Posted: Thu Aug 14, 2003 6:15 pm Post subject: text size problem
ok my photoshop seems to have had a fit somewhere along the line.
even though i haven't changed any setting the text is coming out so small you cant even see it even when its set at 72 pt.
i have reinstalled till i am blue in the face and tried all sorts , I just cant figure out whats wrong, any ideas anyone? _________________ "Bugger destiny" said Nanny Ogg " lets go out and curse someone!!"
Second (this is more of an after the fact fix), once you type it out, use Ctrl T to select transform and drag a corner to make the text bigger (hold shift to keep proportions).
Third: What's your resolution per inch and the total size in inches of your image you are working on?
Fourth: Use a different font, not all fonts are the same size at 10 point.

first option is the only one that works, odd thing is its fine in image ready? secondly the resolution is set to the default thats not been changed.
thirdly it seems to have lost its styles ability too?? very odd all working except bevel and emboss parts of the styles, no matter where you put the settings thats not showing either, although this too works perfectly in image ready. having reinstalled it 5 times now, it is driving me mad, even when i reinstall after a shutdown its remembering the settings from when it was previously loaded?
as for the fonts it makes no difference what font is used, when i say its unreadable i mean the text is actually only about 1px high.

update on the styles issue, it appears to be only the preloaded styles and those i have downloaded ( they worked previously i have dozens)
if i make my own and save it as a new style, it seems to be ok? very odd, some of the settings i need to use distance wise , say for drop shadow seem exessive to get the effect i need.
at this point I am totally stumped as to what the problem is, all the preloaded styles work fine in image ready (thank the gods or i would be stuffed completely) but its a bit of a pain to have to keep swapping between the two. _________________ "Bugger destiny" said Nanny Ogg " lets go out and curse someone!!"

Turned out it WAS this, in the preferences, although I hadn't reset it so I assumed it was the default setting, odd thing was it reset itself after I downloaded and installed another adobe product ( I am sure these programmes conspire against me), so as soon as it was back to normal I noticed the res was different.
styles are working again too, all very strange, but at least I dont have to swap back and forth anymore for text.
Oh and the new Prog? Atmosphere.........any one else tried it yet? its nowhere near the standard of Bryce or 3d max, but its quite good for basic scenes. _________________ "Bugger destiny" said Nanny Ogg " lets go out and curse someone!!"
I noticed the same changes when I installed illustrator after having 7.0 for a while.
