This has been asked before, but I can't figure out what's wrong. I'm printing pdfs using phantomjs .render().
The rendered page is basically a local static site with these properties:
<meta charset="UTF-8">
font: normal 17px helvetica,arial,verdana,sans-serif
running and tested on Windows locally and Azure Worker Roles
Chinese language pack installed and working when printing the same page from Chrome (Installed fonts e.g. Arial Unicode MS, SimSun ...)
Latin characters are all fine, just Chinese ones are displayed as "?"
For example
I also tried the entire page in Arial or SimSun only, but no difference.
Any idea how to get this working on Windows?
Thanks!
You need a chinese font. None of them is in a chinese font family.
font: normal 17px helvetica,arial,verdana,sans-serif
Here are some font has chinese char.
宋体：SimSun; 黑体：SimHei; 新宋体：NSimSun; 微软雅黑：Microsoft YaHei; 新細明體：PMingLiU

Lastest to do, try to change your location to china. I don't expect this working, as I tried the phantomjs in win10 ENG preview, working very well. Control Panel > Region > Administrative > Language for non-Unicode programs

Let's view the following example in Firefox 61.0.1 on Ubuntu 18.04 with Charis SIL 5.000 installed:
<html lang="sr">
<head><meta charset="utf-8"></head>
<body style="font-family: 'Charis SIL'; font-style: italic">
кућа ми је отворена, моја ватра угашена<br>
зато, ако желиш, боже кише, само напред, пошаљи пљусак
</body>
</html>
It displays Russian versions of т, г, б and п instead of Serbian versions.
If I remove the font-family property or change it to some other value, like 'Ubuntu' or 'Noto Serif' or 'Caladea', Serbian versions are displayed correctly. If I view the same snippet unchanged in Chrome or Opera, they also display Serbian versions correctly. However, the combination of Firefox and Charis SIL somehow doesn't work. Why?
Here is a similar example using .woff so you don't have to install the font.
Here is a screenshot of how it should be (with Serbian cursive, taken in Chrome):
And here is what it looks like in Firefox (with Russian cursive):
I have created an email template and when running tests a strange icon shows up in one of the paragraphs when viewed in Outlook 2013.
The strange icon is between the words 'paying' and 'off'
Does anyone have any ideas on how to hide this icon
EDIT:
HTML
<tr>
<td style="padding:0 0 0 15px;">
<div style="font-family: Calibri,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;color:#FFFFFF;display:inline-block;">Great if you don’t pay off your card every month, or if you are paying off another card with a higher interest rate – saving you money.</div>
</td>
</tr>
Thanks
Possibly something you've already done - but have you tried deleting "paying off" and reytping it manually?
I can't replicate the problem copying the supplied code, so whatever that strange character is must have been stripped out by the stackoverflow editor.
I've encountered similar issues when copy and pasting text from pdfs, it looks perfect in the editor but Outlook attempts (and fails) to display invisible elements that the pdf includes for some reason.
Do you set the character set for your HTML page? Perhaps it's using the wrong encoding.
See this w3schools page
The HTML charset Attribute
To display an HTML page correctly, a web browser must know the character set used in the page.
This is specified in the <meta> tag:
For HTML4:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1">
For HTML5:
<meta charset="UTF-8">
Is it possible to tell a VBScript to use Windows Visual Styles, so that any form components use Windows themed ones rather than classic ones? For example, to make a MsgBox show a styled button rather than a classic 3D raised square one.
This:
As opposed to this:
In HTA applications, A simple meta tag will turn on Visual Styles:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="MSThemeCompatible" CONTENT="yes">
This trick has seemed to disappear completely from Google search results, leaving this S/O question at the top!
In the case where a VBScript MsgBox is the culprit, one would have to modify wscript host to use visual styles. But for the sake of the post, you can easily make your own replica of a MsgBox using an HTA file, and turning on visual styles. I created an exact replica based off your screenshot:
msgbox.hta:
<html>
<head>
<title>MsgBox Title</title>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="MSThemeCompatible" CONTENT="yes">
<HTA:APPLICATION ID="Custom MsgBox"
APPLICATIONNAME="Custom MsgBox"
BORDER="thin"
BORDERSTYLE="normal"
CAPTION="yes"
CONTEXTMENU="no"
ICON=""
MAXIMIZEBUTTON="no"
MINIMIZEBUTTON="no"
SHOWINTASKBAR="no"
SINGLEINSTANCE="no"
SYSMENU="yes"
SCROLL="no"
WINDOWSTATE="normal"/>
<script language="javascript">window.resizeTo(400,170);</script>
</head>
<body style="font-family:Arial;padding:20px 0 0 20px;background:rgb(180,240,230)">
<p>MsgBox Body; lorem ipsum dipsum</p><br>
<div align="right"><button onclick="window.close()" style="width:80px">OK</button></div>
</body>
</html>
It's small enough where you could echo it into an hta file right from a batch script, if you wanted to.
I hope this helps!
You cannot, but if you want to customize other properties of a message box this may help: http://www.javascriptkit.com/javatutors/vbalert.shtml
I recently started to use dreamweaver and i like it so far. I only got one problem with it.
I saw on youtube videos that when somebody types the code, after pressing enter dreamweaver automatically indents the code. The problem is, is that my dreamweaver doesnt do this for me.
I searched every forum, recreated my config folder and rechecked al the preferences (preferences -> format code) and enabled the auto indent in the code view options but nothing works.
Instead of getting this:
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<h1></h1>
</body>
</html>
i get this:
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<h1></h1>
</body>
</html>
anbody has the same problem?
I know you can set the indentation with specific tags, but html know allot of tags so i would be a pain if i had to do it one by one.
thanks!
Edit > Preferences > Code Format
Check the Indent checkbox.
In the last few days we have noticed that IE8 during page load occasionally shows momentarily a blank (white) page. It does not happen every single time. I would estimate about 10%. This issue has been brought to our attention by visitors on a site with several millions pages a day, which suggests that it has really appeared very recently. However, a quick look at the recent Windows updates did not reveal any changes related to IE at all. Also, I tried to turn on and off all possible options in IE, turn off all extensions, switch on and off compatibility mode, tried various doctypes etc. without any success. The problem can be demonstrated even on a very simple example:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<style type="text/css">
body { background-color: Black; color: White; }
a { color: White; }
</style>
</head>
<body style="background-color: Black;" bgcolor="Black">
Reload
</body>
</html>
Just click on the reload link repeatedly, and you will see a white flash occasionally. Can anybody else confirm it? I run Vista, but it has been reported also on XP. It seems like some internal repainting problem such as when you don’t make the window background transparent in the RegisterClass function.
I've got the same problem with some sites I've build. It's very annoying and I haven't seem to solve it yet. Same occurs in IE6 and IE7, but that can be 'solved' with
<meta http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="blendTrans(Duration=0)" />
<meta http-equiv="Page-Exit" content="blendTrans(Duration=0)" />
Couldn't find a solution for version 8.
I had a similar issue and searched every where for an answer. I think I may have it. I had a flash banner and would get an ugly white flash that filled the browser whenever I clicked on a link to a new page or did a refresh. I placed wmode:'transparent' in the parameter list for the swf object. Now it looks the same as FF - no ugly white flash!
swfobject.embedSWF('banner.swf', 'flashcontent', '960', '120', '9.0.0', 'assets/swfobject/expressinstall.swf', {}, {bgcolor: '#000000', menu: 'false', wmode:'transparent'}, {id: 'flashcontent'});
