    Default Text Changes when uploading

    When I preview my text in Xara 7 premium, it looks just fine, but when I uploaded, it shrank.
    Also, is there a way to prevent the text from resizing if I resize a text box in Xara?
    My website is www.ripplesministry.com and the text in question is for the news story.

    I am new to Xara and the website is as of yet unfinished.

    Thanks in adavance for your comments/advice.

    Make sure you are working with web safe fonts. They are the fonts at the very top of the font list.

    If your default text size has been changed in your browser, the fonts may not display as they do in WD7.

    To resize a text block, use the Text Tool and drag the red squares in the corners. This resizes the text block and does not resize the text.

    You have stretched your text horizontally in WD. This is not supported in HTML.

    Grouped text is exported as bitmap. This is much more wysiwyg, but it's not a text anymore with all the consequences.

    When I resize my text box, does it by default change the size of the text in it? If so, is there any place to change that?

    If you resize your text box with selector tool, the text is resized as well. If you do so with the text tool, the font size remains the same.
