How can I LOCK my text size chosen because he seems to have a mind of your own

I am on Windows 7 and does not reach my chosen text size,

Hello Alan,.

There are 2 different things. First, you must set your display to 125% resolution. To do this, go to control panel, click display and when that opens a new window, click on the left menu, "set text size custom (PPP). That should save your custom DPI setting @ 125% (or whatever you set it to).

The second parameter is more problematic and is something that you must define in each application which can be a problem for you. I have a similar problem with my desktop computer and need to set my monitor HD @ 150% to be able to clearly see the text. The problem is that many applications are not "DPI aware", which means that they don't adjust automatically for screens high definition.

To work around this problem, right click on an icon on the desktop and select Properties. When this window opens, select the Compatibility tab in the top row.  Scroll the list of the boxes until the last of them and mark, 'turn off the staggering high DPI settings display', then click on apply, OK and OK.

Try and let me know how you fare.

Kind regards

  • How can I get the text size to stay the same size?

    Is it possible to give the text a height fixed and any parameter, the user has their value of text size

    It will not change the size of the text?

    Well, it is possible but only if you use Flash or images instead of text.  But for people on ultra large screens with less than perfect vision, not being is not able to increase the size of the text is cruel.

    If your text is spilling containers or collide in the other elements on the page when the text size is increased, you are doing something fundamentally wrong. Read the Page layout 101

  • How can you change a text in an image?

    How can you change a text in an image?

    Hi Jasper,.

    It depends on how the text has been staged, and what has been done with the image after that.

    A quick test - what happens when you zoom in on, or enlarge the image?

    If the text retains its edges when amplified, then it can probably be edited separately from the image. If the text begins to show pixelation on the edges (like the picture), then there is no text to change, what looks like adding text is actually part of the image and can only be changed in the same way that you can change anywhere in the image.

    Here is an example:

    The photo is a photo (jpeg format), inserted in a Pages document created with the essay template. White text in the upper left corner of the photo is placed in a text box. To put the photo on this page (and the text on and around it) has been converted to a PNG file. When it is enlarged on this screen, the text finally a pixelated image...

    .. .the easily noticed in the thin relates diagonal 'o'.

    In Pages, however, the text and the picture are separated, and the text is a vector image - mathematically trained and scalable.

    The text here is contained in a text box and the text box was grouped with the photo. To change the text (in Pages), I need to:

    • Click on the text.
      Handles will appear in the corners of the selection.
      That click you select either the entire image OR just simply the text box.
      • IF the handles are blue x characters, the selection is locked
        Go organize (menu) > Unlock
        Sectionals unlocked handles are small white squares.
    • IF the selection includes the entire image
      • Go to the menu, rearrange and choose ungroup
        If the choice to separate is not available, the text may be part of the image and uneditable as text.
        Try to click twice (separated from the clicks, not double click).
        If the insertion point (|) is now in the text, the text is editable as text.
        Change the text.
    • IF the selection looks like a text box and does not the whole image
      • Click on the text to place the insertion point (]) in the text
        Change the text.

    Image showing the insertion point in the text in a text box on the image:

    Tim has manipulated the colorful side of the tab of this Q.

    If you ask about the text than the tabs labels, they are all the same.

    If you really want and can settle their definition at run time, you can use

    Advance > Layout tab > image only and use your own image to make it look like different sizes and fonts.

    This is way beyond what can be done with PDF, except by copying the text and make a new document in Word or something.

    That said, Adobe Reader on Windows may display the text AS IF the PDF file has been divided. It's the text reformatting. It may be possible in Reader for iPhone, you can try the player for ios forum.
