Photoshop Elements 11 Tiny Font

lleyba@gmail.com  wrote I have a new Dell laptop and I installed Photoshop Elements 11. When the program loads it is tiny. I can't read any of the font rendering it unusable. My computer is a Dell XPS 13 9350 Signature Edition running Windows 10 Home edition. I tried updating, but that didn't help at all with this issue. Any suggestions?

The high resolution displays required a lot of work form Microsoft and Adobe to work with the UI interface. The fonts and icons were displayed twice smaller as you noticed. That would have required to rewrite totally the software, so an acceptable solution has been found later (from Elements 13.1 on) to display an interface pixel on 4 pixels instead of one. There is an option to display the UI font sizes at 200% size. That's ok for real 4k diplays, but even if you have a recent Elements version, you may have problem if your display is not really 4k, which is probably what you have now...

So, the solution is to use the options of Windows to set your screen resolution to a lower value. For a laptop, even the HD resolution of 1920 x1080 may lead to small fonts depending on your display size in inches/cm.
