Suddenly strange characters French appearing instead of what the keyboard shows
I have a brand new 520-1050 HP cleaner with a wireless keyboard. I have the language set on Canadian English (and I double checked that by checking via the control panel). There is a button on the keyboard (2nd from the bottom line to the left) that says Fn which I assume has something to do with the French. I hit a combination of keys on the keyboard and now I get characters that are different from what appears on the keyboard. For example, instead of getting an exclamation mark when I hit this key, I get this: e. or this e depending on whether or not I hit the SHIFT key. How do I cancel what I have unwittingly given
Hello MarmMM:
Welcome to HP forum. Language of the Canada uses the English and the French. GoTo your control panel and top-right you see BY. Change it to veiw large icons. Now search for region and language, click on it. It should open the screen Formats. Now click on keyboard and languages (tab at the top) you will see choose a display language. It is at the bottom one if it is written in French. Select the language you want to use. If you want to check your keyboard state. Click on change keyboard and switch to the right language settings if changes were made there also. Please click on Bravo if this solves your problem. Thank you frrw.

Windows Help explains how to use the character map to copy or drag special characters in Unicode-aware applications. In Vista, it was possible (but heavy) to insert special characters using the keyboard with the method known as Alt-plus, which has only first need to add EnableHexNumpad to the registry *.
y at - it an easier way to insert Unicode characters using only the keyboard newly available in Windows 7? Adds EnableHexNumpad to the still of registry required to use the Alt-Plus mode? Other tips to quickly characters insert Unicode in taking applications support Unicode?
* Register instructions: Add a new string [REG_SZ] named EnableHexNumpad and a value of 1 in HKEY_Current_User/Control Panel/Input Method
Have you tried UnicodeInput? It is a small program that allows you to enter Windows Unicode characters via the keyboard. Works with practically all the applications that I tested. I use it on Vista, so I can't guarantee it will work also on 7...

The text below appears whenever I open a box of text on page or a picture in my book. It seems that it is Latin, but I think it's nonsense. I can't delete it
because when I right click to select for deletion he disappears but then returned when I resize the page. Does anyone know what might
be the cause; It's extremely annoying? I'm sure that's buried somewhere.

Hello I am downloading from my site and my characters are messy. I type an e (taken glyphs-window), but what appears is an and the copyright sign? can someone tell me how I get rid off this?
I tried a lot of things, but nothing seems to make a difference.
In my view, they have already done for you...
The site seems OK now. Hooray !
But let's dig down to the serious things of this.
If the browser needs a statement of character. Probably ' UTF-8 ', but another or an older one would be as well, as long as it's cheap, and it respects the method of characterization of the Web page.
This statement can be provided by (1) the web server itself (its default value), (2) the htaccess file in your web root directory server, or (3) on each web page. Where there are several and contradictory statements perhaps, the older in the command above rules. But in the case where the Server and the htaccess do not provide a statement of character and your web page later on, it shouldn't be a problem.
Your provider said that they do not have a such context in their web server, and it wasn't a htaccess file in your root folder (Muse is not create it for you). Once again: do not worry, it should always be no problem, because all your web pages provides the declaration as well (thanks to Muse). We have checked that, no doubt.
That is where their claim is not accurate. BTW: many tips are on the Internet on the common practice in this area and they all advice that the htaccess is not the place more obvious to the declaration. The page is the best place to put it.
W3C (the 'boss' of http and html)
some general information:
Choosing & applying a character encoding
putting in a .htaccess file:
Definition of charset in .htaccess information
and finally, put on the page:
Declaring character encodings in HTML
But what is even more strange: I checked the web server of your provider to access this service online, and it seems that their server is to provide a framework (and it is UTF-8, fortunately). It's the opposite of what they have been say...
Now I have the idea of some personal provider noticed this morning that their server wasn't working properly (maybe after a failure of server or another incident or failure), serving the pages with a wrong setting. Then maybe they quickly corrected, and not to let you know that, they tell you to put in place this htaccess file (which makes no difference, just as the declaration of your page also could not prevail in the setting of the server).
So now, you are done with all the three statements: a parameter, a htaccess in your Web site folder and that of your server page. As long as they all say and expect the same (UTF-8) you don't have to worry about this.
Problem solved, three times!
PS: many accommodation providers (and I'm afraid that yours as well) tend to declaring that whatever they do is 'standard' and 'obvious'. While in many situations, it's always a little different and certainly not the standard, not to mention obvious...

See strange characters instead of underscores?
I have a client who see strange characters in this pdf seen online but not when downloaded on your PC:
http://butlerwindowcleaning.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/DamageWaiver2011.PDF
He sees:
Agreed and signed this RI FARZAD BBB BBBBGD\
"Accepted and signed this _ door."
and
6LJQDWXUH instead of "Signature of the customer" customer signature
He says he has the last drive. I'm trying to understand what could happen. I wonder if it's because the optimized pdf could have referenced fonts instead of embedded fonts?
Thanks in advance,

Make sure that you run not Firefox mode full screen (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Ctrl + Shift + F).
If you are in full screen view then hover over with the mouse upward to make the bar appear Navigation and tab bar.
You can click the maximize button in the upper right to leave the mode full screen or empty space of a right-click on a toolbar and use "exit full screen" or press F11.
