I'm fairly new to photoshop, so I don't know if this is a simple question or not. :]

When I try adding text to a new document, it becomes extremly small. It happens with all text sizes. I'm pretty sure I accidently changed one of the settings for the text, but I'm not sure which one.





Inside the circle, is the word 'CLAIRE' written in size 14 font, I don't know why it comes out so tiny..
Any help is appreciated.

Have you tryed a different font?

You might be using a font that Photoshop doesn't like.

Ok, lets see...

What is the document size and resolution?
(ie A 14 point type in a LARGE document size will appear to be tiny in relation to the big picture)

Have you tryed making the text say.... 100 point?

Not quite sure what you meant right here: 14 point type in a LARGE document size will appear to be tiny

But here is the document size.



I don't know if its supposed to be grayscale, but the text became smaller before I changed the color mode.

I might be wrong.... but I think if you change the resolution to 72 all will be right again...

Ah, still didn't work. With 72, I can't even see the small line anymore.

OK, I'm gonna suggest one more thing and then I'm lost...

Try trashing your prefs file:
Quit Phtotshop and then when you restart it hold down ctr+shift+alt+W while launching PS... you'll be prompted to delete your prefs file

tell it yes and then see what you've got
