Windows 10: Why does Windows 11 paint limit text size to only 22 points?

Why does windows 11 Paint limit text size to only 22 points?

:)

 

Can't increase font size in Paint larger than 22

Windows 11 on new computer.

I can't increase the font size past 22 on the 'Type' feature in Paint. I have increased the text box and the size of the canvas. Neither of those options have worked. I have closed out of paint and gone back in and the issue still occurs. :/ Is there an update or driver update for Windows Paint? I use it for crafty things.

 

Typing numbers in Paint appear in different sizes.

Hi Maria Teresadel Castillo1,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

Appreciate your efforts to work on this issue.

• Are you aware of any changes made to the MS paint settings prior to this issue?
  

Follow these steps to check if that helps.

1. Open MS paint.
   
2. In the Home tab, click the Text tool which has the ‘A’ symbol.
   
3. Click inside the blank image, a text box will be displayed inside the blank image, for you to add text or numbers.
   
4. To insert text, type in the text box and click anywhere else on the page when you're done.
   
5. Once you see the text box, you will also see additional options to select the font, font size and other options. You can either select the same font size for all numbers or you can also change the font size for each number as
   you desire.
   

The Text tab opens automatically when you place the text box, and from there you can select a font, text size, color and other options such as bold, underlined, italic and strikethrough text formats. You can also make the text box opaque if you want.

Hope this helps and let us know how it goes.
