Font size of Comment Text not changing
I added some Comments to my document and formatted the Style "Comment Text"
to font size 8. The rest of my document uses size 10. However, when I visually inspect my document, it looks like there is no difference in my Comment Text size and my document text size, i.e. they both look Size 10. Can anybody provide an explanation for this? |

Font size of Comment Text not changing
There are three styles associated with comments. Are you sure you edited the
right one? Comment Reference Comment Subject Comment Style Select the comment text in question and see what the toolbar style display says is the style. With it selected you can edit it using format style. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Melissa wrote: I added some Comments to my document and formatted the Style "Comment Text" to font size 8.

Font size of Comment Text not changing
When I view the style in the Format Style toolbox, it looks correct, i.e.
font size 8. I applied this same style "COmment Text" to my text but it still looks like it's font size 10. I've even tried "Clear Formatting" several times and applying the "Comment Text" style.

Font size of Comment Text not changing
Frankly I don't know why this should be happening. It is not normal
behaviour. May I suggest that you try renaming your normal.dot file to oldnormal.dot and (temporarily) remove any add-ins and see what happens.

Font size of Comment Text not changing
A couple of simple questions just in case.
You say you have confirmed that your comment text is size 8 but have you confirmed that your other text (which looks the same) is actually size 10? Are both comment and other text in the same font? What does it look like if you set the comment text font size to 10? -- Enjoy, Tony "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ... Frankly I don't know why this should be happening. It is not normal behaviour.

Font size of Comment Text not changing
Tony,
I even modified my Comment Text to size 20 but it looks the same as my document text (Normal style). When I'm typing my comment text, I can see, in the toolbar, that the font size is 16. When I click within my document, among my Normal text, this toolbar shows font size 10. So it looks like it's recognising my formatting changes...
