Some fonts are displayed wrong on Windows

A handful of fonts do not seem to be properly read or restore some sort of default.

Programs that are affected by this problem that I know are iTunes, install the pages, but also the popups of the Avast database update.
I have all the fonts are set to SegoeUI, although assigning a different font and reset of that back it doesn't seem to help.

  • Malformed HTML lang attributes affect the fonts are displayed

    I use Firefox on Windows 7 with the option 'Allow pages to choose their own fonts' unchecked.

    Since the update to v33 FF, I noticed that my choice of fonts is not met on some sites, for example, stackoverflow.com (in fact, all the stack Exchange sites) and duckduckgo.com. Instead the fonts are back to Times New Roman, MS Sans Serif and Courier New independently to know if I've specified these fonts as my serif or monospace default without in the FF options | menu content.

    After a lot of digging around, I have noticed that the problem seems to be related to non-standard lang attributes in a HTML pages. For example stackoverflow.com has < body lang = "" > and duckduckgo.com a lang = "en_US." If I manually change the HTML lang = "en" or lang = 'en-US', then FF uses my choice of fonts properly.

    I don't know enough about the HTML standard to say if these sites send me bad HTML, but FF started certainly treat less gracefully.

    NB I can reproduce this behavior on OS X 10.10 (FF v33) and Fedora 20 (v32.0.2 FF).

    Hmm, interesting. So what I see is as follows:

    In Options > content > advanced, I put these Serif fonts:

    • Western character set: Times New Roman
    • Character set other languages: Book Antiqua

    On this site and Google, who both are UTF - 8 encoded with lang = "fr" lang = "en - us" Western serif police is or.

    On both sites you have identified, which are coded with attribute lang unrecognizable UTF-8, the wheelbase of Other Languages values is used.

    So, it sounds as if affecting other languages fonts to your fonts should work around the problem.

    Success?

  • I downloaded the latest version of Firefox 13 and all Web pages are displayed wrong

    I downloaded the latest version of Firefox 13 after having quickly that I didn't have the latest version of Firefox. No Web page seems correct, including this one. All Web pages are displayed "plain." For example when I type in retail right now it takes a box or something to show me where to put space details - no box - only. I use Google as my home page. The Firefox logo was on the Google home page, but it is absent. When I go to Google Mail there is no checkboxes delete mail etc... when I go to the same pages using Internet Explorer pages display correctly if something's not on Firefox. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox without deleting my personal settings etc, but this made no difference. If my only option is to delete all my info I should do, but have been on Firefox and really don't want to lose this info. I checked all the settings when I looked not all Web pages display correctly in HELP and all settings are correct. What should I do? I don't want to go back to using IE, but that's basically what I have to do right now to the function to make banking operations etc...

  • Why some images are displayed as small rectangles with numbers?

    When I visit some sites, some of the images make under small rectangles with letters and numbers on the inside. This issue seems to be with Firefox (see motogp.com_FireFox.jpg, attached), rather than the site because the site displays properly when I get another browser, such as SeaMonkey (see motogp.com_SeaMonkey.jpg,) attached.

    The website, motogp.com is one I visit frequently; It happens on this site. See 2 pictures attached for an example of this problem.

    The box identifies a character not in the police who are using Firefox. This happens usually when a site has changed use images for its icons to use characters in a custom font, you need to download. There are three common reasons for the glitch:

    (1) uncheck the box 'Allow pages to choose their own fonts' here:

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > content > button "Advanced".

    If the pages are not allowed to specify their own fonts, Firefox uses the specified here, police who normally does not have the required pictures.

    (2) disabling fonts download. To check that:

    (A) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (B) in the search above the list box, type or paste gfx and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (C) If gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled preference is bold and user, set false, double-click it to restore the default value true

    (3) extension of block the download. NoScript has a feature to block the downloadable fonts, for example.

  • Chinese and Japanese characters are displayed incorrectly in Windows 8.

    All Chinese and Japanese characters SOMETIMES appear as squares. He sometimes corrected after I rebooted the system.

    I already changed the language of non-unicode as a Chinese (simplified, China) in the region > administrative.
    The display for my operating system language is English.
    I heard people say that it will work if I change my Format and location of Chinese/China. I don't want to do that because then my time format is displayed also as Chinese.
    These combinations of setting working in Win 7.
    Original title: display of Japanese and Chinese characters as squares

    not sure on the display of Chinese and Japanese, but for just Japanese I found that switching language for non-unicode in Japanese once then back to English (for occasional applications that are not displayed good language) works to display Japanese characters correctly in windows Explorer

  • Problems with Windows Update! ("some settings are managed by your system administrator"?)

    I seem to have problems with my windows update. Last week when I checked to see if updates were needed that I was unable to view them because he said that "some settings are managed by your system administrator" who won't let me change the settings and the display of updates. It's my own personal computer so I am the administrator. However, this week update windows begins to function normally because there was an update available and I managed to download it, but a few days later, the windows on the screen update returned to say that "some settings are managed by your system administrator. I did a scan for spyware/adware/virus recently and I had only a low risk of adware that was detected and deleted without modification with windows update. This problem started right after that I got a warranty of software installed by Dell, I don't know if what they did could cause the problem. The system I use is Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
