The Firefox developer tools have section "fonts"
The screenshot I attach:
What does signature the "deleteded" mean next to the font name?
The screenshot I attach:
P.S. Screenshot made with the Russian version. I assume that in the English version of the inscription "remove" or "delete"
Looks like a simple translation error. In the English version it reads "remote".
The Russian translator probably misread it as "remove". I suggest you file a bug report, so it gets fixed.
Perhaps (Remote font) this means that the font from a third-party source.
Namely downloaded from the Internet.
For example, on the BBC website font is installed "Arial".
In the Russian version is designated as a "systemic" (системный).

I have a software running on an embedded Linux written in Qt/QML. I am using a font family, let's call it SomeFontFamily.otf. This font family doesn't support Chinese characters, therefore when I want to display a Chinese text I am getting empty squares instead. If I run the same software on my desktop Linux I get the same result with Chinese text, but if I add a .font directory in my home folder with a font family that supports Chinese then it displays the characters. So I thought I can do the same on the embedded device and added a .font folder in my home directory with the right font, but unfortunately it didn't work. Then I have found this doc about Qt fonts on embedded devices. It says that I should put my font under lib/fonts directory because Qt will search there for it on embedded devices. I tried it, but unfortunately with no success. Anybody had a similar issue? Just for the record this is not translation related. I just want to be able to display Chinese characters in an english text.
Embedded QT versions often lack features, disabled by people who want to cut on dependencies without checking what the dependencies are there for in the first place.
To get font substitution to work you need a build with fontconfig enabled. To get complex text support (anything that exercises more than latin glyphs) you need harfbuzz, the newer version (harfbuzz-ng) the better.
I have fixed the problem with Arabic language by using my own FontConfig. You have to enable it using FontConfig & Font Qt Embedded
My final solution was actually creating a wrapper class for QFont and adding QFont::insertSubstitution(...) in the constructor for my set font. Then expose it to QML and use it as a default font. It works like a charm.
As a side note: if you have bundled your fonts with a resource file (.qrc) you have to add those fonts with QFontDatabase::addApplicationFont.
I've been using the same google fonts in development for a couple of months by now and today they just stopped to load in Chrome (works fine in FF).
I have the following line in my scss file:
#import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,600,700&subset=cyrillic,latin);
and I have the following requests in Chrome Network tab that return 404
Request URL:http://fonts.gstatic.com/s/opensans/v10/MTP_ySUJH_bn48VBG8sNSpX5f-9o1vgP2EXwfjgl7AY.woff2
Request URL:http://fonts.gstatic.com/s/opensans/v10/RjgO7rYTmqiVp7vzi-Q5URJtnKITppOI_IvcXXDNrsc.woff2
Request URL:http://fonts.gstatic.com/s/opensans/v10/k3k702ZOKiLJc3WVjuplzJX5f-9o1vgP2EXwfjgl7AY.woff2
Also it's worth pointing out that the requests' paths are different for FF and Chrome
Any idea what might've caused google fonts stop to work? I update my ubuntu everytime it offers updates, is there a chance it has to do something with ubuntu update?
PS if I simply open link that I use for the #import, it shows me font-faces for all the types there are for this font, instead of just the three I need, and again, it shows me only 3 in FF
See https://github.com/google/fonts/issues/14. Chrome users of Google Fonts for non-latin scripts for Open Sans were temporarily impacted.
Font Source url > http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,600,700&subset=cyrillic,latin
This looks like an issue with Google fonts, as when I point to /* latin */ http://fonts.gstatic.com/s/opensans/v10/k3k702ZOKiLJc3WVjuplzOgdm0LZdjqr5-oayXSOefg.woff2 it prompts me a file dialog to save.
Where as while pointing to /* cyrillic-ext */ http://fonts.gstatic.com/s/opensans/v10/K88pR3goAWT7BTt32Z01mxJtnKITppOI_IvcXXDNrsc.woff2 throws an error.
So it looks like font type is missing on the google server.
Google generates wrong URL's for some 'fonts.gstatic.com' fonts at the moment. This is Chrome specific issue only. The kernel of problem is wrong 'v10' part of URLs generated by Google.
I have discovered the problem for "Open Sans" font only.
For example, http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:200,300,400,600,700&subset=cyrillic,latin at the moment gives wrong URL for:
/* latin-ext */ "Open Sans", 300 font (add http:// before, as I can't add more than 2 links now as novice):
fonts.gstatic.com/s/opensans/v10/DXI1ORHCpsQm3Vp6mXoaTT0LW-43aMEzIO6XUTLjad8.woff2
At the same time if you'll try to download same font with changed URL ('v10' with 'v11' replaced) using Chrome - the font will be downloaded without any problems. Just try the font link above with 'v10' to 'v11' replaced:
http://fonts.gstatic.com/s/opensans/v11/DXI1ORHCpsQm3Vp6mXoaTT0LW-43aMEzIO6XUTLjad8.woff2
I have a website that is written in asp.net where the text is resourced in resource files. I am able to successfully view the correct characters for all (Spanish, German, Arabic, Korean, etc) languages except Chinese. When I change my browser to Chinese (any version) I get weird characters displayed. I have Chinese fonts installed and have tried changing encoding but nothing seems to work. This is happening in both IE9 and FF9.
Ex:
English - Progress
Chinese (in resource file) - 進度
Display in browser - 进程
Any help would be appreciated,
Matt
If you see weird characters in the .resx file when you edit it in Visual Studio, that means the file itself is corrupt. Fix the errors and the text should show up properly in the browser.
Today, I learn how to localize my Flex application and to support multiple languages. The tutorials on-line are great. However, non of them mention the Arabic locale.
So basically, I created the Arabic (Jordan) locale files in the SDK folder by using:
copylocale en_US ar_JO
I navigated to the locale folder and I was able to see the ar_JO folder in there... So I assume everything went smooth.
Next, I followed the tutorials (www.babelfx.org) and was able to localize my test application in English, French, and Arabic. Clicking on any of those languages switches the labels of my simple form/into the desired language... however:
When switching to the Arabic language the labels turn into empty square symbols. If you are wondering, yes I can open a notepad and type Arabic text and save it successfully.
When I type Arabic text into the text boxes, I can see the Arabic words that I typed correctly (the labels are still square symbols).
Any ideas what I might be missing here??
I tried changing the font of my application (right on the application tag I set the fontFamily) into Simplified Arabic which comes by default on Windows.
Thanks
Have you embedded a font into your swf which can render Arabic? Are you using that font? If the answer is no to either, then I suggest reading up on the subject.
One thing to remember about Flash and fonts is that it has incredible power which comes from the fact that one is able to embed actual fonts into the swf itself. One also needs to remember that Flash is incredibly finicky and is prone to throwing fits if you fail to do so.
The solution is to change the context-type to UTF-8. Three ways to accomplish this from within Flex Builder:
(Option 1) Right click the file from the File Navigator and select Properties
(Option 2) With the file open, navigate to the File menu and choose Properties
(Option 3) With the file open, press Alt + Enter to bring up the file Properties
Once the properties window is displayed, you will see the option to change the file encoding from Default to Other (UTF-8).
Note: At least for me, once I changed the content-type to UTF-8, I had to close my unsaved file, open it back up, and paste my contents back into the file in order to clear the error message. Then clean the project (Project -> Clean...) and let it rebuild.
I found the solution. Actually, I didn't have to embed any fonts or anything in order to get it working.
My problem was the encoding in the resources.properties file. I opened it in Notepad++, then I noticed the Encoding menu. At that time, I remembered reading something about that the encoding of the resources files should be UTF-8. So I converted the encoding to UTF-8 from the menu, compiled, it didn't work! After couple of retries and cleaning the project, it worked successfully!!!
Just a reminder for everybody (as I have fallen into this while working this problem out):
For mx components, embedded fonts must have the embedAsCFF set to false.
I have no idea why this is happening. I am following the standard tried and tested method of using google web fonts
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Sunshiney' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
<style>
h1{ font-family: 'Sunshiney', cursive; }
</style>
<h1>Hi there</h1>
This works in Safari, Chrome and IE but not FF7.
Has anyone come across this. I've also tried using the JS integration and the #import syntax and it is the same. I'm really stuck.
This is a known issue with Google Web Fonts. An internal configuration change broke serving of one of the headers needed for reliable operation in Firefox and IE9+. The fix is propagating now and it should be working soon.
Thanks for reporting the issue!
(I'm an engineer on the Google Web Fonts team, found this in a twitter search trying to investigate how deep the breakage went)
I think its problem with google
On my browser FF 7.01 is show Comics Sans
http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Sunshiney => redirect to
themes.googleusercontent.com/static/fonts/sunshiney/[...]3HZu7kw.woff
And response with no font data
but when type this adress in url bar i can save this font
so.
Just download this font and simple embennded to webpage
Will be faster
eq
====> 0,20second to download family=Sunshiney
=====> 0,30 to download woff font
There is currently an issue on Google's end with the Webfonts. It's odd because they were working just a few days ago, and I've seen them load up once or twice, but otherwise it's reverting to the fallback font.
Your best option is to download the file and manually embed it into your webpage using #font-face. There's a good article on that at Six Revisions.
I hope Google gets it sorted soon.
Just in case it helps someone, I just had a problem with Google Web Fonts not rendering on a colleague's Mac, but working on other (similarly configured) Macs. It was obviously something client side, and turned out to be the browser.display.use_document_fonts setting (see here).
To stop it happening, it's a case of going to Preferences .. Content .. Fonts & Colors .. Advanced and making sure "Allow pages to chose their own fonts, instead of my selections above" is checked.
