Font size on TR's

Post by Jay521 »

Bill - I can't seem to make the font size work on my latest TR (Spread Eagle). When I am in edit mode, it displays correctly but in preview - and when I made it live - it all goes back to 11 pt. Specifically, the main heading and the stats stuff (all that is in bold) should have a larger font size. I know this has worked on my previous reports but it's been a while since I did one so maybe I'm screwing up somehow?

Thx - Jay

Hi Jay,

I'm guessing you copied some original text in from another report view because it had some styling information that was not part of the editor. I edited the report and removed the two problems using the "View Code" option.

should be all set

That's exactly what I did - I copied that stuff from my last report and pasted it into the new one. And I had done that with other reports with no problems. I did try setting the font sizes different but that didn't seem to make any difference. In the future, I will just key the text if it doesn't show up the way I think it should.

Thanks, Bill! You da man!

My pleasure!

Do you remember if you copied the raw text from the old report via the edit page OR straight from viewing the report. If it was the latter, the browser probably copied in extra styling.

I honestly don't recall if I copied it from the edit page or the view page. Sorry... Next report, I'll try it both ways and see what happens.

Thanks again!

Jay
