New PartsWizard Type trouble

[gb_craftsman]

When I access the type tool in PW 2 the type comes in way too large and is out of the image viewing area.
Changing type size doesn't seem to help.
Anyone having this trouble?

Greg,
Zoom screen all the way out 1st, then select the text tool. Click on the screen and type something. If it is too big, select the typed text (must be highlighted) and THEN change the value for size in the toolbox screen. It should maintain your last selected text size value from there forward.

Hello Everyone,

I've been working with Part Wizard and I have always had to do this. But anyhow, when I use the text tool and give it a size, lets say 3 inches, it always comes in smaller. I have to transform vectors and then resize them. Is this just part of the font file conflict or is there something I am missing. I am still using the first version of PW.

Fonts seldom measure stated size. I have been told it is size of tallest letter to lowest part of yqp or other letter.
