Adjusting UI Font Size or Colors for a Legally Blind User

I just purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 13, and am having a bit of an issue seeing some of the things in the UI. I am legally blind, but see well enough for most things. However, the fonts on my installation seem to be quite small, and the light gray background with dark fonts is a bit difficult for me to see. I'm hoping there is a way to adjust these settings, I've looked through the preferences but did not see anything that would let me adjust these types of things. Is there any way to make fonts bigger, or at least change colors of the UI? I'm comfortable with editing hidden settings, or even the registry if I must.

I doubt if it will give an immediate fix to the issue, but you could file an Adobe Feature Request/Bug Report Form asking for the type of user interface control that you seek.
The link is not available at the moment. I will post it as soon as it is if you are interested in it. Or you can do a Google Search for Adobe Feature Request/Bug Report Form.
In Premiere Elements 4, 7, and 8.0/8.0.1, there was an Edit Menu/Preferences/User Interface choice which essentially dealt with brightness control for the User Interface.
Version 4
Version 7
Version 8.0/8.0.1
In versions 9.0/9.0.1, 10, 11, 12, and 13, this preference is gone.

Set-up custom font, font size, and color for writing new and reply e-mails in Thunderbird

I know that I can select the font, size, and color for writing each new and reply e-mails in Thunderbird, but I don't want to have to do this each time. I want to set-up the default font, size, and color for all new and reply e-mails. It already comes up with a default one, but I want to change it, but can't figure out how to do this. I'm sure it is quite simple, but I don't know how to do this. Thank you in advance for help.

Tools > Options > Display > Formatting tab
Default font: select font
Select size : eg; 14
Click on 'Advanced' button and set all the sizes to 14
Select : 'allow messages to use other fonts'
click on OK
Click on 'Composition'
Under the 'General' tab
Suggest you set HTML font to 'Variable width' and Size : 'Medium'
Select the 'Text colour' you would like to compose email using
Select the 'Background colour' you would like to use when composing emails.
click on OK to save all changes.
This will set the display email list to the selected font.
It will allow received emails to use the font the sender used.
When you compose an email it will also use the same font settings.
The message 'Display' settings in the above section also apply to messages that you compose. The settings are not sent, so they do not affect how your messages appear to recipients.
The settings in the ''Composition' section can affect how messages are sent. If you make unusual choices, then people who receive messages from you might find them difficult or impossible to read. Hence, why I suggest you leave it as 'Variable width' and allow the 'Display' settings to set the default used for composing emails.

How to Control Defualt Styles(Font,Size,BG Color) for WPC Objects

Hi All,
This is Ganesh, Current i am working on Content Migration Using WPC.Now My Question, while we are creating the Site Content using WPC(Like Articles, Paragraph's, etc...), while we are typing the content for Article, its showing in one font, after creation of article,while we are previewing of the Article , its showing in Blue Color Letter's and Shade Blue back ground and also Coming font big in size.
If i am creating the paragraph, while we are previewing the its Displaying in Black Color.
From where the details of font, size and back ground colors are coming in WPC objects.and if they have to modified, how can it be done?
Where We can Control the Default Styles for WPC Content Creation Objects.If Possible how to modify?
Please provide some valuble inputs for my Query???
Thanks in Advance
Ganesh

Ganesh,
You are absolutely right. If you modify the xml, xsl and css files supplied by the standard SAP it will affect all the users. Please note that whenever you need to modify the css, you need to do the same in /etc/wpceditor/css/runtime folder. Modification of the css in /etc/wpceditor/css/designtime folder is not of any use.
If you do not want the changes made to the style to affect all other users, it is always wiser and recommended to create your own custom webform. Some webforms like Article, Link List, banner, teaser etc are provided by SAP. If you want to create your own webform and apply the style to that webform alone then you need to follow the process of creating custom webforms in WPC.
In order to change the style you need to understand a bit of XML and XSL transformation.
You can refer to the following sdn help for the same - http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/45/599b78b0aa3bdde10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm
Hope it helps. Let me know if you need any further clarification.

The tool bar is missing for font,size and color for lettering in elements 9

Iam missing tool bar for font, style and size and color. where is it?

Are you sure you have the regular horizontal or vertical type tool and not one of the type masks selected? If you choose the type mask tools you see a dotted outline around the T icon instead of a solid T.

Default font, size and color for email

I would dearly enjoy having the same font, of my choice, appear on each e-mail that I type, without having to reset each time. Specifically, Times Roman, Bold Italic, 20, Blue. When I set this for any one outgoing mail, it is gone the next time, and often even before I begin to type. Given the astounding capabilities of OS X, I would think that the mail program could be tweaked to achieve this, but my ProCare Creative at the local Apple Store says, "Not possible".
Can anyone offer me hope?

I'll cross fingers that Leopard will allow
user to set a chosen default font for e-mails.
Leopard has lots of templates:
http://www.apple.com/macosx/leopard/features/mail.html
I think "that other computer" allows it.
Nothing to do with the "computer." Different apps have different features. Here's one list of other mail apps for Mac:

How can I adjust the font size of my printouts?

I have an HP Officejet 4500 all-in-one printer and a new HP pavilion Slimline computer. Since I changed to this computer, my printouts have very small font size making them hard to read. How can I adjust the font size of the printout? Is it a computer or printer function? I appreciate the help.

I, too, am frustrated. This seems like something that would easily be handled within the application software. However, none of the fixes I've been offered have been very helpful. My cousin sugested using Control C and Control V to move the text to WORD. Once in WORD, you can manipulate the text on a WORD page...sometimes. I've had good and bad luck with this method. It still requires working in two different programs to get it legible. Does anyone else have a 4500 All-in -one with this problem, or is it only me? Thanks, [Edited for Personal Information]

How can I adjust the font size in iTunes 11?

How can I adjust the font size in iTunes 11? Specifically, when in Artist view both the text in the sidebar and the track listing are huge.

How to change fontsize in iTunes
Take an XML-Editor and open:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\de.lproj\TextStyles.plist"
For other languages change your country code (de, en, fr, pl ...).
Example for english: "\en.lproj\TextStyles.plist".
Backup this File !!!
To change the Text-Size, change the integer value of the following item:
"<key>size</key>"
"<integer>8</integer>"
This means Text-Size 8
"<key>size</key>"
"<integer>12</integer>"
This means Text-Size 12
To change the font, change the integer value of the following item:
<key>font</key>
<string>Arial</string>
This means the font changes to Arial
This also works:
<key>italic</key>
<true/>
<key>bold</key>
<true/>
<key>underline</key>
<true/>

How do I change the font size and color in my e-mail?

I'm using the regular MAIL application on my Macbook (OSX 10.5.5) and I'm wondering how to change the font size and color of my incoming and outgoing mail.
Any suggestions?
thanks!

I'm using the regular MAIL application on my Macbook (OSX 10.5.5) and I'm wondering how to change the font size and color of my incoming and outgoing mail.
For outgoing email you the Fonts and Colors buttons found in the New Message pane (note that settings you make in Mail > Preferences do not affect outgoing messages).

How can I adjust the font size, etc., when completing a PDF form in Preview?

I would like to use Preview to fill-out or complete a PDF form. The default font that Preview uses when I begin typing in a field is too large. How can I adjust the font size. And while I'm asking, can I also adjust the font color, weight, emphasis, etc.?

Whilst in the Preview application, press "Shift - Command - A" (⇧⌘A) simultaneously to show the markup toolbar, or click View, and select "show markup toolbar". There is an icon "A" near the right hand side of the now visible markup toolbar, click this icon to reveal all the font options.

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.

Apple Mail font size too small for father

My father just purchased a iMac with Mountain Lion OS and a 27 inch screen.
My father needs to be able to read the text of the AppleMail window.
We have increased the size of the fonts to 18 to make it easy for him to see what he is typing in the email editing window, however, none of the other display fonts in AppleMail increase.
The increase in font size is intended by Apple to provide an Accomodation to provide Equal Access for those with Sight Disabilities to the Essential Functions of use, however, this intent appears to have failed within AppleMail.
Would a different mail reader (gmail, etc) provide this font sizing ability?
Requested Remedy:
Provide the ability to increase font size for all of the AppleMail display.

'Preferences' doesn't solve the problem, since it only alters the font size of text for a single message, and doesn't alter the Mailbox Pane or Message Panes.
The Mailbox Pane is enlarged outside Mail, using the System Preference's 'General' setting for Sidebar Icon size - this also alters sidebar text size.
And the Message List is enlarged most easily by a Terminal command
- it's only a single line, cut'n'paste:
defaults write com.apple.mail RichMessageList -bool FALSE
Then restart Mail and adjust its column sizes for the newly enlarged fonts.

How to adjust Lyrics Font Size

I have been using ipod nano and the small font sizes for lyrics are just fine for that small screen. Now I am using ipod video 60GB and find the font sizes on menus and song lists are larger and much easier to read on the larger screen.
The font size of English lyrics are larger than nano and is much more comfortable to view. However the Chinese lyrics no matter "Traditional" or "Simplified" are just way too small to look at and always wasted much of the screen with empty space.
Is there any way that we can adjust the font size of the Chinese lyrics or we just hope that Apple will improve that on their next firmware upgrade.

Adding text to indesign pages with specific font ,size,and color using javascript

Hello,
Using javascript i am able to add some text to each page of an indesign file.
myNewText = "SOME TEXT"
myTextFrame = myPage.textFrames.item(0);
tempframe = myTextFrame.contents;
myTextFrame.contents = myNewText + tempframe ;
But i want to specify the font used,size and color for that text.
When i try the code mentioned in indesign javascript scripting guide
myNewText .appliedFont = app.fonts.item("Times New Roman");
myNewText .fontStyle = "Bold";
nothing gets changed and font family already used stays the same.
How can i do that only for the added text and not for the whole content?I dont want to add the text to a new text frame I want to append it to the existing text frame.
And is there a way to specify font size too?
thank you

There's a mixup going on here. Let's see if we can sort out some of it
at least.
If you just want to add new text to an already existing text frame,
that's easy:
myTextFrame.contents += "Hello";
But if you want the new text to have unique formatting, it's a little
more complicated.
There are two simple ways to do it, I think:
1. Create a temporary text frame, as you have done, and add the text,
and format everything in there. Then move() that formatted text to the
end of myTextFrame and delete the temporary frame:
tempFrame = app.activeDocument.textFrames.add();
tempFrame.contents = "New Text";
tempFrame.paragraphs[0].appliedFont = app.fonts.itemByName("Times New
Roman"); // etc...
tempFrame.paragraphs[0].move(myTextFrame.insertionPoints[-1],
LocationOptions.AFTER);
tempFrame.remove();
2. The other option, is to add the text directly to your textFrame. But
if you want to format only that text, you have to store where the text
started:
myTextFrame = app.selection[0];
firstInsertionPoint = myTextFrame.insertionPoints[-1].index;
myTextFrame.contents += "New Text";
myAddedText =
myTextFrame.characters.itemByRange(myTextFrame.insertionPoints[firstInsertionPoint],
myTextFrame.insertionPoints[-1]);
myAddedText.appliedFont = app.fonts.itemByName("Trajan Pro"); // etc.
What you've done in your sample script, however, is to try to apply a
font to a simple JavaScript string. It won't work, but the way you did
it, it won't throw an error either, because in fact you've created a new
property of your string. (myString = "Hello"; myString.appliedFont =
"Times"; // myString now has a Javascript property called appliedFont --
but that's nothing to do with InDesign!)
HTH,
Ariel
