Currently I have this:  However, I find this font more appealing:  How does on generally figure out which font is which (without formal training in typography), and how in this particular case to use the font specified in the second image? I know this is a rather ad hoc question, and SO favours more &quot;conceptual&quot; ones, but I simply cannot think of a better venue to post this question. EDIT: The  to the original pdf. I've used the pdffont and it mentioned something like Garamond and MacTimes.
Is it possible to identify the font used in a specific document/picture?  Answers to this question should identify:   Possible methods to do this (perhaps one answer per method) and adequately describe how to use it (as opposed to merely stating it); Ways of finding the identified fonts, if possible (free or not); and Any prerequisites associated with the method used, if required (for example, "In order to use method X, your document has to be in format Y").   This question is meant as an FAQ, based on an . Its aim is to facilitate the community with the general procedures involved in font identification. Similar cases are solved on a per-usage basis on 's  tag.
Smooth shaded model has odd shading I'm currently working on a model of an X-wing that I'm intending for use in a game and running into a bit of trouble with the shading of the mesh. The upper nose is rounded off where the sensor cone attaches, but at the point it reaches the canopy frame it flattens out and meets at a corner.  Everything is fine and dandy when the sides are modeled:    but once I close it off and add the top of the nose, the shading goes to hell:    As you can see, the smoothing gets confused at the lip of the cockpit.  I've tried a couple different means of getting around this, none of which looks right while maintaining the correct shape. The transition from the rounded to flat is a fairly important part of the ship's character, so I don't want to discard the contours, either.  Any tips or suggestions on modeling this area?  Addendum:  If I eliminate that second angle where the canopy frame meets the fuselage as marked in red:    this also fixes the smoothing. However this is not a solution, as the angle is a part of the design. It DOES give me another thought on fixing, but I won't be able to test it until I get home. Is “of ” necessary in “all of ”?

I have been on a career break to allow myself to study full time for the IELTS exam (from which I recently got the required band score) and PLAB 1. I have now registered and paid for the PLAB 1 exam in UK for June 2016, as the next sitting in Pakistan is in November 2016 and I feel like I am ready to do the exam sooner.  Due to having no current employment, my savings are limited (around 25,000 Pakistani Rupees) but I live with my parents and do not have any financial commitments at home.  My savings have depleted in the past ten months whilst I have taken a career break and the money has been used for my own personal expenses. My trip to the UK is being funded by my grandfather who is a British citizen. He is a retired doctor with a good NHS pension. He has provided me with:   6 months bank statements which clearly show his pension deposits   Letter from NHS Pensions stating his pension   Sponsorship letter stating that he will pay for my PLAB exam fee, travel, accommodation and subsistinence costs whilst in the UK   Copy of British passport  Document confirming that he owns the house he lives in mortgage-free Confirmation email from GMC stating he has paid the PLAB exam fee.   Without large personal savings and no current job (but I have job offers now) would my application be rejected or is the strong sponsorship going to be good enough?  Are there any other documents I should consider submitting that may help me get a visa? When should I use mmap for file access? POSIX environments provide at least two ways of accessing files.  There's the standard system calls open(), read(), write(), and friends, but there's also the option of using mmap() to map the file into virtual memory.  When is it preferable to use one over the other?  What're their individual advantages that merit including two interfaces? This is a basic question on Box-Jenkins MA models. As I understand, an MA model is basically a linear regression of time-series values $Y$ against previous error terms $e_t,..., e_{t-n}$. That is, the observation $Y$ is first regressed against its previous values $Y_{t-1}, ..., Y_{t-n}$ and then one or more $Y - \hat{Y}$ values are used as the error terms for the MA model.  But how are the error terms calculated in an ARIMA(0, 0, 2) model? If the MA model is used without an autoregressive part and thus no estimated value, how can I possibly have an error term?

Biblatex: Don't show n.d. when no year is given I am using biblatex/biber with several bibliographies for my book, and the misc-type, which is also a single bibliography (as a chapter), for legal documents. These documents often do not have a proper date or rather the date is part of the title. However, Latex gives me a "n.d." output, and I am wondering what I can do for it to not give a "n.d." when there is no year given?    To make clear, the reason for why I don't want to use the "year" field is that I deal with very different kinds of documents, which may either have no date or the date is in the title, because of which I prefer to simply "hard-copy" the whole thing in the "howpublished"-section and need to suppress the year, if none is provided.

I'm trying to use the Bash parameter expansions to modify the output of a command substitution or another parameter expansion.

Finding $\tan t$ if $t=\sum\tan^{-1}(1/2t^2)$ I am solving this problem. If $$\sum\limits_{i=1}^{\infty} \tan^{-1}\biggl(\frac{1}{2i^{2}}\biggr)= t$$ then find the value of $\tan{t}$.   My solution is like the following: I can rewrite: \begin{align*} \tan^{-1}\biggl(\frac{1}{2i^{2}}\biggr) &amp; = \tan^{-1}\biggl[\frac{(2i+1) - (2i-1)}{1+(2i+1)\cdot (2i-1)}\biggr] \\\ &amp;= \tan^{-1}(2i+1) - \tan^{-1}(2i-1) \end{align*}  and when I take the summation the only term which remains is $-\tan^{-1}(1)$, from which I get the value of $\tan{t}$ as $-1$. But the answer appears to be $1$. Can anyone help me on this. Dual boot windows 8 and Ubuntu with Windows 8 Boot manager General rule for partial fraction decomposition Inverse of a diagonal matrix plus a constant I am looking for an efficient solution for inverting a matrix of the following form:  $$D+aP$$   where $D$ is a (full-rank) diagonal matrix, $a$ is a constant, and $P$ is an all-ones matrix.   gives a solution to the special case where all diagonal entries of $D$ are the same.  The  formula is also capable of providing a solution to this problem by setting appropriate $u$ and $v$, but it loses efficiency ($O(n^3)$ time complexity to compute) at high dimension. I am hoping to get a result in the same form so the space and time complexity are both $O(n)$.
