Windows personalization point size limit at 24 about open-dyslexic HOT 10 CLOSED

Odd. Are you using the most current version o opendyslexic? also, which Windows version?

from open-dyslexic.

I've installed 1.500 on both a Win Vista (SP2) and Win7 (SP1) and the behavior is the same. Win 8 seems not to make it possible to choose fonts for these items, or has hidden it where I can't find it. ;-)

Just got my hands on a Windows 7 machine for testing. Looking for whats causing it.

Thanks Abbie.

Testing in Windows XP and 7. Even though it only shows 24, any size can be entered into the box. It seems to be a Windows bug (or at least I'm pinning it on that), and this Windows feature has been dropped from Windows 8.
A registry hack can be used to override fonts in Windows 8, but this issue has no effect on that.

Closing.

I wasn't able to enter a different point size on my system. The dropdown only allows 24 points. I discovered that all of the fonts designated "Pro" have this same effect (Adobe Garamond Pro, Arno Pro, Trajan Pro, etc.) do the same. Don't know if that helps narrow the problem -- perhaps the way Windows treats "Pro" fonts...?

Maybe it's OTF related. Have you tried using the TTF files instead?

from open-dyslexic.

That was my next step. I hadn't seen the TTF download... will check that out.

TTF 2.1 works fine. Perhaps it is an OTF / Windows thing?

from open-dyslexic.

Thats likely it.
