Ugh- I'm sorry, I can't think of what else it might be. What is your IE zoom setting? I don't think that would affect IP tho. Did you mention already what versions of everything you have, in case someone else knows? IP 2007? Windows ... 7? IE version?

I've tried playing with IE text sizes. When I change them, the size of the the text control boxes change, but nothing happens to the text sizes in the general form area. I should point out that I am actually using Infopath 2010, not 2007 - but it shouldn't make a difference.

Yeah - it looks right when I open it in design - for example, the number for the step is not on a new line. And it looks to me like your font is the same size in both your screenshots, too - isn't it? It isn't like text settings in IE are up to something other than Medium?

Template is attached. Thank you very much for taking the time to look at this. I think the issue might be with Infopath / Office / Windows - every form is being displayed weirdly, even other people's templates I've downloaded.

Can you attach the template under the Options tab?

When I copied / pasted it might have distorted it a bit - but no I am only using one view.

Attached is a better example of how everything looks perfect in print view (right) but not in designer / filler (left).

So - do you have multiple views? One for print and one for filling in? It looks like the width of the layout table in your first screenshot is narrower than your print view....

It should be attached now. Not the greatest screenshot - but it shows how the text wraps onto the a second line on the left, whereas it all fits on one line when printed.

Attach your screenshot under the Options tab in a reply. :)

Infopath 2007 - Text Size / Rendering

I recently got a new computer, and all my forms that I developed on my old computer don't seem to render properly on the new one.This is true both in designer and filler. Changing the font size in IE does change the size of the control text boxes, but general text in the tables appears larger than it should be. However, everything appears properly in Print Preview. I've taken screen shots and showed them below. On the left is what it looks like in developer / filler / form preview. On the right is what it looks like when printed, in print preview, and what it always used to look like on my old computer. Note how text wraps to second line now when it used to not. I've tried changing monitor resolutions, windows text sizes, etc. I've spent hours trying to figure out what is going on - I am desperate for help on this one.
