9 Pro Extended: How to get Typewriter Font & Font Size menus?

I'm using Acrobat 9 Pro Extended on Windows/XP/SP3.
I use the Typewriter Tool quite frequently to insert text into a document.
I have the Typewrite Toolbar enabled and it is docked with my other toolbars.
When I want to insert text I click the typewriter icon on the toolbar.
My mouse pointer changes to a vertical bar with an A next to it.
I move to the insertion point and left click which leaves a vertical bar positioned at the insertion point.
Most of the time the Typewriter Toolbar is then 'opened' so that I can change the font or the font size.
But sometimes when I click, those parts of the Typewriter Toolbar stay grayed out.
The five icons between the typewriter icon and the drop down menus for font and font size are
also grayed out. I've tried a number of things to try to make those items available but have
never been able to figure out something that works. I can insert text. I just can't alter
the characteristics of the text.
Any ideas why the font and font size menus stay grayed out in the Typewriter Toolbar?
Thanks!

There is no way in PSE to change the font size of menu options in Photoshop Elements. You can try changing the resolution of your monitor.

  • How to get reasonable font size with higher screen resolution

    I'm using my new Mac Mini as living room PC with 42" plasma screen and tv itself seems to support quite well the 'better' resolutions like 1024x768. Unfortunately then text is too small to read from sofa (which is about 3 meters away from tv). I have switched back to 800x600 resolution where font sizes are almost ok but many programs complaint about the resolution (e.g. Google Earth) and need to change the resolution back and worth to get some OK button pressed which is glumsy.
    I have also found pretty good Tinkertool to finetune font sizes but it does not affect all font sizes like I want. So question is there any better solution how I could find theme that suites better for living room purpose (have not find any theme possibilities for MacOSX). In Linux I could finetune X fontserver, in WIndows I could fine tune the theme used to have bigger fonts, how do I do it in this cool mac?

    I hear you! I would also like to see an answer for this. I am running Leopard on a Mac Mini on my 50 inch display in the living room. I have set the resolution to 1080p so that the video and photos are as sharp as possible. (man the videos look great)...
    But, I have a very hard time reading the menu bar, as well as safari and mail from this machine. I realize that there are ways to increase the font sizes, but:
    1) when I restart safari, I have to change the settings each time
    2) when I restart mail, I have have to change the setting each time
    3) I cannot figure out a way to make the menu bar larger
    I really don't want to bring the mac mini down to a resolution like 800X600 - I think it would look horrible on the large screen.
    What is a big screen lover to do?
    Any help would be most appreciated...
    Cheers!

  • How to change the font size of Text box tool ?

    How to change the font size of Text box tool ?
    I am using Acrobat PDF 6.0
    Tools > Advanced Commenting > Text Box Tool
    I need to know how to change the font size. The default font size is too big.
    let me know
    Thanks

    I do not have AA6 available right now (I can check at home this evening). I am also using AA Pro, not Std. In AA7, there is a text box tool that is a commenting tool. When I started typing, a properties toolbar came up that had the font size and such. I haven't figured out how to get the toolbar after the fact. In AA8, I selected the text box tool and then went to view and selected the properties bar (the font size and all showed then), or use Ctrl-E when editing the text. I have not been able to figure out how to edit the text in a text box after you have created it - think it is a mental block right now. Bill

  • Get system font size (CL_GUI_RESOURCES= GET_FONTSIZE)

    I'm using CL_GUI_RESOURCES=>GET_FONTSIZE to retrieve the SAP GUI font, so that I can adjust some web content dynamically.
    However, I'm getting some strange results back, and wanted to know how I should interpret the result of this method.
    When using SAPGUI for Windows 7.30, with a system defined font size of 9, this method returns:
    90,000
    At first I thought maybe I just need to arbitrarily divide by 10,000 to get the font size in points. 
    However when using SAPGUI for Java on my retina macbook pro, with a system defined font size of 12, this method returns:
    78,545
    Can anyone tell me exactly what this method is returning, and how I can convert it to the actual system font size in points?

    Yes you can't use CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES from a BSP page.  CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES using activeX controls running within the SAPGui to perform most of its actions.  Since you have not connection to a SAPGui during a BSP page, you can use this class.
    You might want to look at scripting against the Microsoft FileSystem Object.  There is a size property of both the folder and file object.  A search of Microsoft's website will show lots of documentation on this object and code samples in VBScript and JavaScript.  This does opens up all kinds of security concerns from the browser however.

    How to adjust the font size of iPad printout of web pages ?

    In HTML Header I put textDid you mean Page Header Text? It wouldn't have done much of anything at all in the HTML Header...
    However, the font doesn't do anything.Yet another universal selector problem: see +{message:id=4184109}+
    How do I overwrite the style sheet? I am wondering if I change the default style sheet, does that also affect the other pages, which is not what I want. In that case you can just include the CSS inline, which will also get round the universal selector issue. You are also recommended to use a semantic HTML element instead of deprecated presentational elements like <center> and <font>. Assuming this text is the primary heading on the page, use <h1>:
    <img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#my_header_logo_white.jpg" alt="" title="Application" />
    <h1 style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">Web Management System</h1>

  • How to change the font size in sap scripts?

    hi friends,
        i had a query regarding to SAPSCRIPT.
      how to change the font size of a text in sap script form in which it should change it  dynamically.
    is it possible to change the font size dynamically in scripts.
    one more query regarding to this only.
    i need to get the hard copy of a script .
    what is the transaction code to get the hard copy?

    Hi venkata,
    You can specify the font size either in the Character format or pharagraph format.
    You better decide it according to your requirement.  If you want to apply the same font size for the entire form create the Paragraph format and give the paragraph format in the default paragraph format.
    If you want to apply that to limited text, then create character format.
    The process of creating it is just after going inside paragraph format click EDIT-> Create Element and give the font size.
    This applies for character format also.
    Reward points if useful.
    Thanks,
    karthik

  • How do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion.  Everything is greyed and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which are now invisible?

    how do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion. Since upgrading,  all fonts are grey, instead of black,  and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which also are grey and almost invisible?  And if you can asnwer this, can you tell me how to get back the email format I had before the upgrade?  I no longer have column headings and I'd like them.  Thank you. 

    Do you know about changing the font colors for ical, and the color of the scroll bars?
    No, I don't. I don't use that program; I fiddled with it just now, and could not find a way to do that.
    Perhaps someone else will have an idea.

    Preferences/Compsing/set to Rich Text (only then you can use bold etc).
    Then Rightclick the toolbar in Mail, and clcik Customize the toolbar.
    Put the icons (with or without text) that you want on your toolbar.

    Hi
    i want to know how to change the font size of text element in smartform
    regards
    Gincy

    Hi
    You can create Smartstyles, in which you can define paragraph formats for texts and character formats for character level changes.
    Paragraph format ---> alignment, font size etc
    character format for ---> superscript, subscript.
    After creating, in your smartform, there will be a option in the text element to enter a style.
    You give the created style and you can use the paragraph and character formats i that style.
    Hope this is clear..
