I have a really annoying problem in PS Elements 13. I want to add a batch watermark to copyright my photos. But even if I select the smallest font size 6 its enormous on my photos ! It worked great in Elements 11 so what is going wrong here? Why is the smallest font so large on my photo when in Elements 11 I was using a much larger font?

    You did not provide the resolution, but be that as it may, you have two other options.

    A. Type the information manually on the three files utilizing the type tool and the copyright symbol.

    B. Create a copyright brush. This is a very efficient way. Once created, one adds the information with a click of the mouse. You can place the copyright anywhere, utilize the foreground color, use the bracket keys on the keyboard to increase/decrease the brush size.  This is a good tutorial:

    Is the resolution of all of the photo files that you worked on in  PSEv.11, the same as as the ones you are working on now in PSEv.13?

    You can check that via Image>Resize>Image size, and read the resolution value in px/in.

    Please report back.
