Minimum Font Size doesn't work

I've set Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size to 10 pt, but when I use Zoom Out, I get smaller fonts: The relation between font sizes on a page is kept.
What I want is FF 1.5 behavior: Minimum Font Size is honored even on Zoom Out, which results in shrinking the headlines only and finally ending with all Text in the same size after some repetitions of Zoom Out.
I have disabled Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above".
I have set Minimum Font Size for several encodings, but maybe the reason for the current behavior is a missing UTF-8 setting in the Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > "Fonts for" listbox ? Most pages including this support.mozilla.com use that encoding.

Minimum Font Size not working in Safari 4.0.4

Setting the minimum font size in Safari is ineffectual. Also, there seems to be another problem: the right and left sides of the search box on the right on this page are doubled and look like this: (( )). Are there any solutions to fix these? Thanks.

This is a know issue that the hosts know. This problem has been happening for many months. Apple doesn't own the program that makes this forum happen. So it's not an easy fix for the host to do. Maybe on day they get the maker of the forum program to fix it. The search box still works.

Minimum font size RichEditableText

I'm using RichEditableText (with a TextConverter textFlow) to display emails that have been received which works great for bot clear text as well as HTML emails, however sometimes the HTML is really tiny.
Now I've looked at this for a while and it always appears to be caused by a fault in the HTML markup in the received email.
Some had a tag like ...<FONT SIZE="1"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:9.0px'>... in it and others had other similar reasons for it to appear very small.
I obviously can't control what tags different mail clients put in their HTML mails, but does anyone know if there's a way of setting like a minimum font size for this RichEditableText so even though the HTML says it should be font size 1, it's actually displayed at the minimum size?
I'm currently using this:
<s:RichEditableText id="noteText" selectable="true" editable="false" textFlow="{TextConverter.importToFlow(theEmail, TextConverter.HTML_FORMAT)}" />
Thanks

Hmm, unfortunately this means i'll have to scan and reformat HTML as it comes in and replace <font size=xx> so the minimum size is i,e, 10px.
All doable, but just a bit frustrating that there still is no simple way to display some basic HTML (and I don't want to go down the iFrame route).
Oh, I also noticed the rendering of textFlow HTML in a richtexteditor is extremely slow and it stops rendering when it comes across:
I'll file seperate bug reports for those as well.
Luckily the Halo Text still does the trick even with it's known HTML limitations.
Ah well. Thanks anyway.

Set "minimum font size" to 13 hack

If you try to type in "13" in the Safari prefs for minimum font size ( Advanced prefs - "never display fonts smaller than" ), the app will not let you type "1" then anything else.
So, you are stuck with 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 18 etc
If you want "13", you cannot select or type it in.
Hack: Type "13" into a text / word processor, select & copy it, then hilite the field in Safari and paste in the "13".
Works fine!

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

Help - Font Book and font Library doesn't work

I've just updated to a new iMac on Yosemite, and Font Book doesn't work. Neither does putting fonts into the "Library"
There is a range of fonts that ARE working that are already in either place, but some (that worked up until two days ago in my old Mac running OS 10.6.8) just won't work.
If I select the fonts in Font Book, Font Book doesn't load them. If I put them in the Library, they don't appear for use in any application.
As a designer, updating fonts is essential, and if this can't be fixed I'm in serious trouble! So any advice welcome!

We see posts like this here all the time. A person upgrades to a new OS, and Font Book suddenly stops working. Usually, the problem is that Font Book's database has been trashed by the upgrade with the very common symptoms you're seeing. You suddenly can't add fonts, and fonts Font Book says are open don't appear in some, or any apps.
Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point. Yosemite is a bit different. Whether it's a Safe Mode boot or a normal one, you get the same progress bar. It just takes longer to get to the desktop in Safe Mode. So hold the Shift key until you get to the desktop.
OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
If that alone doesn't do it (it should), then clear out all of the font cache data.
Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current logged in user account. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

How do I set up minimum font size for mail messages in iPod touch 5G?

According to the iPod touch User Guide for iOS 6:
Set the minimum mail message font size: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Minimum Font Size
But in "Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars" I don't see the "Minimum Font Size" option.
Thank you in advance!

Look under Settings > General > Accessibility > Large Text

How to set minimum font size in mail app?

How can I set a minimum font size in mail app? I have received mails that have a font size that seems to be smaller than 9pt which results being nearly unreadable. Sure its possible to increase the font size by pressing cmd + "+" but this setting isn't remembered for the next time I open these mails. Prior to Mavericks there was a solution to write the minimum font size to the defaults. Anything similar for Yosemite?

No, this only applies to the font size for the header displayed above the mail content and the font type and size of the Rich Text mails your are composing. With this setting you cannot modify the font size or type of received messages.

How do you specify a minimum font size for incoming mail?

Is there a way to specify a minimum font size for incoming mail messages? Mail I get from others is almost unreadable and I always have to manually (apple +) increase the size.
As a test, a friend on a PC (most mail I get comes from Windows) kept increasing the size he sent me, but when I received it there was no change in size on my end.
I can't find anything in Mail's menus and preferences to change this behavior.
Mail 2.07; OS 10.4.6.
Thanks,
Cathy

if i had the problem then i'd make a backup copy of
my ~/library/preferences/com.appple.mail.plist file,
open the original in property list editor, look for
any likely elements that have small or negative font
sizes and set them to, say, 12, save the changes and
see if that helped
Found the file; couldn't open it (tried Text Edit?) to make any changes.
You can use the following trick to force Mail to
always use a larger minimum font size on received
messages - some HTML messages might not look exactly
as intended but at least you can now read them:
1. Quit Mail
2. Open the Terminal
(/Applications/Utilities/Terminal) and type in the
following:
defaults write com.apple.mail
MinimumHTMLFontSize 13
3. Restart Mail.app and your HTML messages are
readable.
Of course you can set the point size to whatever you
like.
Found file; was not comfortable inputing text as this simple task did not behave properly.
PC friend said other Mac user reported this same anomally with receiving small text from him. I have over a dozen different PC users that I correspond with where I have this problem. It seems to be on the Mac end.

After the recent update the entire browser, including menus, icons, and everything on the web page, are too small. Fonts are smaller, pics are smaller, zoom settings will not remain universal. Minimum font size will make text readable, but all pics are to

The new update has screwed up my browser settings, I cannot get them fixed and Im pissed because my computer is an eye-sore to read until this is fixed! EVERYTHING in the browser is smaller, fonts, menus, icons, web page content, pictures, tables, etc. I have set the minimum font in the settings and the text is just to a point where it is easily readable at the maximum size setting, but all the menus and icons are still tiny and hard to read. The last version I had installed worked fine with no add-ons needed. Everything fit the screen fine and was easily readable without modification. I want this version off my PC and I want the last version I had back on but I dont know what version it was!!!!!!! ARARGGGG
In fact, this stupid troubleshooting window that I am in filling out this form doesnt fit the page right at all, and edges of the text are cut off, so Im not even sure what some of these boxes are asking for!!

See [[Toolbars and page content appear too large after upgrading to Firefox 3]]
*Try to adjust the DPI setting, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.css.dpi
*Try to set the pref layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to 2 on the about:config page.
To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.

Custom Page Sizes doesn't work

I have set up a few custom page sizes but when I try to used them, it doesn't work. Well once in blue moon it does.
I can't find a consistent way that it does. I have read all the online help and followed the process to the letter, but when I select the page size under Paper Size it doesn't change the paper size.

J,
There definitely are problems with Custom Page sizes. I don't have enough specifics to formulate what I would consider good feedback to Apple, something that they could easily act on.
I can tell you that if you set your System Preferences > International > Formats > Measurement Units: US and Set your Pages > Preferences... > Rulers > Ruler Units: Inches, you can create the size you want and it will stay selected and not pop back to the default. Here's what I have:
Again, I know that there's a problem. If you wish, you can use the setup I outlined and get the job done and later take up the cause of fixing whatever is going on with the CM units.
To Fruhulda, you noted that 9 cm by 6 cm is a size that fails as J described - and I confirmed here. However to get a successful size I found that I could use 3.53" X 2.35" (8.97CM X 5.97CM), a very close compromise. There clearly are problems with measurement units in Page Setup.

Jerry

Changing the font size does not work with Textarea with HTML Editor

If you change the font size in the text area of a "Textarea with HTML Editor" item it does not work. I've searched the forum and the only solution I've seen is to use an HTML editor foriegn to APEX. Does anyone have a better solution? Thanks, Elizabeth

I'm having a similar issue except with HTML Editor Standard.
What I'm doing is allow someone to write to an HTML Editor Standard field and then an HTML marked up text is saved to a db CLOB column. In another page, I reference this DB column and show it in an HTML Region (I do a computation Before Regions for a hidden item that writes out the html with "htp.p")
Everything shows up fine EXCEPT the font tags and headings. I'm finding that the HTML Region sets the font size only with the < d i v s t y l e="font-size: large" >and NOT < f o n t size:6 >. When the HTML Editor renders the user's text input, any size changes are made with the < f o n t > tag, which is depreciated anyways, and not with "style". That's why the size is not showing up.
I can't really figure out why the headings aren't showing up except maybe the css style in the region is overridding it...
Is there another APEX item type like HTML Editor (which uses FCKEditor) that I can use, or maybe another approach to remedy this issue? Or maybe this post calls for an enhancement with the HTML Editor?{size}{size}
