    Help with "Text is very small"

    http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...09#post1898609

    I play on the PC at 1920x1080 using a 35" TV and it is very difficult to read the text in dialogue boxes. The font used is just too small.

    I suspect PS4 users are suffering the same problem: big TV, tiny font. However, I don't have a PS4 test account. Can anyone with access to the PS4 forums please post the contents of what YoshiP said? It would be nice to see when a fix would be available for the PC users as well.

    In your chat box, there is a little gear icon that will access your log window. This lets you select which chat channels appear in your box, color, and etc. It will also let you change the font size shown in your chat boxes. This only affects your chat log and not the text from the cinematics.

    Thanks for offering your help. However, my issue is precisely with the text from the cinematics.
    It is very very small when playing at 1080p (my 35" TV's native resolution). I suspect that's what many PS4 users encountered as well.

    I don't want to quote the post, because there might be NDA stuff, but I'll say that it wouldn't help you. It's basically "We're working on it."

    I have the same issue also on the PC. I really want to read the dialogue for the main story at least but doing so hurts my eyes so bad. I've started just skipping the text altogether. *sigh* Hopefully it gets fixed at some point.

    I was able to make mine bigger. I'm going off memory but I think you click the dialog box then you press ctrl + home on the keyboard.
