Bridge screens text cropping

[Ian Brewster]

I have started having "text cropping" occurring in a number of screens in CS4 Bridge. I presume I have changed some setting but am at a loss on how to correct it - see the attached screen shot. Can anyone please advise?

I've seen this before, but can't remember the cause. Does it have something to do with your Windows text size? There's a control panel which makes everything bigger, isn't there?

I'd check Control Panel > Display, and make sure it's on 100%, not "Medium 125%".

Thanks Damo, I tried that but no change. There may be some other font size settings?

Bugger, that's all I had, sorry. I wish I could remember the solution - I know I've read about it before.

Is it only Bridge and ACR? What about in dialogs in Photoshop itself?

Hi Damo,

Thanks for the persistence. I'm only aware of it in Bridge; a quick look in PS didn't show anything. I've Googled a bit but haven't hit gold yet.

Damo,

You've solved it! I use Windows XP and there are two settings under Display: Appearance > Font Size - where I went from Extra Large Font to Normal; that didn't work. There is also Settings, Advanced button > Font Size 120 dpi (125%) or 96 dpi (100%); changing to this latter fixed it!
