  • Ultimate++ Forum It Higher Priority Now
    Subject: It's suspected to be an issue with Font. Posted by Lance on Fri, 18 Mar 2011 22:50:28 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message The programs I used to compare are UWord from the UPP, and MS Word. The platform is Windows 7. The text I used to test is: The problem with U++ drawed text is that some characters are notably larger than others and some have incorrect horizontal displacement. Please see attached picture for a visual effect. I also encountered issue where chinese characters are displayed correctly displayed on Windows but are blank on Ubuntu. And when I copies the same text that was displayed as blank to, say gedit, the text displayed correctly as in Windows. That part I will attach picture in future.

It works fine on my Windows 7. However, I believe that the problem is caused by font substitution mechanism and perhaps on your system, you have some font that takes precendence for some glyphs, but does not contain other characters.

  • Ubuntu Kung Fu.Pdf
    Prepared exclusively for J.S. Ash Beta Book Agile publishing for agile developers The book you’re reading is still under development. As part of our Beta book program, we’re releasing this copy well before we normally would. That way you’ll be able to get this content a couple of months before it’s available in finished form, and we’ll get feedback to make the book even better. The idea is that everyone wins! Be warned. The book has not had a full technical edit, so it will con- tain errors. It has not been copyedited, so it will be full of typos and other weirdness. And there’s been no effort spent doing layout, so you’ll find bad page breaks, over-long lines with little black rectan- gles, incorrect hyphenations, and all the other ugly things that you wouldn’t expect to see in a finished book. We can’t be held liable if you use this book to try to create a spiffy application and you somehow end up with a strangely shaped farm implement instead. Despite all this, we think you’ll enjoy it! Throughout this process you’ll be able to download updated PDFs from your account on http://pragprog.com. When the book is finally ready, you’ll get the final version (and subsequent updates) from the same address. In the meantime, we’d appreciate you sending us your feedback on this book at http://books.pragprog.com/titles/ktuk/errata, or by using the links at the bottom of each page.

  • Ubuntu Typography – a Guide
    Ubuntu Guide Ubuntu Typography – A Guide Ubuntu is the preferred typeface of Special Olympics. It should be used for informational communications produced by Special Olympics. What does the word “Ubuntu” mean? Ubuntu is a Nguni word which has no direct translation into English, but is used to describe a particular African worldview in which people can only find fulfillment through interacting with other people. Thus it represents a spirit of kinship across both race and creed which unites mankind to a common purpose. Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu has said "Ubuntu is very difficult to render into a Western language…It is to say. 'My humanity is caught up, is inextricably bound up, in what is yours'…"1 Why has Ubuntu been chosen? Ubuntu has been chosen for clarity and accessibility both in print and on screen. It is available free of charge in a range of weights and styles. In what languages does Ubuntu appear? Ubuntu currently comes in a range of languages: Latin (Western), Greek & Cyrillic. Note: Arabic and Hebrew versions of Ubuntu are now under development. Please remember! If using Ubuntu typeface within Microsoft office documents (word/powerpoint) please note that these documents should only be shared with third parties or member of the public in PDF format. Otherwise Arial should be used in place of Ubuntu. Arial is available as standard on all PC and Mac computers. How can I access Ubuntu? Ubuntu is available as a free Mac or P.C. download at font.ubuntu.com Here are the steps to follow for a successful download: 1 No Future Without Forgiveness: A Personal Overview of South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Desmond Tutu, © 2000.
