Comments on text are too small

[Valente]

Hello. I am starting the work of inserting comments on a text in Word 2008,
in those fancy colorful bubbles on the right side of the document (text is
in .doc). Problem is that comment text is too small. I tried to change font
side in the styles manager (format --> style) and in the toolbar, but
nothing really changes. My comments are inserted in the bubbles in a text
size that looks like 6 points. Changing to another font and size have no
effect.
This is a known issue? There is something I can do?

Now I set the style of commented text to font Verdana 72 (!) and it is a bit
more readable.

Using Word 2008 on OS X Tiger 10.4.11, mac mini intel core duo.

Try increasing the font size of the Balloon Text style. You¹ll want to go
to the same dialog, the Styles dialog via Format, Style. Choose Balloon
Text, Modify, choose the font size, OK, and apply. That should increase the
size of the text for the Comment inside the balloon.

Thanks, it solved my issue. I just didn't knew about that balloon text style
option.
