Title: Font sizes - display way too big
Post by: wmike1503 on August 04, 2014, 12:36:20 PM
Hi all,

Just trying to get to grips with Scribus.

I have an A4 page and am trying to place text frames on the page.  Insert a text frame - no problem, however, for instance, if I then insert text sized at 12pt - it is enormous on the page - looking more like 40 to 50 pt.  am I missing something obvious here?

Thanks,

Mike

Hi Mike.

Any chance that you can supply the Scribus file (the SLA) and the exported PDF for comparison?

You may need to use "File -> Collect for Output..." to include the font you're using with the SLA (if it's not a "standard" font).

P.S. You haven't got your zoom set to a large value by mistake have you? (It's easily done.)
