Text not scaling in gimp.

Hi,
I am a new user to Gimp release 2.2.8. I have started using the text feature in Gimp. How can I make gimp scale the text to the size I want it? It just stays the same size on screen no matter how much editing I do with the tool options box.

Help much appreciated.

Leanne

Hi Leanne,

If you had tried changing the font size on the tool options, so it is a problem with the specific font you are using. Some kinds of fonts simply do not scale withthe mechanisms The GIMP uses. Try with other fonts. If that works, and you need some specific font that does not scale, you may try to find its file on the disk and convert it to some other type of font file.
