HELP WITH FONT SIZE

Hello,
In Dreamweaver, how do I change the dropdown menu of font size to ENUMERATED? I went into the CODE FORMAT and could not do it there. I would rather work with the numbers for font size than the small, medium, large, etc. Any help appreciated.

You'll get better cross browser results with ems or pixels.
CSS
html {font-size: 100%}
body {font-size: 1em}
h1 {font-size: 2.5em;} /* 40px/16=2.5em */
h2 {font-size: 1.875em;} /* 30px/16=1.875em */
p {font-size: 0.875em;} /* 14px/16=0.875em */
or
h1 {font-size:40px;}
h2 {font-size:30px;}
p {font-size:14px;}

PhotoShop Elements 10...I need help with font size for watermark in Processing Multiple Files.....

I have PhotoShop Elements 10, and I am trying to watermark some of my photos, I have successfully added them one at a time with a font large enough to be seen. Now I am trying to add it using the "process multiple files" , I can do that but the font even at 72 the largest setting is so small on the photo you can barely read it! Can anyone help me the size larger on my photos?

Thank you, Michael. I just watched the Russell Brown video again for CS6 and looked real closely at his settings in ACR and he was using 240ppi. I changed my file in image size to 240 ppi and then ran the script and the layer didn't change size this time when I ran the script.
It is kind of annoying to have to change the image size everytime I want to run this script and then change it back again as most of my files are 300 ppi. I used to run his script for edit in ARC in CS5 and recall that if I just remembered to change the settings in ARC to 300 ppi while the script was playing and before pressing 'open' that the image wouldn't change size during the raw processing, but this doesn't seem to be working in CS6. Do you know of a way to use this script and not have to change the ppi for the image to 240?
Thanks again.

Problem with font size, not showing up as expected.

I've been wrestling with this for a few weeks now, but surely must be getting closer to having it resolved. It's just a problem with font size on just this one page.
http://www.kgngroup.net/logos_and_packaging.html
I want the body text to be 10px, but after two weeks, have played with every conceivable way, altering body font size in CSS and in the document itself. I've viewing it in Safari but others on Windows machines tell me that it is out of whack also.
My main problem is that I can change the font size to extremes but it still shows up as the same size in the browser (about 12px.) I know changes can be made because I can modify the wording and that does change online. It's just a problem with the font size. Oh, and in the third column, the one to the right, in Dreamweaver, the font looks like it is miniscule, cannot even be read, but in the browser, since the style11 is applied, all three columns look equal size.
Not sure where to go from here. I just want to get the body font down to 10 pixels.
TIA,
Ken

What would really help you in diagnosing issues such as this is to install the Firebug add-in for Firefox (as suggested in the earlier thread).
Firebug shows you visually what CSS rules apply to whatever element you click on the screen.
In this case, you have a confusion of CSS font sizes cascading on top of each other and that's confused again by mixing units for no real reason. .style11 is unnecessarily applied to lots of individual <p> tags. Remove those classes and delete the rule.
e.g.
The tiny font in the RHS column is affected first by
.style8 {
font-size: 0.5em;
affecting the <td> then by
.style11 {font-size: 75%}
affecting the <p> tag.
End result = tiny text (approx 2px).
In these cases of mass confusion, my approach is to strip out all font sizing from the CSS and start over.
Avoid %. Use px.
Apply font sizing rules logically starting from the <body> tag downwards.
That'll give you a solid baseline without weird effects.
Ah, I find your answer worth repeating.
Very cool that you have diagnosed so well and spelled it out here.
I will get the Firefox add-on you mention, plus, print out this response and follow it like a recipe.
It makes perfect sense and you have saved me from the 'clutter' of being wound up in too many directions with this because I could not make all of the connections that you have done here. I appreciate your help very much.
Thank You,
Ken

Need Help with Font - Style - Size

how do you keep these the same size and style on all pages?
example font and size will be the same but style wont. when i try
set the same style the size changes, and if you set size the style
changes.

font-style:normal;
It's not necessary to restate defaults.

Just Installed CS4; Need Help With Font Names/Colors/Sizes

In past versions of Dreamweaver, I think I clicked on "Use HTML instead of CSS" in the Preferences. I need to be able to select the font names, colors, and sizes from the Property Inspector.
How do I set it up the same way in CS4. I have clicked on the toggle button in the Property Inspector for HTML instead of CSS, but it doesn't give me the menus to select font names (Arial, Helvetica, etc.), font size (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) and font color (imagine your own).
Thanks!
Mike

DW CS4 makes you use the CSS properties inspector because CSS is the defacto web standard now. HTML formatting is deprecated (obsolete) according to W3C web standards.
There are three ways to use CSS in your site pages.
Inline: A one-time style applied within the code as an attribute of a given element (or tag). This is similar to the old HTML formatting method but the code itself is a little different.
Embedded: A style sheet declaration in the head of the document that will only effect that single page on the site.
External: A physical CSS file containing rules (styles) that is linked to from multiple pages within the site.
It doesn't matter if you have dynamically generated or static web pages. CSS is still the most efficient way to style your content.

Help with Font on website

Hi Guys,
I'm having a little problem with a website, the soloution is probably really simple but cant for the life of me figure it out.
Welcome to 1st Winnington Scouts
Please choose your section below.
In my html the above is under the div tag "main" and the css for h1 is calibri font and it shows this in dreamweaver. Whenever I use live view, or preview in browser, or have it uploaded as it is now the font reverts back to times new roman and black in colour.
The link to the site is below.
http://winningtonscouts.hostei.com/
Any help with this would be grand

Sorry I meant to say Courier New, not Calibri
On the Style sheet there are
#main_image h1 {
    font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
    color: #51327B;
    font-size: 36px;
    font-variant: small-caps;
    font-weight: bold;
    text-align: center;
#main_image p {
    font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
    font-size: 14px;
    color: #51327B;
    text-align: justify;
#main_image h2 {
    font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
    color: #51327B;
    font-size: 24px;
    font-weight: bold;
    font-variant: small-caps;
    text-align: center;

Help on font sizes and browser resizing issues

When browsers resize the text, they can have a significant impact on the my designs. I am using CSS positioning, and not tables. I am also using relative font sizes, usually ems. I can get everthing to look right on my pages when the browsers are set at the normal or medium text size. But, i run into problems when the browser is set at the large or largest text size. I need help dealing with this issue in general. But, here's an example that best illustrates the problem:
I set some white-colored text on a dark background in a banner at set at 800px x 50px. The font size is set at 1 ems. The background color for the rest of the page is white. So, when the white-colored text fits easily within the banner, everything works okay. But, when the browser resizes the text, the white text flows beyond the dark background color of the banner and becomes invisible on the white background of the page. Is there some way to use margins, padding, or line size to manage this type of situation?
What are the best tactics to use regarding font size when using CSS positioning ?
Thanks for any help on this question.

Thank you for your prompt response. I will put my page on a test server when I can. But, for now, here is my code below.
I get your point about flexibility.The question is how? What are the best approaches to use? I have the sense that more experienced designers have some conventional tactics for ensuring the pages read reasonably well even when the text size is enlarged in the browsers, but I am not sure what approach might work in general.
Part of the issue with this particular design is that I am actually using a background image in the header/banner. And it has a set height:51 px. I don't want it to repeat it vertically whenever someone enlarges the text size in their browser.
Again, I would appreciate any help offered.

When I put Pages in fullscreen my bar with fonts, size, and format disappears

in old pages, in fullscreen i could scroll my mouse up and i would get the fonts, size, and formant, etc. bar. but now it just disapeares?
                                                                 |

Are other apps working fine in full screen? Just Pages?
It is working for me, so perhaps a restart to see if that helps?
But like many, I am sticking with the old Pages for now.

Can someone help with auto-size fields in forms?

I created a form in Acrobat for my team members with auto-size text fields that allow to shrink the text when the field size is not large enough to show the entire text. When I then open the same form file with Adobe Reader on my machine with text that has shrunk in some field, I can see all the text and have also a scroll function when the text size has reached its lower limits and there is still more text to show.
However, when I receive the filled out forms back from other team members' iPads (they use my template created with Acrobat), the text didn't shrink as on a PC version and the scroll function is disabled. I checked the template and the fields are correctly set to auto-size left and they do work on my PC's and laptop's Adobe Reader. But the iPad version of Adobe Reader may cause some issues.
Can anybody help with solutions?
Thank you!
Klaus

The filled version of your PDF document (20140722 Daily Meeting Report...pdf) is no longer a PDF form because it has been flattened.
Once an interactive PDF form (such as your template version) is flattened, all form fields are replaced with images of filled data. You can no longer interact with form fields, edit form data, or tap/click any buttons in the flattened PDF document. That is the reason why the text in auto-size text fields did not shrink.
When you email a PDF document (including a PDF form) in Adobe Reader for iOS, the E-mail Document dialog is displayed.
In this particular case, your team member must have selected "Share Flattened Copy".
If you would like to keep the interactivity of a PDF form, you can select "Share Original Document". Please advise your team members to select the "Share Original Document" option when emailing filled forms.
Unfortunately, once flattened, a PDF document cannot be reverted back to the original "unflattened" state. However, if your team members still have the original filled forms, they can resend the forms with the "Share Original Document" option.
Please let us know if you have further questions.

Compositing text modifications with font size modifications for undo

Hey TLF gurus,
So here's my situation. I have a text flow. The user starts typing "The lazy brown dog..." and after each character is typed I'm modifying the font size of all the text to make it fit inside the container. Here's how I'm doing that: http://aaronhardy.com/flex/size-text-to-container/ (you can right-click the app to see the source).
That all works well, but undo isn't working so well. When I hit undo, I would like it to remove the text. But when I call undo on the undo manager, it gets to EditManager.performUndo() where it checks to see if operation.endGeneration is different than textFlow.generation. In my case, they aren't the same because I updated the font size after the last keystroke. Because they're different, the undo fails. Because I updated the font size after the last text insert, TextFlow.processModelChanged() was called and increased the text flow's generation while the insert text operation's end generation stayed the same.
Ultimately I think I want to create a composite operation that contains any text modifications with their following text auto-sizing. Either that or I want to prevent my font auto-sizing operation from affecting the text flow generation. Either way, I'm not sure how to go about pulling it off. I'm sure I can make some sweet hacks but I'd really appreciate some guidance. Thanks.
Aaron

I'm able to successfully merge the sizing operations with the text operations. I did it in a round-about way but afterward I found a more appropriate way: executing the ApplyFormatOperation by calling back into EditManager.doOperation when the FlowOperationEvent.FLOW_OPERATION_END event is dispatched from TextFlow (essentially making it recursive). This way the EditManager will composite the operations. This is described pretty well in the code and documentation of EditManager.doInternal(). I didn't test it, however.
Instead, for a couple reasons I decided not to go with that plan at all but instead went with my Plan B which was to prevent my font auto-sizing operation from affecting the text flow generation. I essentially want the auto-sizing to occur without it going into the undo history, modifying the text flow generation, etc., etc. I want it to go incognito. The way I did this was to store the text flow's generation, make the font size modifications, then set the text flow's generation back to what it was before the font size was applied. This may have some negative repercussions but for now I think it's the best approach for my needs.
Thanks for letting me talk to myself! Feel free to add ideas.

Need Help Changing Font Size on Mail Program

OS X 10.8.3
My mail list under "sort by date" column has a small font which I would like to make bigger.
I have gone to Mail>Preferences> Fonts & Colors but none of those cseem to change the font in the second mail column under (Sort by date).

There generally is no way to change the font, or font size. TinkerTool is one of a few utilities that will allow the change of some items, but for the most part, the OS ignores any settings you use in TinkerTool.
The default font for the system is Lucida Grande. You absolutely cannot change it. If you delete the font from the System folder, the OS will immediately replace it with a copy from a deeply hidden location. If you delete the font from both locations, the Mac will instantly become completely unusable, requiring a reinstall of the OS from your OS X installation disks. Unless you have another drive with OS X on it so you can copy Lucida Grande back to the drive you removed it from.
About the only easy way to increase the font size overall is to select a lower resolution in the Displays section of the System Preferences.

Help Viewer Font Size Way Too Small

Hello,
The font size of the adobe help viewer content is way too
small (it looks like a 4 pt or something). I can hardly read it at
all. Can someone please tell me how to enlarge it?
Thanks a lot!
Mike

Hi Mike
I recall that earlier incarnations of the help viewer had a
zoom setting that would allow for this. Sadly, it seems to have
disappeared and I'm unsure why.
Perhaps it will be helpful to know that you may view the

I NEED HELP WITH THE SIZE OF MY WINDOW ON IPHOTO 08'

Hi, I have had my mac for a while now and I was wondering if somene could help.
I know it is alot different then other computers when choosing the size of the appearence of windows on the screen. I have been using iphoto for a while and when I first started using it the application only took up half of the screen (when fully opened) which i was really happy about since it made it easy for my to drag and drop onto my desktop. The other day I clicked the green button in the top left corner to make it bigger, as I thought it would help with what I wanted to do.
My problem is.. now when I go to click the green button to shrink it down to half the size again it does not work. I am wondering if there is something wrong? or is it just always supposed to be this way? I am hoping not as i really liked having it in a smaller window. please help
thanks, katie

You can resize any window on a Mac simply by grabbing the lower right hand corner and dragging.

I am experiencing an issue with font size on a calender... see below

Apple discovered an issue with the file you submitted. The font is
inconsistent in places, and we want to make sure your calendar turns
out just the way you designed it. We’ve canceled your order— you won’t
be charged, and we have some suggestions for correcting the issue.
Please update iPhoto, change the theme of your calendar, then change it
back to the original theme.
Once completed, confirm the issue has been resolved by previewing your
calendar in iPhoto. Then place the order again once you’re satisfied
with how the calendar appears in preview.
If the issue persists after changing the theme, please contact Apple
Support for assistance. Just visit
<http://www.apple.com/support/iphoto/> and click “Get started” in the
upper-right hand corner of the page.
the fix is not working, I am using iPhoto 11, latest version, and trying to build a picture camera. Essentially the dates have gone really small. I can share a PDF.

See the More Like This section at the right. One user explained how to edit a file in the application to fix the problem of date and day fonts reverting to 6 pt. if any font size was changed.
