Why won't the font sizes change when you change the size?
When I try to change the font size from small to x-small, nothing happens.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Hi CSBarret
I just went into one of my 1.0 wikis and tried this. It' s working ok for me. Can you tell us what web browser and operating system you are using?
I’m hoping this helps

Inappropriate?It's possible that if you already have it at the smallest displayable font, it may not go any smaller. -
Inappropriate?No no, for example, when I highlight a selection of text and select 'Normal' for the font style and then 'small' for font size, it might work. But then when I highlight the next selection of text, if it is already 'small', when I try to change it to 'x-small' it wont change the size. It does this sporadically and in both directions (small to x-small and small to large).
Some of the text is copied and pasted from a word document while some has been written using the PBWiki text editor.
I am using Firefox and Windows XP. PBWiki is also giving me problems with the PDF creator (are there known problems with that feature?)....It generates an error message or does funny things with the HTML.
Does PBWiki use something else to control the font sizes other than the underlying HTML?
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?It's possible that the editor is getting mixed up with the multiple layers of span tags created for the font sizes. In PBwiki 2.0, you can try using the new "unformat" button (it looks like an eraser) to strip all formatting on a block of text, then choose the new size based on that.

Inappropriate?I think that's probably it (the editor seems to create a lot of span tags). My wiki is at sextonreference.pbwiki.com. I can't seem to find the 'unformat' button when I switch to the editor. Am I using PBWiki 2.0, or do I need to switch somehow?
I’m unsure

You're wiki is still using PBwiki 1.0. A 2.0 wiki looks like this: http://support-test.pbwiki.com/ . The "remove formatting" button was recently added to PBwiki 2.0. We are not currently migrating 1.0 wikis to 2.0, but we should be doing it soon. Thanks for your patience! -
Inappropriate?Hi there!
If you want to use something similar to the Remove Formatting functionality of PBwiki 2.0, you can cut and paste the text of your wiki page into a program like Notepad.
Notepad renders everything as plain text, so when you paste all that back into your wiki, it will be with a clean slate.
I hope this helps!

Inappropriate?Haha, that worked really well actually. A little tedious, but does the job!
Thanks!
I’m thankful
