Increasing the size of designated text area in a photo book

I am using IPhoto version 9.5.1 on a MacBook Pro (10.9.2). I am trying to increase the designated text area so that I can increase the font size. This will allow for the final product to be more legible. Currently, I am featuring a student per page. The designated text areas are 4 separate sections on these pages.  I would like to include on each page the following.
Aviator
Person's Name
Algebra I
Homecoming Dance
When I increase the font size in those 4 designated areas, the red caution triangle with exclamation point states, 'This text doesn't fit the designated text area!' 
I have two questions.
1. How do I increase the text area so the larger text will fit and print properly?
2. Is there an overall command that I can input these increases to the text area so that the 36 papes have the same changes in the designated text areas? Otherwise, I will have to make those changes for each individual pages that are featuring a student.

You can "adjust" a photo frame or text box size on a page with the following key combinations:
Command + Option +⬆arrow:  increase frame height.
Command + Option +⬇arrow:  decrease frame height.
Command + Option + ➜ arrow:  increase frame width.
Command + Option + ⬅ arrow:  decrease frame width.
To adjust its position on the page use these key combinations:
Command + Control + ➜ arrow:  move frame to right.
Command + Control + ⬅  arrow:  move frame to left.
Command + Control + ⬆ arrow:  rotate frame counter clockwise.
Command + Control + ⬇ arrow:  rotate frame clockwise.
You can conver the standard frame (on the left) to this one (on the right)
Always be sure to create a PDF file of the book for proofing before ordering a book. This Apple document describes how to create the PDF file: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture. Keep the PDF file to compare it with the printed copy when it arrives.
If you have Pages you can easily create custom book pages as images and add them to a 1 photo per page layout by following this tutorial: iP11 - Creating a Custom Page, with the Theme's Background for an iPhoto Book

  • Is it possible to change the size of a text box on a photo book page

    I am a first-time user of the photo book application in iPhoto. I am wondering if it is possible to:
    1. change the size of a text box
    2. have more than one text box on a page
    3. move the text box around.
    Thanks, in advance, for any suggestions someone might have.

  • HT2523 Is there a way to increase the size of textedit text on the screen without increasing the font size? (as can be done in WORD for MAC)

    In Microsoft Office for Mac WORD I can make text appear larger on the monitor screen without increasing the font size for printing purposes.  I have not been able to figure out if/how this can be done in TextEdit.  In TextEdit, if I set the font size to between 10 and 12, the text appears very small on the screen.  But if I increase the font size, the font size will be way too large when I print such a document.

    Thank you very much for your prompt reply and suggestion. 
    Actually after I posted my question, I saw link to Text Edit viewable font, which pointed out the small up and down arrows in the lower right corner of the Text Edit screen. 
    However, it is also good to keep in mind the Universal Access options.

  • Help with changing the size of a text area

    hi. i have a a couple of text areas lined up vertically in a <Vgroup>. each text area is populated with data from xml. but sometimes there isn't much data for a particular text area and i'd like to reduce the number of rows on the text area so there isn't so much blank space. just not sure best way to go about it. any suggestions would be great. cheers.

    Try the following code.
    <s:TextArea
         id="ta"
         updateComplete="{ ta.height = ta.scroller.viewport.contentHeight + 2 }"; />

  • How to increase the size of text boxes in FCPX without stretching the text inside?

    How to increase the size of text boxes in FCPX without stretching the text inside?

    There are two basic Title formats — I should say Layouts — available:  Text (plain) and Paragraph.  (The plain text version usually does not appear with the blue dot controls — those generally appear for the paragraph type control.)
    If the Title is using a Paragraph layout, it's like having a mini version of Text Edit available inside FCPX. You can tell when you click on the text (when the title is selected) -- a rectangle will appear around the text like so:
    double clicking on the text will give you the bounds controls which you can use to redefine the text area without distorting the text. Once selected, notice the button that appears in the top right corner of the canvas:
    Pressing that will activate the ruler. You can right click on the ruler and add Tab Stops (left, right, center and decimal.)
    So if the title uses paragraph formatting, you can create a very WYSIWYG type of display text (use the Text inspector to alter text selections within the paragraph bounds.)

    I am having difficulty including text with iPhotos I want to share through email.  I get a red exclamation mark along with a statement stating that the text doesn't fit into the designated text area.  This is so frustrating. Before iLire11 I was easily able to share photos with email messages.  Arghhhh!

    In the iPhoto preferences you can set Apple Mail as your e-mail client and then it will work exactly as before

  • How do I increase the size of the text on the toolbar?

    How do I increase the size of the toolbar text, please?  For some reason, it's now very tiny, and everything I do only increases the font size of whichever web sites I access (which is not what I'm wanting to accomplish). 
    Thanks in advance for any help in this. Actually, I'm wondering what I might have done that would make the toolbar so tiny?

    Do  you mean the menu bar at the very top of your screen?
    If so, open System Preferences > Displays > Display > Scaled
    Try a different resolution.

    babowa wrote:
    The only way to increase the fonts on your desktop would be system wide by going down a notch on the resolution. Some people won't do it because it increases the pixel size so the fonts won't be quite as sharp; I decided I'd rather have that than having to squint continuously. Go to System Preferences > Displays > Scaled > this will give you all resolution options available. No harm in trying - just check the default (top) choice again if you don't like any of the others.
    It's a b*&^ch getting old .  I still use the screen zoom instead of decreasing resolution, but maybe soon ...

  • How can I set timings to increase the size of an image in a Keynote presentation?

    I know how to use inspector to bring in and fade out text boxes, but at the end of a slide I have a graphic (that is at the bottom of the slide during the rest of the slide) that I want to increase the size of to take up the entire slide.  How can I do this?
    Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The effect you're looking for is 'Scale'
    In Keynote '09, 5.1.1 select the graphic.
    Click Inspector in the tool bar, Build Inspector (3rd icon from the left), (Build In and Build Out are both set to None for this step) Effect, Action, and then Scale.
    It rescales ('zooms') the selected item (image) up or down from 0% to 200%
    Clicking on the More Options button at the bottom opens a drawer to the left, and gives you more control over how the build occurs, whether they happen automatically, timed, or when you click, and re-order build steps.
    At 200%, double the original size, resolution could be a problem. There is a workaround, because it also scales smaller, down to 0%. So I would scale the graphic down 'small' as the first step to fit at the bottom, (even hide it behind a background-colored box) as you scale it down, and then at the end, scale up to full size to fill the screen at 'normal' resolution.
    In the attached example, I use a 'scale' up to go from 100% to 130% on a map, and use arrows and a flashing line to point out the road where a specific business is located with 12 steps. Some elements in my slides have been intentionally obscured. For simplicity, I've eliminated showing any steps but the initial title and the scale.

  • How to increase the size of piechart in ssrs?

    Hi how to increase the size of piechart in my design mode its showing very large one,when running/preview mode its displaying very small, i have total 10 values to dispaly in the legend series values,So here i have set the visibulity option to out side ,
    so if the pie chart is dispalying small ,the values of the legend will come in one place and ,so can you suggest me how to increase the size of my chart and how would i show my legend values separatly without closing one by one.
    Can some one please help me out for this..

    Hi Ychinnari,
    According to your description that you want increase the size of pie chart in the design mode to make all the ten values in the legend series to display, you have do some setting but the pie chart still display very small and not display some of the
    values, right?
    I have tested on my local environment and found that the display of the chart legend value can be effect by many factor: the size of the chart, chart area position and chart legend position.
    Details steps below for your reference about how to set the properties to make all the legend values display correctly:
    Select the Chart properties and expand the size and increase the values for the width and the height, then preview to see if all the legend values are display.
    If this do little help, the problem due to the chart area position and chart legend position need to reset too.
    Select the chart area properties and expand the CustomPosition under the Position, choose the Enabled to true and  reset the Width, height of the pie chart.
    Reset this properties to make the chart area more Narrow, thus we can set the Legend area more wider.
    Select the chart Legend properties and expand the CustomPosition under the Position, choose the Enabled to true to reset the Width, height of the chart Legend
    Reset this properties to make the Legend area more bigger (wider and higher) thus it will display more values in the Legend area.
    If your problem still exists, please feel free to ask.

  • How to increase the size of the exported dashboard in powerpoint

    When I am trying to increase the size of the dashboard in the powerpoint then the fields are overlapping in the powerpoint slide.
    Actually in the preview the size of the fields is clear and font is visible. But in the ppt if the report size is not increased then the font is not clear, and when increasing the report in the ppt  then the fields are overlapping.
    How to resolve?
    Thanks in advance

    Siva,
    This is very common issue.
    Try increasing the font size and align your components in design mode, and try resizing the dashboard in ppt as well.
    Hope this helps...
