John Brownie Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I have a problem in that some text is not displaying. For example, the attached screen shot shows the beginning of the EBC, where the text at the top is invisible. If I select it and copy it, I get: Frank E. Gaebelein, General Editor J.D. Douglas, Associate Editor Preface And that still seems to be missing things, such as the title. Even worse, the ESVS module is completely blank! I am up to date with all my modules (just ran the updater) and the application (9.5.1), running on 10.7.2. Is it likely to be a function of having been an Accordance for many years and migrating from computer to computer over the years? What can I do?

jpkang Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Pretty sure this is a font issue... did it persist after a reboot? If so, what happens if you change the font? (Display > Set Tool/Text Display) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Display > Set Tool/Text Display) Yes, it does appear to be a font issue. My ESVS module was set to display in Arial, and was blank. Switching it to Helvetica fixes things. The EBC was set to Geneva, and bold wasn't showing. Setting it to Helvetica also fixed it. I am using FontExplorer X Pro to manage my fonts, and it tells me that Geneva doesn't have a bold or italic, just a plain version, which may be the issue. On the other hand, Geneva appears fine in some other modules, though I haven't looked for bold or italic in them. Anyway, thanks for pointing me in the direction of a solution. It will take some further experimenting to find out combinations of fonts that work well for me the way I use Accordance, but it's good to be able to see ESVS again!

John Brownie Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 Just a follow-up. It turned out that my Arial fonts had got corrupted. Replacing them seems to have fixed the weirdness of those texts that were using Arial as the display font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
