The font is too small

The entered font size in mm is not true. The font is too small. Am I doing something wrong?

Thomas,
If you need to have the font appearance at a specific size while maintaining fuilly editable Live Type, you may:
1) Tick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds;
2) Select the Type and Effect>Path>Outline Object;
3) Then set the desired size in the Transform palette.
That will reduce the Bounding Box to the actual bounds of the letters, and keep the Type editable.
Remember to untick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds before you get a reverse issue.

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 ...

Is there a way to increase the size of the tool windows/fonts in InDesign. I am having trouble seeing the info (the font is too small)

Is there a way to increase the size of the font in the tool windows in InDesign? I am having trouble seeing the info (the font is too small)

Not possible. You'll need to go to your operating system and choose a screen resolution that displays the screen with larger pixels.
Or get a new prescription for your glasses (seriously!)

I have a 22 inch monitor set at 150% but since I installed Firefox, the font is too small and the screen is too small. Cannot make font or screen larger. I can do Control++ each time I enter a page but don't want that to be my solution.

In control panel/display, I had my display set at 150% and at 1680 X 1050 resolution. This filled my 22 inch screen with the page content. Now that I have installed Firefox, the font is too small and the content is centered in the screen leaving about3" per side of blank space. I want to fill the screen and make everything larger. Haven't found a way to do that. Firefox tells me in my control panel/display window that by setting my display at 150%, "some items may not fit in your screen if you choose this setting while your display is set to this resolution. It worked fine with Explorer.

The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

The page does not fit the screen and the fonts are too small. I cant seem to change any of the settings

I cant seem to get any page to fit entirely on hte screen. I also cant seem to change the font which is too small. I tried making changes in the options section, but nothing happens.

CTRL+0 (<--that is a zero) will reset your zoom level on affected pages. Firefox remembers the zoom level you last used on a page.

Apple Mail (Mavericks), Viewing size of list is too small.how do you increase the size of the email message list. The font is too small, I can hardly read them.

In Apple Mail, using Mavericks, how do you increase the size of the email message list that displays on the left side of the screen?
The font size is so small.
Thanks.

Thank you for responding. After investigating and checking further, it was clear that only one of your suggestions changes the font size of the list of emails, also called the In-box. And that is the display resolution.
However, changing the display resolution affects the dots per inch of everything, everywhere and makes it larger.
Given the high end fee Apple charges for their products, and the generally well developed software they provide, it is hard to imagine they have not corrected this obvious slight of effort on the inbox text. At times Apple's "one-size-fits-all" and "it's our way or no way" mentality astounds me and makes me want to run back to Microsoft.
Evidently this is a well known mistake, which has yet to receive any attention.
Again, thank you for your effort and assistance on my behalf.

The font is too small to read on 32" hdtv. can I do anything about it?

For the ATV menues, can I change the amount of information on the screen at one time? Movie titles are too hard to read.... Maybe use an iPad (first gen) app to see the same display on the iPad as is on the hdtv? Any other ideas?
thanks

yeah you can use the remote app on other ios devices and place the ios device in question as close to your eyes as you see fit

Comments font is too small

Hello,
I've installed Acrobat DC and opened a PDF with comments.
When looking at the list of comments, it looks good and the font size is good,
BUT!
When double clicking the comment in comments bar in order to copy the comment, the font becomes too small.
The same PDF that it's comments font looked good under Acrobat X has become too small in Acrobat DC.
I know that there was never an option to make all comments fonts bigger and that you can go to each comment and enlarge it text, but it is not reasonable to do it for 200 comments.
This is very disturbing.
Is there a way to fix it?
All the best
Shlomit

Hello
Thank you for your answer but this is not what I asked and it doesn't solve my problem.
I'm not talking about comments I create.
I'm talking about comments proof readers are creating for me.
Most of them use Reader and most of them use the default settings for the comment text.
I am the graphic designer who needs to fix the proof reader comments. I need to copy the text of the comment, and for that I need to double click it. When double clicking to comment, the text becomes too small. It has nothing to do with the size you set in preferences as this size refer the the comments text view when they are closed (without double clicking it in order to copy the fixed word or words) and not about the content of the comment. It even written in prefs "Comment view" and not "Comment content"///
Look at the attached screenshot.
I hope my question is clearer now.
Now, how do I change the font size of all 370 comments I have in my document so when I double click the comment I can see the font in a bigger font size?
I don't believe there is a way to do it. There was never a way.
I read here that there is nothing to do in old versions, seems like in the new version its the same. So the news are still sad as one of your stuff said in his answer...
I do hope I'm wrong, this is a serious issue for me.
all the best,
Shlomit

The Firefox font is too small on the homepage and all websites. How do I change it?

I loaded the latest version of Firefox. The font is so small that I can't read websites, etc. I looked through all of the help suggestions and nothing worked. Zooming doesn't hold; changing the font size makes web content overlap, changing the scale didn't help. The Firefox Help page has the perfect font size. Why can't that be used for everything else. This is a make or break for me and many others whether we use Firefox. I have a network of 68 people and we are all experiencing the same thing. Even with glasses, it is too difficult to read.

There are some add-ons that can be used to change the zoom level on all sites, for example:
* NoSquint - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint
* Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level

I want the old download display back! Library font is too small, do NOT want the sidebar!

Just upgraded to 20.0 on XP SP3 - not interested in 'library' display; font is too small to read, do not need/want the sidebar, and need/want the % complete to show as it did in the old download display.
Also, how do I turn off the distracting and stupid fade-in/fade-out large green arrow on download completion - again not something I'm interested or have any use for.

I haven't tried it myself, but check out the solution in this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/955204 Got new version, want to go back to previous download box, the new one has no history and doesn't show speed of download, how do I go back?]
The green arrow, like other toolbar controls, can be hidden by using the Customize feature. Kick that off by doing either of these:
* right-click a blank area of the Tab bar > Customize
* View menu > Toolbars > Customize
Drag the unwanted arrow into the dialog with the other unused buttons, the click Done.
Does that fix it?

The print is too small on various web sites that I open. How can I correct this?

The print is too small on various web sites that I open. This has never happened on older Firefox versions. How can I correct this so every page I open, the print size is consistent and legible? I don't want to change it every time I open a new site.

Hi Donna,
Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
Font Size and the scale (size) at which a document is printed is controlled within the application just before the job is sent to the printer - this means the size is set from your browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer) or perhaps your Editor (Word). Generally speaking, most applications use Print Preview -- or a variation of that program under a different name.
An explanation and the use of Print Preview is avialble in the following document:

I've shrunk my fonts box too small!

Thanks to everyone for your gracious help!
I've shrunk my font box too small, and can't get it to enlarge again. I dragged its resize control (bottom right corner of the panel) but now can't drag it back.
Thank you - Julie

Hello Julie
I assume you are referring to the Font Inspector. If so, you should see three little circular buttons in the top left of the window. As you move your mouse over the third from the left it should go green with a + symbol. Click it and it will expand again. If you aren't talking about this, please post back.

I can't delete partition in disk utility, it keeps telling me that "the changes are too small"

I previously split my disk into two different disks, however I want to combine them together again, yet i was unable to delete the second partition. I can't delete partition in disk utility, it keeps telling me that "the changes are too small"

Make at least two complete backups of all your data. Boot from another drive and partition this one as desired. Restore the data.
