Xfce4 fonts are too big for some applications

Hi there,
overall, my fonts are just fine. However, in some applications (panel and thunar from what I've noticed so far), the fonts are about twice as big. I assume those are applications which are started quite early.
I'm on a 4k monitor, xfce4 desktop environment, dpi set to 96 in the xorg conf.
Any ideas are appreciated

I have done both, doesn't fix it unfortunately
EDIT:
I just tried AGAIN and it worked... Dont understand why but its fine now. For everyone wondering:
- disable custom dpi
- close appearance
- enable again
- restart
is what worked for me.

Sending iphone Pictures in texts which are too big for some Smartphones

When sending pictures in texts there used to be an option of 3 different size formats. Small/Medium/Large. There is only one available now which is too big on some smartphones.
The HTC Wildfire has a restriction of 300kb and a text with picture I tried to send, could not be sent directly to the phone, instead it went to a web address to view. I also tried to share contact details with picture and the file was also too big. I also tried the first picture to another old Nokia without problem.
Can anyone tell me if this is a problem with the latest Apple Software? Will they be fixing it so that we can select the picture size again to allow for picture size restrictions so we can send smaller photos to actually share our pictures.
Anyone know?
Has anyone had the same problem?
Any answers welcome. Many thanks in advance. I hope they sort it quickly.

Thanks again Chris,
I've just tried to see if I could get any more info from the 3gs User Guide and also found some MMS Info on page 325.
It also has some info on adding Photos on page 333
If MMS isn't supported by your carrier, camera image doesn't appear and you can't send photos or videos ... This doesn't count in my case as 02 support this.
Send a Photo or Video: Tap Camera Image. Then tap 'take Photo or Video', or tap 'Choose Existing' and then select an item from a photo album and tap choose.
The size limit of attachments is determined by your carrier. If necessary, iphone may compress the photo or video.
Well this clearly doesn't work for the HTC but I'm still more inclined to think that perhaps the Apple updates have removed the size reduction options. The carrier (02) is able to take the MMS from me but the family member with the HTC who is using the 02 network through Tesco needs investigating why there is a limit to kb's.
I shall look into this and see what I can find out. Perhaps it's a combination of the Apple Software and the Carrier people are using which is causing the Picture problems.

ODI-40406: Bytes are too big for array error

Hello ,
I am trying to load a flat file from a table. I am working on ODI 11G.
Following are performed.
Staging area different from SOurce is checked.
IKM used is : IKM SQL to File Append
Truncate is True
No LKM is used.

There is a possibility of mismatch of datatype, that can cause the problem.
Say in ODI model, you have defined a 'Date type' field to be stored as 'String' however at the time of mapping in 'Interface', no conversion happens (from date to string) for this particular object. This causes the problem.
The original query remains valid at DB side (fires for datetype) however fails while integrating (anticipating String which may be longer than defined in modelbecause of your NLS setting in DB). Therefore the best way would be to apply conversion for that particular field (in this case, use TO_CHAR(Date type,'Desired Date Format').

ODI-40406: Bytes are too big for array

I am getting the following error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: ODI-40406: Bytes are too big for array
I am trying to a file to file mapping and all of my columns match in size. Does anyone have any ideas what this problem could be? I am getting an error when it tries to perform an integration step while trying to create the target table. I am assuming it is something wrong with one of my datastores

Fonts are TOO BIG

It gripes me that when listing the podcast recordings that are in each podcast group, that the font size used by the iPhone is way too big and you cannot read very much of the description.
The phone has such great image quality that even small fonts are easy to read, and they could show much more of the description.

Score printout: files are too big for printout since Pro 7

Hi there,
I have a serious problem printing scores with Pro7: the files appear to be too big, so I can't print them. When I try to print a simple 1 page part, I get the error: "printer out of memory" and I have a HP Laserjet with 8 Mb memory. A PDF from a 3 page part made in Logic 6.3 is 102Kb, a PDF from the same 3 page part opened in Pro7 is 2,4Mb! Everything seems normal: page setup 100% etc.
When I open a song made in Pro7 with Logic 6.3, the files are much much smaller. Does anybody know what's wrong, now I can't print scores with Pro7!
Thanx, Peter

Hello Rohan,
Thanks for your effort. I created a PDF-file with a totally different printerdriver. The result is the same: I get a very large file. A 3 page part PDF-file is 2,4 Mb, also with the other fake driver. I'm used to send PDF-files of sheet music through the internet and files this big are no option.
And very annoying: I can't print out scores using Pro7!
Best regards,

Uploaded iOS 4, now Iphone fonts are too big

I uploaded the iOS 4 software onto my iPhone 3GS and now everything is too big. any idea how to get it all back to normal size? any help is appreciated. thanks

zoom was set to on when it uploaded software. got it fixed.

Yikes - Display fonts are too big!!

I have a G6 iMac and all of a sudden the fonts on every page are huge. It seems like I am in some kind of zoom mode. Any clue how to fix this?
Thanks

Well, I'm not sure exactly what you mean. What
"page"? Is it only happening with web sites, or does
it happen everywhere? Is it just the text, or is
everything zoomed?
If it's just the web, and you're using Safari, go to
its preferences, click the Appearance tab and change
the font sizes. If it's everything, go to System
Preferences and check the Displays settings
(specifically, make sure that the resolution hasn't
changed to a lower one) and the Universal Access
settings (which have a zoom mode).
If none of this fits, give us more details.
This happens in all applications and browsers....Safari and Firefox so it must be some kind of system setting. Checked Universal settings, font size is set to 12 pt. Geez, I am stumped. My Mac is an iBook but this new whopper is my sister's....

Can i share imovie theater clips that are too big for icloud?

I have transferred my old vhs tapes to .mov, edited them in iMovie, and added them to iMovie Theater (most of which are over 15mins so I know they can't be shared via icloud) and wish to gift these larger non icloud clips to my kids so they can add them to their own mac pro's. One child is in at home so I have access to his laptop, the other lives overseas with his mac pro.
Can this be done, and how?

With Yosemite you can use mailDrop for files up to 5 GB (Mail Drop limits - Apple Support). You can also use Dropbox or similar cloud services.

Why is it that the wallpapers are too big for the screen? I liked how in iOS 6 that you could make it whatever size you wanted. Please Please Please bring that back and you will have one happy customer!!!

Is there is a reason why pictures in iOS 7 don't work well with setting your backgrounds??
This needs to be changed back to iOS 6 style for setting backgrounds, otherwise everything else is good.

"Why" - because Apple designed it that way, probably to allow for the motion-parallax effect in the iOS 7 home screen. It has been this way since iOS 7 was released 6 months ago. Why are you first noticing it now?

I would like to change my iPhoto resoluttion on Mac. The pictures are too big for emailing and chaning my Facebook profile picture.

A document page opens that is too big for the display and runs off the end of the monitor

How do you fix a problem where document pages open that are too big for the display and runs off the end of the monitor? The borders are off the monitor so there is no window edge to grab and adjust.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

One hot mail e mail account the screen/font is too big

I have multiple e mail accounts that are linked. One of the accounts now has a font size too big for the screen. I cannot view anything without moving the bars up and down or left and right. Very annoying. When I go that e mail account with internet explorer the font size, screen is normal for that e mail account just like all the others. What do I do to get firefox to display the screen in default or normal size?

hi bee, thankyou for your trying to help, but unfortunately you missed a key word in my question. I am asking "mailbox" pane.
your answer is for the 3rd pane, the email message itself. i have no issue with that. properties has not changed in teh upgrade to maverick OS.
the 2nd pane (message listing) and 1st pane (listing of mailbox) HAS CHANGED in upgrade to maverick OSX.
what i learnt from apple support is:
pane 2: listing of what is in mailbox. -- was possible to change font in classic style. can continue to do this in maverick osx ONLY if you choose the option retain "classic style" under properties/view. else changing the setting in your screenshot has NO IMPACT in the new user interface. so that in my book is bad coding. defect.
pane 1: listing of mailbox -- not possible. and got uglier in maverick OS as now the font is even bigger. plain ugly and needs to be retified. i have about 10 mailboxes so all my screenspace is gone with just the mailboxes and requires scrolling to folders. boring....
