Reduced font size in browser

All of the sudden some of my text is showing up a point or two smaller in Safari and in FireFox.
The font is Arial and all of the text was created in text boxes.
Even on the same page some of the text will be the correct size and some will be a reduced size.
The pages were all created in '08 and I have not had the problem until just recently.
I'm stumped.
Here's the site: http://carlisleantiques.net
Check out the "Philadelphia Secretary" in "Conservation"
I have tried copying the text to the clipboard, deleting the text box, creating a new text box and pasting the text back in. But the text still gets reduced in the browser.
I have noticed that the text will often come up the right size and then a split second later it gets smaller. What's going on?

Well I seem to have been able to figure out what was going on.
I tried increasing the font size in one of the text boxes and was surprised to find that the font size actually got even smaller in the browser! What has solved the problem is increasing the size of the text box. I think the browser was trying to render the correct size but didn't have the room to make it the full size. This is clearly a bug in iWeb '08. You shouldn't be able to make the text box too small like that. I also changed the setting to keep the text in the middle of the box so that I made sure there was room top and bottom. It has solved my problem, and maybe it will help someone else who has text showing up smaller than it should.

Reduce font size in a document.

Hello guys. I've a bit of a problem here. So I have this document downloaded from the internet and I have to print it out but the problem is that it's text size is way too large due to which it is spanning over about 275 pages. Is there any possible way to reduce font size of certain elements which keeping their relative sizes? For example, headings should stay the same but paragraphs should be reduced to about 12px.
I'm using Acrobat X Pro.

PDF files were not meant to be edited in this way. For such large-scale
changes you'll need to edit the original source file, and then re-create
the PDF.

Exporting to PDf reduces font size of one item only

I am using VS 2010 with the latest CR release. Within my crystal report I have a barcode (using IDAutomationHC39M) with set font size of 10. When I click on the "Export" button and choose PDF, all of the text stays the same except for the barcode which gets reduces to a font size of like 3 or 4 (its really tiny).
I can print it using Adobe PDF and the Barcode will stay the same font size of 10, but I want to avoid that if possible. What do I have to do to make the barcode export with the correct font size?

You will have to use it as a guide as it does not specifically address CRVS2010, but the patern is eh same...

Help on font sizes and browser resizing issues

When browsers resize the text, they can have a significant impact on the my designs. I am using CSS positioning, and not tables. I am also using relative font sizes, usually ems. I can get everthing to look right on my pages when the browsers are set at the normal or medium text size. But, i run into problems when the browser is set at the large or largest text size. I need help dealing with this issue in general. But, here's an example that best illustrates the problem:
I set some white-colored text on a dark background in a banner at set at 800px x 50px. The font size is set at 1 ems. The background color for the rest of the page is white. So, when the white-colored text fits easily within the banner, everything works okay. But, when the browser resizes the text, the white text flows beyond the dark background color of the banner and becomes invisible on the white background of the page. Is there some way to use margins, padding, or line size to manage this type of situation?
What are the best tactics to use regarding font size when using CSS positioning ?
Thanks for any help on this question.

Thank you for your prompt response. I will put my page on a test server when I can. But, for now, here is my code below.
I get your point about flexibility.The question is how? What are the best approaches to use? I have the sense that more experienced designers have some conventional tactics for ensuring the pages read reasonably well even when the text size is enlarged in the browsers, but I am not sure what approach might work in general.
Part of the issue with this particular design is that I am actually using a background image in the header/banner. And it has a set height:51 px. I don't want it to repeat it vertically whenever someone enlarges the text size in their browser.
Again, I would appreciate any help offered.

Pages are not scaled correctly, if you change the font size in browser (Fireworks export in CSS)

I created some simple pages for my website with fireworks. I only used images and text and exported the pages in CSS and images. The Problem is that if you change the font size in the browser text and images or text and text often overlap each other. So what can I do that the page is scaled correctly?

Yep, the "Font Size" option under Setup / Display is certainly not what it should be.
Perhaps Menu or Fixed Font size would be more accurate.
This problem extends to much of the device; the Browser, e-mails and the lock screen. Lock screen certainly looks like it was thrown together.

How do I reduce font size on captions?

I want to use captions on my slideshows but the font is far too large. How do I reduce its size? At present the captions are far too intrusive. I am using PE9.
Judith

Hi,
In the slide show editor, select a slide and then click on the caption text in the slide. On the right, you should see options to change the text formatting including size. You can also drag the text box to a new location on the slide.
I am not aware of a global setting to change all the captions. Currently, the default size is variable, depending on the length of the text.
Hope that helps

Windows7-how to increase page width & reduce font size

Compared to internet explorer, viewing each page on Firefox is difficult. Titles and images are overlapping and limited page width leaves blank columns on both sides, resulting in overlapping vertical text on the right side. Is there a way to 'Landscape' every page and also how do I reduce font size

Reduce font size in Itunes 11 on Windows

Aaaargjh....why-oh-why does V 11 not have a simple way to reduce the font size? On a decent hi-res PC screen the whole screen is just jammed in because the font is too large. Can i change it without needing a PHD in astrophysics first? What are those dudes at Apple thinking? Indeed, are they thinking at all about the user?
Some bright spark out there must have found a fix....i would love to hear it.

How to reduce font size in a drop down for a BSP application

Hi,
We are having an issue with the drop downs in BSP applications after SAP system upgrade. The R/3 system is upgraded to EHP4 and the BSP is embedded in a iview in the Portal.
When accessing BSP the dropdown values font size is showing big. Where can we change the font size for the dropdown values?
Thanks,
Madhavi

Hi,
It is possible to change font size with the html code.
here is a sample code:
In Layout:
<font size="4" face="Verdana"> ("define your font size and font family")
<htmlb:dropdownListBox id = "myDropdownListDay"
                  tooltip = "Quick info for myDropdownListBox">
<%LOOP AT <<internal-table> INTO fs_mod.      %>
                  <htmlb:listBoxItem   key = "<%=fs_mod%>"
                       value = "<%=fs_mod%>" />
<%ENDLOOP.%>
     </htmlb:dropdownListBox>
     </font>
Hope this solves the issue,Let me know if any queries.
Regards,
Rajani

How to keep the resized, bigger, font size while browsing back and forth in one window?

I´m a newbie with Firefox. I like to use a bigger font size as my eyesight is not as good as before. There is one problem with Firefox: the font size goes back to smaller every time I return to the previous page. Also when the font is bigger I have to draw the page to the left and to the right to be able to read the text. I did not have this kind of a small nuisance with Opera. Help needed.

Reducing font size on CD insert

I back up my iTunes tracks and playlists onto CD, and I like to make them look as close as possible to "real" CD's (no slight intended). But often even moderate length track and artist info is cut off, replaced by ellipses. It insists on using only one printed line per track, and there seems to be no way to continue the info on a second line (i.e., hitting "return" makes no difference).
I notice, however, that if there are about 25 tracks on the playlist, the type size is automatically reduced, and previously truncated lines often can fit fully onto the line.
So my question: How can I achieve that when I have only 15 or so tracks?
Grazie

This may not help you since it sounds like you want to use the iTunes built in cover print functions, but I always found the choices iTunes offered a bit limiting. Therefore I simply select all on my playlists then past the list into a spreadsheet or other work processing or image editing program in order to get the tracklisting to print out how I want them to, now how Apple allows me to do.

I have installed ttf-ms-fonts, ttf-dejavu, ttf-liberation and ttf-tahoma.

If I zoom out a bit in Firefox I get which isn't perfect but is quite readable. The interesting thing is that I don't have the nasty looking serif font in the text box. Is one of us missing an installed font?

I am trying to find an app that will interface with Windows XP home that will alllow me to download Excel 2003 files and run/change on an original Ipod. I have found Quick Office which is useless as cannot reduce font sizes to view a sensible area.

Is there an app that will allow me to move and edit Excel 2003 spreadsheets to and from Windows XP home that is better than QuickOffice. QuickOffice does, but will allow the usual Apple zooming facility on my Ipod Touch ?

I have Office Plus on my iPhone. I don't know if it's compatible with yours.

I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently. And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing. what am I missing?

You can type the email using what you set in preferences and then highlight the text and use command - minus sign (or command - + for larger) to reduce the size of the text.
You can also type command - T and a window will appear allowing you to select fonts/sizes/color/ background highlight.
The above works in Notes also. I haven't tried to do this in any other Apple application.
For incoming emails, you can use the above to reduce font size, but I don't know of a way to permanently set the incoming font size to a default.
