My fronts are smaller than what I set in InDesign?

While Using InDesing to create an e-book, I found out that the fronts that use in the documents appear smaller than what I wanted in epub format?
example: my front size is 20, but when I export to epub, the front size is about 12 or 10!
I do not understand why? It doesn't have anything to do with the fronts that I used (Times News Roman)
It is driving me crazy as I do not know how ot solve it!
Please help!

At first I thought: funny typo! Then I saw that 'front' was used everywhere. If one does not even know what it is called I start to wonder if one should do the work...
Anyway: the reader sets the fontsize on the e-reader device for EPUB, not the designer. It is not PDF it is EPUB, it can be changed by the user, so you never know at what size it will be read or where a pagebeak is.
Maybe you should catch up reading on design...

FCP7 HELP - Exported quicktime mov plays differently than what I edited on the timeline. The playback shows the clips with ins and outs that are different than what I set in the clips when I edited - some are too early and the clips don't playback

Please help ASAP.

Editing with FCP 7
When I export the sequence I edited with quicktime, the playback video is very different from what I edited on the timeline. The playback has the clips with ins and outs that are way off than what I cut, and some of the clips don't show at all or have changed transitions. However when I play in the timeline in FCP, the sequence is fine, just the way I cut it.
The source of the clips was one long .mov that I cut into clips for the timeline. Everything has gone smoothly but the exported .mov is just so different.
How can I get the time codes of the clips to be the same in the exported .movs? I just want the quicktime .mov to represent my edit exactly.
This video is due tomorrow - if the solution is too time consuming, can I play within the FCP player window and Log and Capture?
Thanks,
MV

What is your source material? Is it H.264? FCP does not work correctly with that material.
Click on a source clip in the FCP Browser, and once selected, type Command + 9 to see the item properties for the clip. Either report those properties, or take a screen shot of the item properties, and post that here.
Next, click anywhere in your timeline, and then type Command + 0 {zero} to see your Sequence Settings. Either report those Sequence Settings, or take a screen shot of the Sequence Settings and post that here.

Using LR 5 to make slideshow and images in the preview are correct but when I play the actual slideshow the pictures are a lot smaller than what they should be. Help!

I'm making a slideshow with Lightroom 5. I'm using a 2014 Macbook Pro. Everything works except when I play the actual slideshow the pictures are smaller than what they should be. But the preview is showing the correct photo size. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it? Thanks!

Hey ronfya
Did you ever get any feedback on this? I haven't read the Technicolor link yet. I was just trying to figure out why my stuff comes out darker on Vimeo. Could this be because FCPX is displaying it to brightly?

Photoshop brush strokes are smaller than the cursor, need to make them the same.

My photoshop brush, pencil and Clone strokes are smaller than the cursor, which makes it very difficult for accuracy. Don't know what made them change, but want the cursor and stroke to be the same.
I've tried different settings in the brush dialog box, with differenc tip settings, etc, with no results. Also, tried different settings in Preferences/Cursor setting. No luck.
Help!

<<<<
Under Preferences (cmd k) > Cursors > Painting Cursors, the setting should be Normal.
Usually "Reset Tools" as described in post 1 helps. Have you tried it yet?

Gene,
Yes, I've tried that, and all the variations on that page, without success.

Prints are darker than what appears on PC screen

Windows Vista Business OS
Acer laptop PC
PSE6
Good morning.
I'm so hoping that someone has an easy solution to this printing issue.
In PSE6, I've created 85 scrapbook poem pages in the following format: 300 dpi; 12 x 12 size that will be reduced to a print size of 8 x8.
I worked all summer on this project for my 98-year young grandma who is the author of these poems. Gram is spry and healthy, but given her age, we are both concerned that it will take a long time to remedy the problem - if the only solution to lighten is to go through each layer of all 85 pages and reset the light intensity. As she says in jest, "time" is really not on her side. This is our second poem book project - the first was handmade scrapbook poem pages that were printed directly from a UPS copycenter printer.
For this second project, I printed some test copies of a couple of pages on my inkjet Lexmark printer. Photo quality paper: the printed copy was much darker than what appeared on the laptop PC screen - details couldn't be distinguished. Lower quality paper: the printed copy had a faded looking print.
I will be taking the PDF format of the pages to the UPS copycenter, again. I've been told that the prints can be lightened, however, I'm concerned that the quality of the print will be compromised.
Any easy solutions to resolve this problem?
Thank you.
Shinlee

Any suggestions or comments about this topic? I've been told by the UPS copy center that lightness/darkness modifications can be made from their printer; however my concern is that the print quality will be affected (i.e. lightening will cause a faded look).

HT3702 The charges to my account are higher than what I actually charged?

I have been billed by iTunes for numerous amounts the past month. I play candy crush and my phone is always in my possession but the charges I'm being charged is always higher than what I use. Today I played and used 2 $0.99 but when I logged into my bank it is showing two charges for $9.94 and $9.93? I have kept a record of what has been charged to my card and it is not matching up. It is totally over $180.00 and I have never nor would I ever charge that much for a game. Please call me or email me ASAP concerning these erroreous charges!

Why is WB temperature way different than what's set in my camera?

I did search for the topic before I posted and only one relevant post came up (in the last month) which moreless confirmed the same issue with a different camera.
I shoot Olympus E1, so I dialed 7500K and fired a shot. Imported into Aperture and looking at WB scale and it reads 6186K. The image looks as if Aperture showed the image correctly, but the number is way off. 1300K difference??? So obviously if I move it to 7500 it will not be correct anymore because it will be rather 8800 in reality.
Second thing I did right after, was to look at EXIF and sure enough Aperture showed no value in WB field.
For a comparison purpose I looked at the shot in ACR and found out that the temperature was spot on. So this is not rather whether Olympus is hiding the value so it's difficult to retrieve, but rather how is Aperture coming up with so wrong figure.
I am also curious how can Aperture get the image colored correctly if it cannot figure out the set WB value in camera properly.
Puzzling to say the least and confusing possibly for processing work.
Thanks
Marek

Hi Marek,
There are a couple ways you can get white balance "right."
1) You can shoot a grey card (or something like an ExpoDisc) in the field and then set the white balance of the camera onsite.
2) You can shoot the same grey card onsite and leave the camera on AWB, and shoot everything. Then go back and eyedropper the grey card and batch change all your photos.
#2 is quicker... but they both work equally well.
But practically you will not "get it right" by setting the white balance to a preset in the field. "Daylight" at 5000K (or whatever the setting in your camera is), is a total WAG. The actual color temperature may be 4500K or 6300K in that setting -- you will have very little chance of getting it right by picking an auto setting. You COULD break out a spectropherometer and measure and find it is 5002K so use 5000K in camera, but again if Aperture came up with 4837 you'll still want to edit later.
If you are "serious about your shooting" where "serious" means accurate, then you are going to be shooting indoors under controlled lighting conditions. You will also shoot with a full GMB card which has all the colors and tints and hues, so you can get absolutely correct colors (HELLO, FASHION AND ADVERTISING PHOTOGRAPHY). If you do landscape, then color temperature, as is contrast and a number of other things, is open to interpretation. When I was shooting with Seth Resnick in Antarctica a few weeks back, his rule of thumb was basically "Start at 6500K and warm it up from there." lol. Still, his images are beautiful.

Time stamps in reports are different than what is on the record

We have some users in the UK who have their time setting set to GMT. On our SR form, we have a few date/time fields. The data on the form is correct.. When they run a report with these fields, the time is adjusted by 8 hours, or PST, which is the time zone in our company profile.
How can we make sure the reports show the correct time based on the users time zone?

Did you get an answer re this David? Currently a client is having the same issue, trying to run an end of month report with some records entered on the last day of the month not being captured due to this time difference.

Audio exporting in different format than what's set on timeline

I imported some long xdcam video files with two separate channels of audio. For some reason some of the files imported as stereo (which I wanted) and some imported as mono even though I never made any changes to my camera. When I put the clips on my timeline I switched all of them to 'stereo' format, but when I export the file as an H.264 quicktime movie, the audio reverts back to the way it was originally on the clips. The clips that imported as mono play as mono, and the ones that imported as stereo, play as stereo.
I've tried things like switching the project default audio to stereo and even surround sound, but nothing seems to be working and I'm really at a loss. All I want is for my whole quicktime video is to have stereo sound where channel 1 article comes out the left speaker and channel 2 audio comes out the right speaker.

Did that, there's audio on both channels. Channel one is audio from a headset microphone and channel two is audio from the shotgun mic on the camera. I should be more clear, when I play it back in the timeline, everything sounds the way I want it. The channel 1 audio is only coming out of the left speaker, the channel 2 audio is only coming out of the right speaker, which is what I want. When I export, some of the clips revert to dual mono and I can hear a mix of channel 1 and channel 2 coming out of both speakers.

Replacement iphones can be refurbs. They will be service units and not in the standard box.

When Firefox starts it opens a page other than what I set Preferences - General - Startup to do.

When I have logged on to Ubuntu as "Bob" Firefox shows www.bob.com at startup. When I have logged on to Ubuntu as "Another" Firefox shows www.another.com. "Show my windows and tabs from last time" works but the www.bob.com shows in an additional tab. Home page is not changed. "Show my home page" works ok too but the www.bob.com shows in an additional tab.

Check the command line of the shortcut to see if that has a correct setting.
I have this command: /usr/lib/firefox/firefox %u
You can try to remove any additional switches and commands and only leave the path to Firefox.

How do I figure out the size of an image in my iPhoto. How do I know if it is Kilobytes or megabytes. I assume Megabytes are larger than kilobytes and gigabytes are largest.

How do I figure out the size of an image in my iPhoto. Soe applications require a certain size and I have no way of knowing what they are.
Please confirm that Kilobytes are smaller than megabytes and gigabytes are the largest.

You're correct, Kilobytes are smaller than megabytes and gigabytes are the largest.
When you attach the images to an email, look on the bottom line for the total size of the email. You can also change the image from Actual size to medium or small.

Delete every file which size is smaller than 10kb

Hello,
how can I delete every file which size is smaller than 10 kb?? I'd thought that i can do that with the methode "length()"... but nothing happens.
File tryToDelete = new File( ".");
String [] listing = tryToDelete.list();
for (int z = 0; z < listing.length; z ++)
 if ((listing[z].length()) < 10000) //does anyone know what is wrong here??
 File away = new File(listing[z]);
 away.delete();
}thanks for helping ...

ups... you are right... but I still have an problem...
I want to delete only the files which are smaller than 10 kb and starting with the "http".
But it doesn't work, when I run the code:
File tryToDelete = new File( ".");
String [] listing = tryToDelete.list();
for (int z = 0; z < listing.length; z ++)
 if (listing[z].startsWith("http");
 File away = new File(listing[z]);
 if ((away.length()) < 10000)
 System.out.println(away);
}then he prints me out ALL files which size is smalletr than 10000. But I only want to have the files which starts with "http".
What is my error??

For some reason all of my forwards, and my printing come out significantly smaller than the original. Any idea how to get this back to printing the size of my screen and forwarding the size of the original mail I've received? Thanks.

Hi. I am not technically proficient. I have somehow hit something that is making my email forwards and text to the printer way smaller than what is appearing on my screen. I have looked into everything I can think of in settings and outlook express. If you have any ideas, I would greatly appreciate them. I assume that one click and I'll be back to "normal", but can't figure out which darned click that would be. Thanks.

Have you checked Outlook's font preferences? You can change to size under General Preferences>Fonts. You can also change font sizes by using ⌘shift+
