    Hello,
    Maybe someone can help me with a very strange problem.
    Text in only WP forms and editor html/code view has become tiny on macOS Sierra, in Safari, Firefox and Chrome.
    When i test on another computer it’s normal.
    And if i try other non WP-forms the text is normal.
    So it seems to be only this computer, all browsers and only in WP-forms and editor code view.
    It looks like this when i started filling this form.

    Does anyone have any tips?

    Thanks!

    Jakerlund,
    Strange indeed. Looks like you did a great job isolating the issue to the computer itself. Perhaps do a DNS flush? I could tell you how to do that on a PC but not MacOS. Also test the page in Chrome’s incognito window on your Mac (CTRL+SHIFT+N) to ensure an earlier version is not cached.

    Also check out the answers in this post:

    Lastly, even tho it seems computer-specific, click the TEXT tab in the WYSIWYG window shown in your screenshot and make extra sure there are no other CSS or size code behind the scenes.

    Thanks for the reply @mccroryj
    I did the DNS flush and tested Chrome in incognito but no difference.
    This is super wierd, all browsers on this computer macOS Sierra, and any WP form or editor.
    I have to zoom in a lot to even see what i type here.
    If i try Joomla or any other editor or form it’s normal with all browsers.
    I’ve never ever stumbled upon something like this before.

    This is hwo CHrome/incgognito looks like after dns flush.

    I found the error 🙂
    It was a system font that for some reason had been duplicated and the first was either broken or plain wrong.
    That font was used in the WP-editor.
    I deleted the faulty font and everything is back to normal.

    This is the correct and faulty font.
