Illustrator :: Typing Of Accented Characters Changes Font?
Jun 12, 2013
I'm using Illustrator CS6 on a Mountain Lion Mac. Got a weird problem with one of my fonts. I'm used to type accented characters like é by typing option-e plus e. Which works so far. On one of my fonts however, EuroComic, when I want to type the é character and start with option-e, it already changes the font to Myriad Pro. Typing the e after that makes it é, but in Myriad Pro, not EuroComic. It has always worked before when I was still using Snow Leopard. And it's not a font problem I think, cause in Indesign that same way of using option-e plus e works. The é is at the correct spot in EuroComic cause when I select all text and change it to EuroComic (after having typed that é), not only does all text turn into EuroComic again, but also that now Myriad Pro é turns back to EuroComic é. What could it be that could make illustrator turn the font to Myriad Pro after typing option-e on that parcitular font? With other fonts like Arial etc.

I have Photoshop CS and when I try to use the text tool, it does not print out characters but straight lines. So if I type A it is reproduced on the screen as ---- and if I type B it is reproduced as --- and so on.

Let's say I create a poster with a couple of blocks of text in Illustrator, using a single font. Then, I generate a PDF of the poster.
Now, on the same computer, I open the PDF in Illustrator, and Illustrator pops-up an alert saying some text has been outlined to preserve appearance. And, indeed, here and there throughout the text, some words, combination of words, or whole lines of text have been outlined, but most of the text is still live.
Why does this happen? There's no difference, font-wise, between the text that is untouched, and the text that got outlined. Same face, same weight. In fact, the same word, set the same way, will be untouched in one line, and be outlined elsewhere in the text. It's really baffling.

Photoshop (any version) has historically had an issue with typing speeds. If you type too fast, double letters will come out as single letters. The previous line would've looked like this: "If you type to fast, double leters wil come out as single leters"
This mainly happens when typing fast, and any of these conditions are met:
- the file is big
- you haven't restarted photoshop in a while
- you've been doing some work (lots of history states)
Basically, as soon as the memory fills up, Photoshop's responsiveness becomes pretty poor when you're typing.I don't expect a solution for this, other than a patch/update, since this is an issue on any machine with any (performance) settings.

The cursor, when typing or editing text is not in the correct position. If I begin typing, it stays a the first column, instead of progressing with the typing. I am unable to insert spaces at the beginning of a line. Sometimes the cursor will appear at the end of a line, but be inserting characters at the beginning of the line.

When typing text, the text is blurry and broken up and very hard to see what's going on. But as soon as I accept, or hit return then it's clear as a bell.

I have some Japanese fonts installed on my cpu and I was trying to use them in PhotoShop (PS) but they don't show up as the Japanese (and other) characters. In photoshop CS2 in the font selection drop down menu you know it gives you a preview of that font using the word "Sample" for that particular font. For example if you were to look at Arial to the right of it the word "Sample" will be demostrated in the Arial font. (yeah that was confusing to type) Well in that dropdown menu it displays in the Japanese characters. However, when I select that font to begin typing it uses normal alphanumeric characters. When i previewed the font in the windows font viewer it is also displays as normal alphanumeric characters.
Example fonts: MS Gothic, MingLIU,SimSun.
I believe all of these are True Type Fonts

I'm experiencing a very bizarre problem in CS with a font special character. I used Extensis Suitcase to examine all the font characters for a particular font that I'm using on a project. The character mapping shows the key combination for the character I want is (on a Mac) Option/Alt + Z.
This works in every other application on my computer, including my email application, but for some reason, within CS it brings up the Omega character. Any idea why this happens and how I change it? I even tried to type the character in Word and cut and paste it into Photoshop and it changes! What gives?

I see numerous redundant copies of every font family style listed when I select a font family STYLE of any typeface, such as Helvetica or Arial, for example.
Throughout the day the list increases copies of each style exponentially by the hour. At the end of the day I am scrolling through 98 copies of Helvetica Bold to get to the next style, like Black. There should only be one Helv. Bold, one Black, one Condensed, and so on.
My fonts are cleaned and organized frequently with any corrupted fonts being removed immediately. I use FontExplorer X, Font Doctor and other type apps to manage fonts because FontBook is still retarded.

I have 3DS Max 2009 and I am trying to type text in splines with accents (e.g. Àà, Ââ, Ææ, Éé, Èè, Êê, Ëë, Ùù, Ûû, Üü) but max converts them to regular letters (Aa, Ee, Uu). It easily understands russian letters, but not these ones.

I want to create a table with all characters inside a font.I used "%%" to change a number to it's character.but "%%" limited to 999 and for numbers bigger than 999 it doesn't work.
also, CHR command limited to 255 and for numbers bigger than 255 it change to (number-255). so I used "%%" to create this table:[Please change default font in your AutoCAD to ARIAL]
(Defun c:charmap ()
(setvar "cmdecho" 0)
(setq cnt 1.0)
(setq r_cnt 0.0)
(setq ts 32)
(setq x 0.0)
(setq y 0.0)
[code]...
I want to know:
1- what can I do for numbers more than 999?
2- How can I know the number of characters inside a font?
3-how can improve my LISP program to have complete characters inside the fonts?

I used to enter decimals with the dot key. On my new environment (new computer, new version of Illustrator), it no longer works. I would like to use the comma key instead. What may be the way to enable it? Some editing on Window's international options?

There must be a faster way to updated the current, custom workspace, without having to choose "Save Workspace" and retyping the same name! I constantly tweek my workspace and do not want to save multiple versions, I just want to update the current space.
I'd like to simply hold "option" as I select the current workspace name and have AI update that workspace with my current setup.

According to the tool pallet instructions, I should be able to draw a circle of specific diameter by typing in the "width" dimension, then, according to Illustrator: "you can click on the word Height to copy that value into the Height box." Doesn't work. I've trashed the AI prefs, clicked on the word and on the field, and this simply doesn't work. I assume that I or my system is at fault.

When I enter a value, such as 2.2, as the height in the Transform box, AI automatically changes the value (to 2.1944, in this case). Is there any way to fix this?
(I have deslected "Align New Objects to Pixel Grid" and have deleted the AIPrefs file. I am working with AI CC and Windows 7.)

After opening a file from another designer, this Chinese font has taken over my "omens – regular" font file. Anytime I use it, it converts to this font and each time I need to change a font weight, I must do it manually. As you can imagine, I use our company font all day so this slows me down quite a bit. Have you heard of this? It seems like some sort of font virus. I've researched removing it, yet can't seem to find the original font file to get rid of, which is even weirder."
We tried moving the font family to the trash, emptying the trash, rebooting the machine, and re-adding the font family and it still is happening.

Is there a way to specify a given system font that should be substituted for a given missing font? For example, the document I'm working with contains CourierStd and CourierStd-Bold which are not installed on my system. I would like to set Illustrator so that any time a document that contains these fonts is opened, Courier New and Courier New Bold are substituted automatically.

I am working on a logo which has the word "E-Commerce" in it. I am using a font that works quite well for it but the dash is way too long, it's in fact longer than an m dash and the font doesn't have anything else.
Short of modifying the font file or turning it into outlines, is there a way I can just make that one character shorter? I seem to remember that in earlier versions of Illustrator you could set the font width but all I can see in the character pane in CS6 is kerning and tracking. I don't want to use the transform tool because it would stretch all the text inside the box.

So I want to type in a column, so I went to type > type orientation. However, Each character is vertical. I want to type two characters on a line, then break to the next 'line', as I'm working on a calendar piece and I want all numbers to be aligned straight up and down.

I am exporting a table - save from Excel to PDF. Open in AI and export to EMF. The word 'Difficult' in one column comes out 'Dif cult' in every occurance. It worked with a different table one time last week but now happens with every table I attempt to export. I even went to an extra step of saving the PDF to AI and then exporting to EMF. Same results.
