Hi Tammy,

Text regular font. 

Now, after checking the font info, it is clearly a mistake in the font
definition. Although the style name is Regular, the font weight is set
to medium.

 All, 
 
 I am having a doozy of a time with fonts in Framemaker and I am hoping that 
 if I provide a detailed description of the problem, someone can point me in 
 the right direction. This SHOULD be Fonts 101, but I give. Here is the 
 summary: 
 
 · I have purchased four fonts directly from the font maker. The fonts are 
 Breuer Text Regular, Breuer Text Regular Italic, Breuer Text Bold, and Breuer 
 Text Bold Italic. 
 
 · There are other fonts in this family with Medium in their names, such as 
 Breuer Text Regular Medium, Breuer Text Medium Italic, etc. 
 
 · There are 8 font styles in all in this family, and they are style-linked 
 
 · I have purchased and installed only the four fonts that I listed in my 
 first bullet. I have not ever installed any of the Medium fonts or any of the 
 other fonts, so style-linking should not be an issue. 
 
 · After installing these four fonts, I see this in my C:WindowsFonts 
 directory - Medium, Medium Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic. Note that the 
 Regular fonts are actually being renamed automatically to Medium upon 
 installation. I did not do this manually. 
 
 · When I open the top level Breuer Text font folder, I see four individual 
 detailed font folders - one named Medium, one named Medium Italic, one named 
 Bold and one named Bold Italic. 
 
 · If I open either of the Medium folders, the file name in the title bar 
 still reads as BreuerText-Regular. otf or BreuerTextItalic-Regular. 
 
 · When I create a paragraph tag in FM named BodyItalic, I select Breuer Text 
 as the Font Family, and then for the angle, I select Italic, which should 
 just switch the Regular font with the Regular Italic font, but boom. . . the 
 weight is also set to Bold immediately. For the weight characteristic, there 
 is a Regular option, so I try to select that and click Update All, but the 
 angle is immediately reset to Bold and I cannot change it. Anytime I try to 
 set the angle for any paragraph tag that uses the Breuer text to Italic, FM 
 automatically sets the weight to Bold as well. 
 
 · I opened a Word doc., typed in some text in Breuer text, and then manually 
 applied the Italic character. In Word, the text is only italicized. It is NOT 
 bolded. I have to manually apply the Bold in Word. 
 
 · If I use just Regular Breuer text in FM, and don't screw with the angle, 
 the weight remains Regular. It does not get bolded. 
 
 I have tried rebooting, clearing my font cache, rebooting again and I still 
 this issue in Framemaker with this danged Breuer text. I tried uninstalling 
 the Breuer text, clearing my font cache, reinstalling and still the same 
 issue. The Regular text gets loaded and installed with Medium in the name 
 in the Fonts directory and in FM., anytime I try to italicize a paragraph 
 tag, it gets bolded as well. 
 
 This is really screwing up my docs., obviously, as I don't want all 
 italicized text to be bolded. 
 
 Any and all advice is sincerely appreciated.

RE: Font issue in Framemaker 10, Windows 7, 64-bit

2014-01-29 Thread Davis, David
It sounds very much to me like the font vendor is a bit clueless and has 
something set wrong on the software he's using to make the font.

The fact that  that he never had encountered this problem before does not 
affect your statutory consumer rights, as they say.

2014-01-28 Thread Tammy Van Boening
All,

 

I had several awesome offlist responses and in a nutshell, armed with this 
information, I called the Font maker/vendor and walked him through the changes 
that I needed and he willingly made the changes to the font files for the files 
to work in applications that rely on a Windows OS for enumeration, etc. He said 
that he never knew of these requirements for these fonts so he was very willing 
to make the changes and learn new stuff.

 

All is good in  my little font world now.

 

Again, thank you for all the help. The contributors to this list rock.

definition. Although the style name is Regular, the font weight is set to 
medium.

If this is a problem, you should contact your font dealer or the maker of the 
font. Of course the setting could be modified with a font program, but this 
would be against license agreements, I guess.

All,

I am having a doozy of a time with fonts in Framemaker and I am hoping that if 
I provide a detailed description of the problem, someone can point me in the 
right direction. This SHOULD be Fonts 101, but I give. Here is the summary:

·   I have purchased four fonts directly from the font maker. The fonts are 
Breuer Text Regular, Breuer Text Regular Italic, Breuer Text Bold, and Breuer 
Text Bold Italic.  

·   There are other fonts in this family with Medium in their names, such 
as Breuer Text Regular Medium, Breuer Text Medium Italic, etc.  

·   There are 8 font styles in all in this family, and they are style-linked

·   I have purchased and installed only the four fonts that I listed in my 
first bullet. I have not ever installed any of the Medium fonts or any of the 
other fonts, so style-linking should not be an issue.

·   After installing these four fonts, I see this in my C:\Windows\Fonts 
directory - Medium, Medium Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic. Note that the Regular 
fonts are actually being renamed automatically to Medium upon installation. I 
did not do this manually. 

·   When I open the top level Breuer Text font folder, I see four 
individual detailed font folders - one named Medium, one named Medium Italic, 
one named Bold and one named Bold Italic.

·   If I open either of the Medium folders, the file name in the title bar 
still reads as BreuerText-Regular. otf or BreuerTextItalic-Regular.

·   When I create a paragraph tag in FM named BodyItalic, I select Breuer 
Text as the Font Family, and then for the angle, I select Italic, which should 
just switch the Regular font with the Regular Italic font, but boom. . .  the 
weight is also set to Bold immediately.  For the weight characteristic, there 
is a Regular option, so I try to select that and click Update All, but the 
angle is immediately reset to Bold and I cannot change it. Anytime I try to set 
the angle for any paragraph tag that uses the Breuer text to Italic, FM 
automatically sets the weight to Bold as well. 

·   I opened a Word doc., typed in some text in Breuer text, and then 
manually applied the Italic character. In Word, the text is only italicized. It 
is NOT bolded. I have to manually apply the Bold in Word.

·   If I use just Regular Breuer text in FM, and don't screw with the 
angle, the weight remains Regular. It does not get bolded.

 

I have tried rebooting, clearing my font cache, rebooting again and I still 
this issue in Framemaker

I have tried rebooting, clearing my font cache, rebooting again and I still
this issue in Framemaker with this danged Breuer text. I tried uninstalling
the Breuer text, clearing my font cache, reinstalling and still the same
issue. The Regular text gets loaded and installed with Medium in the name
in the Fonts directory and in FM., anytime I try to italicize a paragraph
tag, it gets bolded as well. 

This is really screwing up my docs., obviously, as I don't want all
italicized text to be bolded.

Any and all advice is sincerely appreciated.
