Maintaining Font Size

Is there a way to maintain text size even if a viewer changes
the text size view in, say, IE. In the site below
http://www.cbrc.us
the formatting of the Navigation Box below the masthead gets
messed up when the text size view changes in a browser.
Thanks, -Pai

Well, I'm not willing to take that approach to my sites,
simply because I
know that not everyone uses IE - there are many Safari users
out there,
nevermind the Firefox, etc., ones.

How do I increase the font size in my email and maintain resolution.

Hi folks. Mr Newbie is seeking some help, I hope it is relatively straight forward, thanks
How do I increase the font size in my standard email and document views without losing resolution. Right now my font size in email, headers and text is less than that on my iPhone, it rather defeats the point of having a 27" screen if most of it is blank and I have to sit with my nose to the screen to read email. Thanks for your help, once you have stopped laughing. C

Two things you can do to easily aid with readability in Mail are as follows:
1) Increase the size of folders in the sidebar:
a) select "system preferences" from the Apple menu
b) select "general settings"
c) select small, medium or large under "sidebar icon size"
2) Increase the text in the main body of the email (both sent and received):
a) select "preferences" from the Mail menu
b) select "fonts and colors"
c) adjust font size for "message list font" and "message font". I have noticed this works properly while in classic mode, but in regular mode the message list font doesn't appear to change size.
Select classic mode by accessing Mail preferences and selecting the "viewing" tab.
Another shortcut is to right click on the toolbar, then select "customize toolbar", and then drag the "smaller / bigger" buttons onto the toolbar. Now you can decrease and increase font size as desired on the fly.

Maintaining Fixed Font Size Across Websites?

I find that there seems to many widths employed for web pages, with concomitantly different font sizes.
I am readily able to compensate by adjusting the width of each page by using +Command plus/minus+
Once I've adjusted a web page to a suitable width, is there any means to make that adjustment stick for whenever that page may be subsequently re-accessed?

Right now that field remains unchecked. I'm mulling over whether this would be helpful.
Since your main complaint seemed to be font size, I'm not sure how it wouldn't be. I use that setting on my 17" MacBook Pro and never have a problem with sites using too small a font. If font size is not the issue, you need to clarify.
What I'd really like is to achieve a fixed page width for each site that I frequent.
Why? That wouldn't affect font size, and would probably mess up the appearance of many sites that use fixed widths. It is conceivably possible, maybe, with the right CSS code added to Safari using Safari -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Style Sheet. But that wouldn't affect font size.

Font Size is not correct in the exported PDF-File

In the Report is the Font Arial Size 8, but in the exported PDF-Fildethe size is only 7,15. The Fontsize in the PDF-File is always smaller then in the Report.
I use Crystal Report XI. With Version 9 is everythink ok.

In Crystal Reports 10 and 11, exported fonts are shrunk by 5% to avoid field truncation.
For version 11, create the following registry entry and then set the value to 1 to maintain the font size:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\Export\PDF\ForceLargerFonts
Please back-up your registry before editing.
Cheers,
Fritz

Can we change font size and font type in reports

Hi All Technical/Functional Masters,
We are developing some transactional reports in ISU. this report has 20 columns to be printed. On screen, display is not a problem but client has a requirement to download this report in PDF format and wants to print on A4-paper in Landscape. Although we have managed to accommodate all the columns on A4 paper but have to compromise with font size that are very small and not visible. If we download the report in excel format we are able to maintain the font size 8 and accommodate all columns after little format but same in PDF is a problem.
Can anyone tell whether we can increase the font size and change font type(from SAP standard to 'Arial') before sending the output in PDF ? Is there any property or utility that can be changed or used for this purpose.

Smartforms-Dynamic Change of Font Size in main window

Hi Friends,
How shall I be able to change dynamically the font size in main window of smartform. If the records are more in main window then the layout comes in 2 pages but if less in 1 page. So I want to decrease the font if the records are more to assign it in 1 page.
Eg : I can print only 10 lines in 1 page of main window, but if the records exceed 10 lines it is going to next page, so I want to shrink the font size to maintain the layout in 1 page.
Thanks & Regards,
Somen

Hi,
SmartForms does not offer the option to set some characteristics at runtime. You must work with conditions in your form.
First find out how many records you have in your table
DESCRIBE TABLE mytable RECORDS sy-tfill.
You create 2 texts nodes with the text to be output and assign the font and font size to them. Obviouly, one node will have a big font size and the other one a normal font size but both contain the same information and same variables.
You can now work with an alternative. If the condition (there are many records for a secondpage) is true, assign text node with normal font size to option TRUE and the other text node to FALSE.
Optionally, every text node has folder CONDITIONS, where you can say
SY-TFILL > 10 lines <-- for text node with normal font size
SY-TFILL <= 10 lines <-- for text node with big font size

App. Express -- Change font size in the item label.

I would like to size the item label so I did this and it did not work
in the label I put <span style="font-size:12px;">ITEM 1</span> and
<span style="font-weight:bold;">ITEM 1</span>
What wrong?

Hello,
The basic “trick” here is to duplicate the proper label template (you can of course change the original label template, but that’s less advisable) in order to add an ID to the text/link part.
In my example, the template is base on the “Optional Label with Help” template, and the “Before Label” field contains the following:
<label for="#CURRENT_ITEM_NAME#" tabindex="999"><a class="t2OptionalwithHelp" id="L_#CURRENT_ITEM_NAME#" href="javascript:popupFieldHelp('#CURRENT_ITEM_ID#','&SESSION.')" tabindex="999">In order to maintain ID uniqueness, the new ID just adds “L_” to the item name.
Now I have direct access to the text/link, and I can manipulate it using JavaScript. In the example, I added the following to the region footer:
<script type="text/javascript">
$x('L_P160_ITEM2').style.fontSize = '20px';
$x('L_P160_ITEM3').style.fontSize = '30px';
$x('L_P160_ITEM3').style.color = 'green';
</script>Regards,
Arie.
Hi Carl,
As usual I was busy typing and didn’t see your reply. I agree that a specific example would be the best and easiest way to help.

Why does some published text maintain font/format randomly on a page?

I'm pretty good with this stuff but can't figure this one out: When designing 1-word links on any given page, all using the same font/size, all in a vertical list, for no apparent reason some of the text/links, when published, maintain the font/format precisely, while some do not and by default choose a "similar" font? I've been forced to create picture files of individual links to maintain their look, thereby losing the roll-over and re-size capacity.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Does anyone have an answer for this? I'm stuck too. I make a beautiful looking web page in iweb 8.0, only to find that fonts have changed, sizes have changed etc when I go to publish. Need help!

Font Size for Dropdown List Box

Hi All,
We are in ECC 6.0 with Integrated ITS. We have a 'Z' EWT transaction with a corresponding service maintained in SICF being executed via ITS and/or Portals.
The problem is that the font sizes for the dropdown list values for all these input fields are very small. The same transaction when run in ECC has no such font issues.
Does anyone have any idea of why that is happening and if the font sizes for these dropdown list fields can be changed or not?
Thanks in Advance

Hello Shounak,
If this is in Portals then you may be able to change the size of the font through the Portal Theme Generator.

Scale grouped objects with preserving font size

Hallo!
I wonder whether this is possible. I would like to have two objects grouped - a square and a text, let's say at the top left corner within the square. Now i would like to "lock" the font size to 12pt. Whenever I scale and move the square, the font size remains at 12pt and is located at the top left corner within the square. Can I do this?
Thanks,
Ralph

ALWAYS state WHAT VERSION of Illustrator you are using.
Illustrator still does not provide any kind of dynamic object-connection features (connector lines, callouts, dimensions, etc.) like most decent drawing programs have for many years.
If the rectangle and text were truly all you wanted, you could do that by simply making the text object a so-called AreaType object, and giving its frame path the stroke/fill desired. You could then simply set the AreaType Options to control placement of the text inside its frame path and scale the object at will by its bounding box handles.
But I assume you really want more than that: You want the text object to be contained within any arbitrary multi-object group, and be able to scale the group without also scaling the text, yet retain the text object's alignment relative to a corner of the rest of the group. You could devise an awkward workaround for that, using so-called Isolation Mode. The following assumes a version recent enough to have Isolation Mode:
1. Assume a Group containing a Rectangle, a triangle, and a text object. The Rectangle's bounds define the Group's bounds at the corner to which you want to maintain relative positioning of the text object when scaling the Group.
1. DoubleClick the Group to put it in Isolation Mode.
2. Select All. Deselect the text object.
3. Group. Send to Back. Now you have a Group nested inside another Group. The outer Group contains the inner Group and the textFrame. The textFrame is not part of the inner Group.
4. DoubleClick outside the artwork to exit Isolation Mode.
5. Now assume you want to scale everything other than the text, and you want to maintain the position of the text relative to the upper-left corner.
6. DoubleClick the Group to put it in Isolation Mode.
7. Scale the inner Group by dragging (or ShiftDragging) its lower right bounding box handle.
8. DoubleClick outside the artwork to exit Isolation Mode.
In pre-Isolation Mode versions, the same thing can be done by using the cumbersome Group Selection Tool to "drill up" to the inner group's level.

Reset textarea height while increasing font size

Hi all,
I am using text area. While increasing font size it is not resizing.
canvasText = new TextArea();
_canvasText.height = _canvasText.textHeight + _canvasText.getLineMetrics(0).height;
i am using this code to calculate height of text area.
Its working while i input the text. but while increasing font size it maintains old value. Again when i input text it calculates new one.
Please any one can suggest me solution.
Thanks in advance,
-CK

textArea doesn't measure its content. You can subclass and add code that does.

Font size changes in emails for mac to windows

When I send an email from my Mac using Microsoft Outlook 2011 the font size changes when sent to a Windows computer. Some of the email is ok and then some lines of text are in a larger font size. How do I maintain consistency in font sizes from Mac to
PC with Windows? I send all emails using HTML formatting. Thanks!

Hi,
This is a known issue when sending emails from Outlook for Mac to Outlook for Windows. This is caused by the pixel-to-point or point-to-pixel conversion that happens between the Mac and Windows operating systems. See:

Aperture Inspectors - increase font size?

Hi
I just tidied up my various folders and so on that had got a wee bit messy with a fair amount of work recently.
My eyes not being quite what they used to be, I could not help but think how much easier it would be if I could increase the font size on all the project and file labels.
Is it possible to do that?

In addition to Frank's suggestions:
Experiment with turning off font smoothing with fonts below a set size. This helps some, and galls others. The setting is at "System Preferences→Appearance".
There are other zooming tools in addition to the "scroll to zoom". These are set at "System Preferences→Univarsal Access→Zoom→Options".
You might consider running your display at a smaller resolution (this will make the system fonts render larger). "System Preferences→Display".
If you are still unsatisfied, you probably can find a third-party utility to change the system font settings. (TinkerTool used to do this.) I advise against it, as it almost always leads to unintended consequences, and in addition is difficult to maintain through the many updates and upgrades.
You could make a feature request of Apple, via "Aperture→Provide Aperture Feedback". Even a "Small, Medium, Large" might be useful in the Library pane of the Inspector.
I use work bifocals with the "reading" lenses set specifically to the distance of a computer screen. Invaluable, imho.

Closed caption font size

I guess asking for beautiful fonts like those avaiable on DirecTV (as early as 3 years ago) is too much. Just a simple request, please please solve the issue that all fonts are stretched wide on the new 1.9 system, on a 16:9 TV.
Even with small font size, the characters are so stretched that they take almost 1/4 of the screen, and they do look UGLY. And why it's always all capitals?

Contrasting the background with the text is key for people with visual impairments. Also making the text large enough to read while maintaining space on the canvas is always a challenge. Displaying 2-3 lines of text at a large font works well. Also, if you want to reposition the CC panel, I've got a widget you can try here:
