I have set text size to Auto but it starts too small

I have created a form in Acrobat Pro 9, and set text size to Auto in all fields.
I know it is limited to the height of the field, but  one of the fields is a block for multi-line paragraghs.  Size is set to Auto, font to Times Roman.  When I open the file in Reader to test it, it looks like it's starting at 12 points.  It goes down from there as the whole block is filled with text, but I'd like it to start at around 18. 
Advice?

as I mentioned, this one field is a block for multi-line paragraghs.  It's one, large text block, taking up the bottom half of the form, so that users can input multiple paragraphs of text (they're telling their story).  Some people will write a lot, some less.  That's why I set it to Auto, so that the shorter stories would be in larger text, but longer stories will still shrink to fit.
It works, but I want to know if their is a way to get the text to start out at a larger font size before auto-sizing-to-fit.  I mean, Something is telling the font to start at 12 point...
Should I attach the form to this discussion?  (How do I do that?)

    My iphone does not connect to my email provider and fetch my email.  I have been getting emall ok previously, this occurred when I changed my password on my email account. I have "set up a new account" but get the message "server is unavailable". I have tried several things but to no avail. Does anyone have the solution?
    Thanks

    Did you ever fix this problem? The same thing happened when I just changed my kids passwords and now can't access their mail on their iPods or my iPad but I use the same email provider and mine is fine however I did not change my password.  If you fixed it how did you?

  • The font size in the menu bar is too small (unreadable). How can I increase font size. I have a new Samsung PC with high resolution screen.

    Hi the fnt size in the menu bar is too small (unreadable). How can I increase the font size. I have a new Samsung PC with high resolution screen.

    You must mean Photoshop Elements 11, not Photoshop.
    There is no ability to change the size of the menu font in PSE 11.
    note to mod:
    Please move to the Photoshop Elements forum.

  • [AA7+] [Windows] Set default text size for "auto" setting...

    Good morning:
    I was wondering if it is possible to set the default font size or specify a maximum font size
    for the auto setting of the font size on a text field when using the auto setting?
    Currently, if the font size is set to "auto" it defaults to 12 pt. text if multiline is checked on the Options tab.
    If multiline is not checked on the Options tab, the font size will adjust to the height of the box.
    I would like to have the multiline checked, specify "auto" for the font size, but have the auto font size be no larger than 8 pts.
    It can go smaller than 8 pts. if there is too much text in the field, but should not be larger than 8 pts. because the other form fields are in 8 pt.
    If someone has any suggestions on how to achieve this, I would be most appreciative.
    Thanks!
    Theresa

    Thanks Jongware!
    I'm aware of the many different forums and I thought I was posting it in the Acrobat Scripting forum.
    That'll teach me to look where I post. I guess I'm the one that needs the glasses.
    Take care!

  • HT2500 How do I set text size when I am composing a mail?

    When composing an E Mail using Mail how do I set the viewable text size. It always starts up very small even though preferences have been set to 12 pt or larger. 'cmd +' does not alter the view sizing either.

  • I have set up a file share but cannot login with my account

    Hi everyone. I set up a file share using the settings in OS 10.5, however when I go to login on Windows Vista using my specially created read only account (called: remote). I cannot get it.
    I can only get in using these settings:
    user name = xxx.xxx.x.xxx\myaccount
    password = blah blah blah.
    Yet when I apply the same settings changing 'myaccount' to 'remote', I cannot get in.
    I'm not sure where I am going wrong, any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    No need to apologise, I'm the idiot who can't setup a home network. Although I'm sure Vista is at least to blame somehow.
    I have sharing turned on and it says "Windows users can access your computer at smb://192.168.x.xxx."
    If I click "options" it has a box which has an "on" tick box and my name. I have ticked it. When I ticked it, it asked for my admin password which I supplied.
    On the firewall front I have allow all incoming connections.
    I am trying to login to 'remote' whilst my Mac is still logged in as me, 'nathan' I have successfully logged in to the mac on the same settings using account: 'nathan' on Vista whilst still in 'nathan' on the mac.
    I am trying to connect going into network on vista and selecting my mac, correct.
    The connect works with 'nathan' if I go:
    192.168.x.xxx\nathan
    password
    but for some reason the 'remote' user I have set up wont work on vista using the same format.
    Thanks.

  • How to set text size when printi from a web page

    can't increase text size when printing a web page

    If you're using IE, click on View, Text Size and then whatever size you'd like.  You'll see the changes on the screen and it should print out the same way.
    Hope that helps.

  • I don't have a question so much as a comment for APPLE. I am a new iPhone 5s user and it has many things I like but It is too small and I can only talk on the phone and use the internet if i am in a position to use a wifi connection and that is not good

    I am a new iPhone 5s user. I like many of the features it offers. I don't like that I cannot talk and use the internet (if I am away from WI-FI) and this phone is too small. I am actually thinking of returning it and going back to an Android. After all the hassle it took to get all my stuff working on this phone , it may be worth the switch. This phone needs to be able to multitask freely in this day and age. Also Safari is not the best search engine but I could work with it if I could talk and use it at the same time. I use my phone for business and this is a feature that is needed in my line of work.

    I understand that the OP failed to do research. But then, I wasn't replying to the OP. I was replying to Chris. I have Verizon. I can talk and use data at the same time with my Droid Maxx. Therefore, the problem is not just with the network. It would be technically possible for an iPhone to do that on Verizon/Sprint if Apple had chosen to use a different chip, such as the kind other phone manufacturers have elected to use.
    Of course, this is probably all irrelevant to the OP's issue. It was merely a point of clarification, especially for those people who are used to being able to use both voice and data at the same time on Verizon. When they switch to an iPhone, they are often surprized at the limitation.
    Best of luck.

  • I cannot read screen text in Lightroom 5. It is too small.

    I just installed Lightroom 5.3 on my 27" iMac [14,2 OSX 10.9.1]  My eyes are usually about 32" from the screen.
    Upon installation, I attempted with and without my glasses. I can't read the screen.
    I increased the font size. There are only two options, small and large. Large is about 1 point larger. Thanks a bunch.
    My vision isn't bad. I don't have trouble taking photos with my dozen-or-so cameras. I don't have trouble using any software. I spend hours every day in front of this computer and have no trouble at all using anything. Until now.
    I have been using Adobe products for over 20 years. This is a first for the industry leader in text & print related software.
    Is there another option for making the text readable? Accessability Options on the Mac turns out to be no help. Its for BLIND PEOPLE, which I am not. If my whole computer had no functionality because I could not see, Accessability Options might help. But then I wouldn't have bought a 27" iMac for photo editing if I couldn't see. Anyway, I shouldn't have to sacrifice any functionality on my machine to accomodate an Adobe product. I pay Adobe for functionality. I don't owe Adobe any favors.
    I searched user forums. This issue has been brought up before. There were no answers. Is there no way to resolve the unreadability issue? Are your developers 15 year olds with 640x480 monitors? Maybe adults should look at the screen before you release this stuff?
    Kind of angry.

  • How can I get text printed out larger? It prints too small to read.

    I have an hp psc 1610 all-in-one printer. When I print articles from the internet the text is too small. The options to change size only seem to affect the screen size, not the printer size. It prints fine in my word processor, etc.

    File > Page Setup > '''Scale''' <br />
    100% or Shrink to Fit is usually the best.

  • Ntp service depends on dns but is started too soon

    Given servers defined in /etc/inet/ntp.conf, the service starts interactively (svcadm enable ntp) with an initial ntpdate call to set the clock.
    However, this fails on boot up as the servers are not found unless defined in /etc/inet/hosts. As a consequence, there can be a significant initial offset from the RTC, which corrupts the clock drift value and takes hours longer to stabilise.
    This implies that the ntp service is being started too soon before dns whereas it should be started after dns.

    I would check to see if this is still true in the most recent releases of Solaris Express. If it is, you can log a bug about it.
    For your existing machines, you could probably create a dependency on milestone/name-services for the ntp service and see if that fixes it.

  • Setting text size in Photoshop script doesn't seem to work

    I have written a script and used it for several years to take metadata and place it on a PSD file as a layer as 12 point text.
    This script runs fine on my main desktop computer running Win7 and Photoshop CS 6.
    I moved the script to my laptop running Win 8.1 and Photoshop CC 2014 (latest updates applied).
    When the script hits the line:
    TextRef.size = new UnitValue(12,'pt');
    the "size" value does not change3.  I set a breakpoint and traced the code leading up to the like and the TextRef.size value in the data browser is "2.88px" before and after the line is executed.  The resulting text is placed in the text layer as a 2.88 point font (i.e. "squint-font") rather than the 12 point font desired.
    It is the *exact* script on both computers and runs perfect on one and seems to skip the line of code.  I checked that the Units and Rulers preferences are the same on both systems.
    I am stumped.  Can anyone help point me a further direction to look at this?
    Thank you!
    -Mike

    If finally found references to this problem as something others have found in CC+.  I have tried some of the suggested functions to work around the problem, but I get errors that some of the requested calls are not supported in in this version of PS.  You read more on this thread: Did CC 2014.2 break textItem.size?
    I am going to dust off an old laptop with CS6 on it and use it until this problem is fix in CC.
    Ugh...
