Hello Corinne,  

I understand how frustrating it can be to deal with display issues, especially after setting up a new computer. Let's try to resolve the font size inconsistency between the Source and Target segments in Trados Studio 2019. Here are some steps you can follow:  

**Step 1:** Check Font Adaptation Settings  

- Go to **File** -> **Options** -> **Editor** -> **Font Adaptation**.  

- Ensure that the **Adapt Font Sizes** option is enabled. You can set the desired font sizes for both Source and Target text here.  

**Step 2:** Adjust Display Scaling  

- Right-click on the Trados Studio icon on your desktop or Start menu.  

- Select **Properties** and then go to the **Compatibility** tab.  

- Check the box for **Disable display scaling on high DPI settings**. This can help with display issues on high-resolution screens.  

**Step 3:** Reset Window Layout  

- In Trados Studio, go to the **View** tab and select **Reset Window Layout**. This can help restore any default settings that may have been altered.  

**Step 4:** Check Windows Display Settings  

- Go to **Control Panel** -> **Appearance and Personalization** -> **Display**.  

- Ensure that the scaling is set to **100%** or **125%**. If it’s set higher, it may affect how Trados Studio displays fonts.  

**Step 5:** Create a New Project  

- If the issue persists, try creating a new project to see if the problem carries over. Sometimes, project settings can cause display issues.  

If you continue to experience problems, consider updating your license when you have the chance, as this may resolve some underlying issues.  

I hope these steps help you get back to a comfortable working environment! If you have any further questions or if the issue persists, please let me know.

Please reset the user profile. Go to File -> Setup -> User profiles and reset the user profile. When asked to backup the profile, use a decent location and a meaningful name. After that restart Studio. When Studio starts next time, reset window layout. With the file opened in Editor go to View and select the option "Reset window layout". This should help. Now you can adapt the font sizes.

Thank you Jerzy Czopik Jerzy, the possible options are

Change user profile 

Reset user settings 

Which one would I go for?

Thank you!

Corinne Durand 

Reset user settings. This should remove all errors possibly present in the profile now.

Thank you Jerzy Czopik I have now tried that, but it has made no difference, the Source and Target are still different sizes as before (the most annoying thing to my brain is that) and the "Reset Window Layout" has not made a difference (I had tried that before too, although had not mentioned it in my post). 

Should I try uninstall and reinstall Studio? I am at the start of this project and this is only my second one on this computer. It could be the easiest option?

HiCorinne Durand 

Uninstalling the program will not resolve the issue.

A reset might help you with this.  To do this just close Trados Studio 2019 and then delete these folders:

%appdata%\Trados\Trados Studio\Studio15\

%appdata%\Trados\Trados Studio\15\

You will lose your plugins, and also your settings, but your projects and other resources will remain untouched. Putting the plugins back is trivial via the integrated appstore.

If you can't find these folders then you need to unhide your hidden files/folders:

Then restart Trados Studio and see if that helped.

Kind regards,

Thank you Ana Sabo , I will try that now.

OkayAna Sabo , I have deleted these folders and reopened Studio, Reset Layout and tries again to adjust size, and it has made no difference...

However, it seems that it is only the target segments that I have confirmed/already committed to the TM which are affected by the size difference to the Source, the new segments are the same size as the source, so I will get on with it and adjust size if the output font is affected.

On a different note, I am unsure why the system thinks I am on a trial version when it seems like I have activated this licence on this computer 3 days ago (I am sure I deactivated the one on the damaged computer by following the process in my account) but it is unrecognized when I open Studio. I would take any suggestions on this issue too!

Thank you in anticipation,

Corinne
