR EXEs and is marked as fixed but nothing is fixed: there is still no way to enable hardware acceleration in a desktop AIR application

    Update your video card drivers. Bring:

    1. site of the device mftr. ; OR
    2. site of the card mother mftr. If the material is on board; OR
    3. website of the OEM manufacturer for your specific machine if you have a PC OEM (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

    Read the installation instructions on the Web site where you get the drivers.

    To find out what hardware is in your computer:

    1. read all documentation that you got when you purchased the computer.
    2. If the computer is OEM, access the site Web of the OEM for your specific model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers anyway)
    3. download, install and run a program of inventory of the free system like Belarc Advisor or System Information for Windows.

  • Big problems with fonts after upgrade to Yosemite

    Hello

    I upgraded my macbook pro to Yosemite for more than six months and since then, I have serious problems with application of fonts in browsers and many software I use. I googled the problem over and over again and nothing seems to help.

    In general, these are the main symptoms of the problem with screenshots:

    1 system ads are gibberished, or better yet, appearing with something like that, instead of letters:

    2. bold letters does not at all (when I use gmail, for example) or leads to an illegible font change:

    3. hyperlinks symbols on Web sites or webmail applications simply appear as empty squares and there is no way of knowing what you click on.

    Bottom line: before turning to the last option and the resettlement of Yosemite, if someone could help, I'd be more than grateful.

    You probably have a lot of fonts installed garbage. Follow these steps to recover your Mac for only the fonts installed in OS X.

    (1) open the book fonts and choose restore fonts Standard menu. All third-party fonts will be moved out of the system and root of the fonts in the library files in a new folder next to each named (deleted) Fonts.

    2) click on the desktop so Finder is the name of the app next to the Apple logo in the upper left corner. Hold down the Option key and choose go > library. This will open your user account's library folder. Create a new empty folder on the desktop. Open the folder fonts in your user account. If there is something in it, move them to the new folder on the desktop.

    3) restart in Mode safe mode by rebooting and hold down the SHIFT key. When you reach the office (you need to log in Mode without failure), restart normally. Among other things, this erases all the cache files on the account of the user logged in Mode safe mode and resets the database of book of fonts for this account.

    (4) clear all remaining the system font cache files. Close all the running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal application and enter the following command. You can also copy and paste from here in the Terminal window:

    sudo atsutil databases - remove

    Terminal will then ask your admin password. When you type, it will not show anything, so make sure you enter it correctly.

    This command removes all the font cache files. To the system and the current connected to the user account. After you run the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

    Now test. With only fonts available provided OS and all data policies implemented cache and other such parameters cleared and reset, fonts should appear correctly in the system.

  • Problem with fonts

    This isn't really a problem with Illustrator, but any help would be appreciated.

    Suddenly and for no apparent reason a bunch of fonts disappeared from my menu fonts.

    I use Linotype FontExplorer X to organize my fonts. I see here and many of them are enabled, but for some reason, "not available".

    I tried but in vain even re-import them.

    Any ideas anyone?

    Steve,

    Had you been with CC (2014), I should have suggested 4) or 6) on the list immediately. but now, I hesitated.

    If illy is the only one unable to use these, I'm afraid it's his problem. Then maybe the list is justified after all (point 11) 5) is questionable, but (also) might be relevant).

    You've seen before (too often), but it's here. If you have been careless enough to go with Yosemite, 6) is almost inevitable, of course.

    The following is a general list of things, try when the question is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by problems with opening a file from external media. You tried/made some of them already; 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically preferences might be corrupt); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

    If possible / there is, you must record a current work first, of course.

    (1) close Illy and open again.

    (2) restart the computer (you can make up at least 5 times);

    (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

    4) move the folder (follow the link with this name) with closed Illy (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you can find the file here:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Illustrator/KB/preference-file-location-Illustrator.html

    5 look through and try the relevant among the other options (click on the link with that name, item 7) is a list of the usual suspects among other applications which can disturb and confuse Illy, point 15) applies to the maybe CS5, CS6 and CC);

    Even worse, you can:

    (6) (check the box to delete the preferences), run the cleanup tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC) to uninstall and reinstall.

  • Problems with fonts in InDesign CS3 in Snow Leopard

    Has anyone else had problems with the font book and InDesign CS3?

    Just had some new Mac Mini running Snow Leopard against Migration Assistant an old Mini. Initially, every thing seems to be great. But on the opening of the ads in Indd CS3 I noticed that fonts disappeared, even if they have been enabled in the font book.

    Then I reinstalled the necessary fonts and we don't use iLife and iTools products, I traded the Helvetica TrueType for the version of Adobe.

    It does not work...

    So, I have rebuilt the Mac fonts installed, once again, a CD original and installed InDesign CS3 clean (orig DVD)...

    Yet once again, did not work.

    Now, I know I can put fonts required in the folder Fonts in InDesign, or store them in ~/Library/Fonts, but since we have a library of 3000 + policies that manage our users with the font book, it will become unworkable.

    Anyone could launch a patch or fix this, another way...?

    There is a Snow Leopard update, you will need to search in preferences/software update system after the upgrade. After the reboot, this problem has been elminated for me, fortunately!

  • Problems with fonts in outline or draft publication (Captivate 4)

    I still have problems with the fonts in my projects.

    Standard, I use only Verdana 11 pt and pt 10 in my slides. This standard/consistency is quite obvious, when I'm viewing the slides in edit mode. However, when I preview or publish the project, the text of the slide in the slide is not consistent.

    It seems that through some slides display slightly crushed Vendana... it is clearly Vendana just reduced in height. I tried various options, such as the definition of the quality mode, and so far, nothing has helped.

    Please see the attachment, which should better illustrate what I describe. Each of five 100% cropped screenshots come from separate slides and I have grouped into a jpg.

    Any ideas?

    Hi Shawn

    It's strange. I say this because to my knowledge, the smoothing applies ONLY to transparent captions. All other legends are not smoothed.

    Out of curiosity, when you tested, have you tried each way? The setting is enabled as well as people with reduced mobility? I do suppose that it is possible that a bug exists whereby the global setting could be ignored. If so, it would be the first I've heard of him. (not that I come remotely close to being Omniscient 'end all' of Captivate trivia - LOL)

  • How to enable hardware acceleration to play solitare?

    Original title: hardware issues

    When I try to play solitaire. He told me to turn on my hardware acceleration. How can I do this?

    You must ensure that the graphics card is at the height.

    I suspect that you have upgraded to Windows 7, so what you have to do now is obtained from the computer manufacturer site and download and install Windows 7 drivers for your graphics card, or, in the case of a desktop computer, go the manufacturer of graphics card and get the drivers for Windows 7.

    If it is not all, you will have to put up with what you have, or go back to the last known good operating system, or update your computer...

    Hello

    I hope one of you whistle may be able to help me.

    I have a Blackberry Bold 9780, I use v.6.0.0.294 on o2 to the United Kingdom.

    Last month, I noticed problems. I can't tell you what icons disappeared first, but certainly Blackberry App World was among the first to disappear, my phone lock has now gone although I can search it and its actually hidden, it will not display...

    App world Blackberry does exist at all on my "BOLD" and even when I downloaded it again, it will not appear.

    (not sure if there are other icons missing these are the only 2 that so far, I've noticed)

    He said: I'm running the latest version of the software, so I don't understand what is happening.

    I rebooted several times, no luck.

    I've been in the Blackberry menu and looked for a way to display my lock icon and it won't.
