Firefox and fraction font sizes

Today I was experimenting with GTK font sizes, and noticed that my new least-favorite app doesn't even handle that correctly.
Check this out:
Exhibit A: GTK font size 7
Exhibit B: GTK font size 7.5
Notice how the font in Thunar's menu changed and Firefox's didn't? Through testing 7.9 as a font size I came to the conclusion that it isn't even rounding to the nearest integer, just outright ignoring the decimals.
Is there a solution for this?

Yes, but you won't like it. Crack open your UserChrome.css file (in ~/.mozilla/firefox/<garbage>.default/chrome/) and do something like this:
.chromeclass-menubar {
font-size: 10pt !important;
EDIT: To set the default font size for everything (not just the menu bar), use "*" instead of ".chromeclass-menubar".

I have iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

Hi, I have the iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

Hello Glittergirl68,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the function to reseize the Font in an iBook is not functioning properly.
I recommend a few things here. First close all the apps that are running in the background:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
From: iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
When you have done that, restart the phone, and try again.
If the issue persists, I would follow these steps from the article:
iOS: Troubleshooting apps purchased from the App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
2. Check for app updates
You can setup apps to update automatically in Settings > iTunes & App Store, but make sure that your apps are up to date:
Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
If prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the app updates.
Note: Some apps may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You can also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.
4. Restart the app
If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app.
5. Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.
6. Reinstall the affected app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it:
Tap and hold any app icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle and show a small "x" in the top-right corner of the app.
Tap the "x" in the corner of the app you want to delete.
Tap Delete to remove the app and all of its data from your device.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store.
Search for the app and then download it again.
All the very best,
Sterling

Why Acrobat x professional is changing the text formatting specifically the font family and the font size of the text in my pdf on exporting it to Microsoft word file format ?How should i stop Acrobat x professional from doing that so that i get an exactly same word file on exporting it from its pdf counterpart?

I was testing the preciseness & efficiency of Adobe acrobat x professional's doc conversion capabilities. As i have to take a document editing project in future which is going to need lot of pdf to word and vice versa conversions . What I did was I created a test word document converted into a pdf using a pdf maker in my word 2007 , Acrobat did convert the document from word to pdf keeping everything in the source file intact , However when i tried the other way round and attempted to convert the same pdf to word 2007 file format I lost my formatting ?So the font that I used to create the pdf are the ones taken from word 2007 which i believe is using the fonts that are installed in my computer. Any suggestions on how to preserve the formatting of the document after converting it from pdf to word file format?
Regards
Mike

Firefox reduces the font sizes on Yahoo mail to a very small unreadable font size and i have tried the suggestions in help. Explorer does not do this. What should i try other than using Explorer

This problem started about two months ago and I have been using Explorer to access e-mail. I have downloaded all updates and just downloaded 4.01. When trying to view Yahoo mail, all the fonts on the page are very small and I can not adjust the font size. It is so small I can hardly read it. Other pages are fine.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

After updating to Firefox 4, the font size in my gmails are smaller. I need to get the larger size back. How?

On both the listing of gmails and the size of the font when gmails are opened, the font size is smaller than prior to upgrading to Firefox 4. I did not change any settings. I cannot see where I can change this back to larger fonts. Help?

The page may have been zoomed out. With Gmail on display try using the keyboard shortcut Control+0 (zero) to reset page zoom.

[SOLVED] Firefox and bad fonts

I would like to start using Firefox and its excellent plugins, but the only thing that prevents me are the fonts. They seem plain evil!
They are fuzzy and somehow too large and CTRL++ or CTRL+- won't help with the look. Take a loot at these:
Firefox: fonts are fuzzy and some characters are looking like painted - see the copyright sign for example! :evil: Also the distance between different characters in a word doesnt seem to be equal all the times and that makes it hard to grasp the word.
Mozilla Suite: crisp and clear
I think it is somehow xft - related, because I downloaded the standard Mozilla suite build and it also had these awful fonts and then tried the non-xft build and fonts were ok. In Appearance-Fonts they are described as Serif -> adobe-times-iso8859-1, Sans-serif -> adobe-helvetica-iso8859-1 and so on. How could I get these fonts appear in Firefox, too?
I have tried to compile Firefox myself with disable-xft option, but it fails with an error about gtk not being found in pkgconfig path.

What you call "crisp", I just call "aliased". The fonts in Opera are also aliased, which makes them look poor. Your Firefox's fonts look nice, except the fact that the autohinter is making them look sloppy. Comment that part out and see how it looks.

Custom OBIEE Subtotal and Total Font Size

Hello all
Im trying to customize the font size of the subtotal or total row
I was able to find the following and it got me half way there
http://obieexpertise.blogspot.ca/2010/05/customize-format-of-subtotal-cells.html
BUT the issue I have now is that while the the total values are now increased in font size, the name of the row is not increased
So for example
Change Total 1000
The 1000 has increased in font size, but how do i get the "Change total" to increase in size?
Edited by: chillychin on May 9, 2013 2:02 PM

In Pivot table Rows section on column->Sigma icon->Format Labels... or Format Values
are not helping you?
The same for Table view too, this would be simplest one.

Point and Pixel font sizes

I'm working on a website for the first time (always been print-only) and I've done the design rough in Illustrator.
I've been working with fonts sized in points, but from my understanding I need to be working in pixels?
When changing the font size from points to pixels in Preferences > Units, my 10pt font shows as 10px fonts. As far as I understand this is not correct? Is it correct and why; and how do I ensure my fonts are the right size for screen?

When changing the font size from points to pixels in Preferences > Units, my 10pt font shows as 10px fonts. As far as I understand this is not correct?
When Illustrator uses "pixels" as a unit of measure (which it is not), it is really using points. All of Illustrator's underlying measures are in points (1/72 inch).
I'm not sure what you're struggling with re webpages; but you can code text size in XHTML / CSS as pixels or points or as percentages.

I would like to know how to increase the window size and message font size on the the Three Button Dialog.vi

I like using the Three Button Dialog .vi. However, I am doing a job were I need to use a larger font size. I tried to adjust the core vi but could not make it do what I wanted. Any help would be great.

Jeff Bohrer wrote:
1: VI Properties Window Size- Check maintain proportions of window for different monitor resolutions. (Your users will thank you)
Jeff,
Why do you think that is a good idea? When I opened your VI on my screen, the buttons were cut off at the bottom, and there was a slight cutoff on the right side. Without scrollbars or the ability to resize the panel, (which I generally wouldn't want on a dialog box anyway) there is no way to be able to see the whole dialog.
Did your VI show all of the buttons and show all of the text box? On mine it looked like this.
What was your screen resolution and your monitor aspect ratio? Mine is 1680 x 1050 for a 16:10 ratio. I think you will have problems with checking this box. I would recommend unchecking it. Suppose you programmed on a 16:10 screen, but someone else has a 16:9, or even a 4:3. That is going to screw up the appearance of the dialog unless you take the time to resize the buttons and text inside the dialog. (And I feel checking the resize option inside the Window Appearance settings just never works right either.)
If I was the user, I'd appreciate a dialog box that wasn't cut off.

Clear Ruby and Kenten Font Size[JS CS4]

Hi.
In my IDML exports I am seeing spurious Ruby & Kenten Font sizes set (on English text). These cause a problem for us as they are breaking up runs of text pre-translation. I need to write a script which can clear these attributes, but I cannot find them in the Object Model.
Can someone help?
Thanks

You could try creating a style without attribute and use Replace.

Window Maximizing and Safari font size

I have a 13 inch Macbook. Why can't I completely open the safari window, or any window for that matter?
The font on web pages ar so small, I can hardly read. I tried changing the display setting but it just made the window display kind of grainy. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Try holding down command and hit + a couple times. You can reverse this by holding command and hitting - a few times.

How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?

How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
With regard to font size,
1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
Can any of you Help?!?

Maybe this extension helps:

A mode to change font size and bold in every page?

Due to problems described here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1012057?esab=a&s=&r=0&as=s I have clear that I need something (an extension, maybe) that allow me to recognize and change font size and bold of the fonts in every page.
Does exist something like this?
Maybe also for bookmarks toolbar...

Hi RichterB,
You can change this in the Content Settings of Firefox. Go to "3 bar" menu and click on Options. Click on content and uncheck "Let websites choose their own styles" and select a bold font type.
Also try [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/ Sytlish].

Font Size Larger in Firefox :(

Hey
I have designed a site and the font size is larger in Firefox
than it is in Internet Explorer.
Here's the site:
Click here for link
I have searched everywhere through google to find answers but
none worked. Does it have something to do with font requirements in
Firefox? Or in CSS I have to use an: important! tag?
Any help much appreciated!

Looks the same to me. My guess is that you just have your
default font size
preference increased in Firefox.
Remember, end users can change the font sizes regardless of
what you spec.
Overall, your site seems to handle font size increasing just
fine so I
woudlnt' worry too much about it.

You will need the web browser Firefox installed
http://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-6.0.2&os=osx&lang=en-US
Next you will need to add the following addons
Theme Font & Size Changer
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer/
NoSquint
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
Theme Font & Size Changer can adjust the size of the type Firefox uses in the toolbar area.
NoSquint remembers per site web page zoom levels and you can set a minimum size for all web pages so any site you visit is made bigger automatically. Safari doesn't do this.
You can see the difference between Firefox and Safari in this picture.
Note: Firefox is highly customizable browser, and I added the green with the yellow type, you won't see that when you first start using it.
It did that to match my desktop picture, grey is depresssing.
