Text too small when adding a song

Todd Frusti

I need help with my first full service using Proclaim. . . 

When adding a song (cutting a pasting), I only get very small text.  It seems like it will get up to about a 35 pt font, but that's about it.  I've attached a screen shot hoping it will be helpful.  You can see from the picture that there should be more than enough room for the text to fit on the slide.

Thanks for your help.

The reason the text is so small is that Song items will make sure to fit all of the text you enter onto the slide without changing your formatting.

This means that very long lines single will therefore shrink the text so that it all fits. Your 2nd, 3rd, and 4th verses are all actually one continuous line of text.

Try adding line breaks (with the enter key) at breaks in those verses and you'll see the behavior that  you're expecting. 

For example:

Calv’ry’s mournful mountain climb;    There, adoring at His feet,Mark that miracle of time,    God’s own sacrifice complete.“It is finished!” hear Him cry;Learn from Jesus Christ to die.

Should be:

Calv’ry’s mournful mountain climb;    

There, adoring at His feet, Mark that miracle of time,    

God’s own sacrifice complete.

“It is finished!” hear Him cry;

Learn from Jesus Christ to die.

Hope that helps,
