Copy and Paste Greek Font Size

Hey guys.

One of the things that I've been annoyed by for awhile is trying to copy and paste any text and it always being bigger than I want.

As you can see below, the Greek word ταύτῃ is bigger than the rest of the font. I have to change the size and font every time if select it the way above.

Anyone know the fix to this. I don't want to have to change the size and front every time I copy and paste the Greek text and I don't want to have to click over to another resource every time to get this selection so it will copy and paste to the right font and size.

Thanks!

In case you have not checked these yet in Settings:

Do you have your annotations and resource default fonts set to the same size?
What is the font setting for Greek and other languages (size?)

If they are not the same size, adjust and try again.

I don't see anything in program settings that references "annotations" font set and size. Only "Default Resource Text Size" and it doesn't do it like the notes do "10 point" or "12 point", it does it by percentage.

I have the Greek font set as "default" but again, no place for the size of the font.

Maybe I'm not understanding you though. Please clarify if I'm not.

Thanks.

Right, I remembered incorrectly what size settings were available. After toying a bit with it, this is what I found out:

The fonts you can select for Greek differ in comparative size. Compare Gentium (smaller) with Arial Unicode (larger). It looks like you have the latest and it does appear larger than the default annotation 12 pt size font.

You have two options around this:

You change the Greek font. Personally, I prefer Arial and you may too. So perhaps # 2 would be best:
You can change your annotation file default font size by changing it when you open the file but not within a new or old note. Just open your notes files and change the size. Then it will be default for these notes henceforth. You can thus set it higher to match the Greek. The whole thing might look too large then, but you can remedy this by using the zooming slider to put it to a zoom size lower.

Does that work for you?

Changing it to 12 point and zooming out did it! Great idea. Thanks Francis!!
