Window Maximizing and Safari font size

I have a 13 inch Macbook. Why can't I completely open the safari window, or any window for that matter?
The font on web pages ar so small, I can hardly read. I tried changing the display setting but it just made the window display kind of grainy. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Try holding down command and hit + a couple times. You can reverse this by holding command and hitting - a few times.

How to keep alignment in Windows LARGE and SMALL fonts

For years, I fought with LabVIEW, trying to keep things looking decent in both Windows LARGE and SMALL font sizes.
By this, I mean Settings - Control Panels - Display - Settings - Advanced - General - Font Size
I love to use large fonts - I run my display at 1600x1200 and it just looks better.
But if you plop an indicator on a panel in LARGE fonts, save it, then open it with SMALL fonts in effect, it looks horrible.
N.I. Doesn't care about this - just look at how ugly their own examples get when viewed in LARGE fonts.
So I developed a method to make the bottom of the label text line up with the bottom of the numerical text, whether in LARGE fonts or SMALL.
Click here for examples. Basically, I turn OFF the SIZE to TEXT attribute and right-justify the label (if on the left of the numeric).
This works OK, except I have just discovered that it depends on the text being the default size.
If I have a 17-pt numeric with a 17-point label, then they both appear as 13-pt when I switch to SMALL fonts - great -- they're still aligned.
But if I have a 17-point numeric with a 16-pt label, when I switch to SMALL, the numeric shrinks to 13, but the label stays at 16, and is thus vertically misaligned with the numeric.
So how can I have a 17-pt numeric with a 13-pt label, and have them BOTH shrink when I switch to SMALL fonts?
I suppose I could use property nodes, and detect the switch myself, but I have 50+ of these on a single VI to do - that would be ugly to watch the labels jumping around.
I suppose I could have two VIs - one for LARGE fonts and one for SMALL, but I don't want to duplicate th
e code.
Any other ideas?

It is true that we don't have a
solution. It isn't that we don't care, but the solution choices stink.
Well, I'll stand by my opinion that N.I. doesn't care - when using the default app font, there *-IS-* a solution - the link in my original post points to a page that I show my employees on how to solve the problem. It is solvable, for the case of using the default font and size. Yet N.I. uses the default font and size, but LOOK HOW THEIR EXAMPLES APPEAR (see attached files). This is how the example software looks, out of the box. These are not ancient examples, either.
It is NOT my opinion that, because there apparently is no solution for non-standard sizes, the stuff looking ugly is NI's fault.
But when a solution DOES exist for standard sizes, why they don't apply it is beyond me. Even some of the LabVIEW dialogs suffer from this.

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

Why Acrobat x professional is changing the text formatting specifically the font family and the font size of the text in my pdf on exporting it to Microsoft word file format ?How should i stop Acrobat x professional from doing that so that i get an exactly same word file on exporting it from its pdf counterpart?

I was testing the preciseness & efficiency of Adobe acrobat x professional's doc conversion capabilities. As i have to take a document editing project in future which is going to need lot of pdf to word and vice versa conversions . What I did was I created a test word document converted into a pdf using a pdf maker in my word 2007 , Acrobat did convert the document from word to pdf keeping everything in the source file intact , However when i tried the other way round and attempted to convert the same pdf to word 2007 file format I lost my formatting ?So the font that I used to create the pdf are the ones taken from word 2007 which i believe is using the fonts that are installed in my computer. Any suggestions on how to preserve the formatting of the document after converting it from pdf to word file format?
Regards
Mike

I would like to know how to increase the window size and message font size on the the Three Button Dialog.vi

I like using the Three Button Dialog .vi. However, I am doing a job were I need to use a larger font size. I tried to adjust the core vi but could not make it do what I wanted. Any help would be great.

1: VI Properties Window Size- Check maintain proportions of window for different monitor resolutions. (Your users will thank you)
Jeff,
Why do you think that is a good idea? When I opened your VI on my screen, the buttons were cut off at the bottom, and there was a slight cutoff on the right side. Without scrollbars or the ability to resize the panel, (which I generally wouldn't want on a dialog box anyway) there is no way to be able to see the whole dialog.
Did your VI show all of the buttons and show all of the text box? On mine it looked like this.
What was your screen resolution and your monitor aspect ratio? Mine is 1680 x 1050 for a 16:10 ratio. I think you will have problems with checking this box. I would recommend unchecking it. Suppose you programmed on a 16:10 screen, but someone else has a 16:9, or even a 4:3. That is going to screw up the appearance of the dialog unless you take the time to resize the buttons and text inside the dialog. (And I feel checking the resize option inside the Window Appearance settings just never works right either.)
If I was the user, I'd appreciate a dialog box that wasn't cut off.

Safari font size changing as if by magic !

while using Safari on my new al macbook , the font size will just change, seemingly on its own, if I close the window and reopen, it will return to the font size set in Preferences. Does anyone know what is going on? thank you joanlvh

as far as I can tell there is no pattern, it might happen on Huffington Post in the am, but not in the pm, the computer is just 3 days old so I don't think i can put the blame on History or Cache, this is the 5th apple laptop i have had in 3+ years and I have never seen this occur before, It seems, can't be sure to happen when I click the curser and the cursor is in the top right area of the screen. It is only happening with safari, not Mail or other applications, I have set the Safari Preferences for text size.
ps scratch the right corner idea, it just happened when I was typing and the cursor was in the bottom left and I did not click but started to move the cursor

Safari Font Size Too BIG

My daughter was on my computer and somehow changed the font size in safari and it is too big. I've tried the command/shift/- and and that is not changing the appearance (font is still too big). Any other suggestions? All webpages are affected.

Figured it out (thanks prior poster)
Go to Safari Preferences > Advanced.
Then adjust the size of type to display as you like it.
This one is set to 10, but you can up to 24 if you need to.
Hope this helps.

IPhone Safari Font Sizes are bad

Anyone else notice the bad font sizes in iPhone Safari?
I am writing a web site and am having trouble getting safari to render fonts on the iphone the same way they are rendered on safari... I tried changing the font-family to Verdana and Arial since those are supposed to be supported on both the iPhone and Mac Safari but that did not fix it...
As a great example go to google and search for something on your iphone.
The word "Sign in" on the top right is too large...
The word "Web" (right under the search box) is too small...
The other words in the blue bar with "Web" are also too large...
Right now my current solution is to pin point things that are too small and too large and on a case by case basis change the font sizes for those elements... This is pretty ridiculous when you have a large site and lots of pages...

Sweet your thing wasnt right but pointed me to the right location:
I just needed:
html {-webkit-text-size-adjust:none}

Safari Font Size

Is there a way to set the font size to be slightly larger than the default setting in Safari. The default text size is too small for me and I constantly have to click command + or the Zoom feature on the tool bar for each site i go to. I'd rather the setting be larger as I browse my favorite sites.

Font size no, but a workaround would be to try another resolution.
System Preferences > Displays > Display > Scaled
Or, try Safari > Preferences > Accessibility > Zoom
You could also try another browser such as Firefox > Download Firefox

Always good to have a backup browser installed in case you have problems with Safari.

Iphone4 Safari font size

I searched the iPhone settings and the discussions forum but can't find a way to increase the font size on the iphone4 in Safari. I want to read these discussions on the iPhone but the font is too small, even in landscape mode and double-clicking to column-zoom in.
Is there a way? If not, can anyone recommend a 3rd party browser tha allows this?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks, julieda...
....that is what I have been doing but it gets Old. If the column is too wide, I have to not only finger-spread the text, but move left and right to read the entire column of text. I was hoping to be able to enlarge the text and have it to where I just vertical-scroll.
But I am a nice guy, so here's a star.

Adobe Type Manager problem with Windows 7 and DIN font file extension not showing

I have Windows 7 and for some reason I cannot install Adobe Type Manager onto my Computer.
I need ATM to install the DIN font but am having no luck what so ever.
I can see the DIN font in my Dropbox but it is showing up like this:- ._DIN-bold, no file file extension. what am I doing wrong? is it Mac?

Adobe Type Manager absolutely cannot be installed on Windows 7. In fact, even attempting to install it may corrupt your operating system installation and its ability to properly render Type 1 and OpenType CFF fonts. The last version of Windows for which ATM was at all compatible was Windows XP, 32-bit only!
Adobe Type Manager is not at all necessary to install fonts, even Type 1 fonts, on Windows 7 systems. Right click on the font file for TrueType of OpenType CFF fonts or the .PFM file for Type 1 fonts and select the Install option.
The font file you are trying to install is for MacOS. It cannot be installed on Windows.

Windows 7 and Adobe Fonts

hi, i have windows 7 and still using CS3. type manager does not work with windows 7. i was so accustomed to using type manager but thought i figured out how to get my fonts working. They are in other software (such as microsoft/quark). However, in all my adobe products my fonts besides the fonts which were loaded on the computer are not showing up. can you help?

There is a known bug with CS3 and all 64-bit versions of Windows (not just Windows 7) in which Type 1 fonts installed in the C:\Windows\fonts directory simply do not show up in the applications. This was fixed for CS4. The workaround is to also install those Type 1 fonts in the Creative Suite private font directory. They will then show up in the CS3 applications' font lists.

Custom OBIEE Subtotal and Total Font Size

Hello all
Im trying to customize the font size of the subtotal or total row
I was able to find the following and it got me half way there
http://obieexpertise.blogspot.ca/2010/05/customize-format-of-subtotal-cells.html
BUT the issue I have now is that while the the total values are now increased in font size, the name of the row is not increased
So for example
Change Total 1000
The 1000 has increased in font size, but how do i get the "Change total" to increase in size?
Edited by: chillychin on May 9, 2013 2:02 PM

In Pivot table Rows section on column->Sigma icon->Format Labels... or Format Values
are not helping you?
The same for Table view too, this would be simplest one.

Point and Pixel font sizes

I'm working on a website for the first time (always been print-only) and I've done the design rough in Illustrator.
I've been working with fonts sized in points, but from my understanding I need to be working in pixels?
When changing the font size from points to pixels in Preferences > Units, my 10pt font shows as 10px fonts. As far as I understand this is not correct? Is it correct and why; and how do I ensure my fonts are the right size for screen?

When changing the font size from points to pixels in Preferences > Units, my 10pt font shows as 10px fonts. As far as I understand this is not correct?
When Illustrator uses "pixels" as a unit of measure (which it is not), it is really using points. All of Illustrator's underlying measures are in points (1/72 inch).
I'm not sure what you're struggling with re webpages; but you can code text size in XHTML / CSS as pixels or points or as percentages.

Firefox and fraction font sizes

Today I was experimenting with GTK font sizes, and noticed that my new least-favorite app doesn't even handle that correctly.
Check this out:
Exhibit A: GTK font size 7
Exhibit B: GTK font size 7.5
Notice how the font in Thunar's menu changed and Firefox's didn't? Through testing 7.9 as a font size I came to the conclusion that it isn't even rounding to the nearest integer, just outright ignoring the decimals.
Is there a solution for this?

augustob wrote:Is there a solution for this?
Yes, but you won't like it. Crack open your UserChrome.css file (in ~/.mozilla/firefox/<garbage>.default/chrome/) and do something like this:
.chromeclass-menubar {
font-size: 10pt !important;
EDIT: To set the default font size for everything (not just the menu bar), use "*" instead of ".chromeclass-menubar".
