Font sizes are too small / increase available sizes
Raul Alfredo Tello
A presentation is not always projected on an appropriate screen, often available walls and even on a smart TV are used. In these cases, having an appropriate font size makes a difference, this could be added to the card configuration, I think that the option available in this regard is not enough to achieve an appropriate display of the content of the presentation.

Сделать возможность выставить минимальный размер шрифта по api. Созданные проекты на телефоне невозможно прочитать, шрифты слишком маленькие.

Larger font sizes for projected slides
Shawn Devine
I often produce slides that will be projected in large meeting spaces. The defaults for many card options seem to be very small font sizes. It would be great to have an option that defaulted to larger font sizes for this purpose.

hi Shawn Devine, have you tried increase the font size in our present mode? If you present in gamma we have font size controls?
Shawn Devine
Nik Payne (Gamma design) Hi Nik - typically I need to export to PPT and provide the files to others in that format, so presenting in gamma is not an option.

Shawn Devine helpful. Thank you!

Inconsistent text sizing occurs after entering the initial prompt, despite clear instructions specifying font size and how to adapt slides when text exceeds limits.

I am working to use Gamma in a consistent way by training my AI agent to generate prompts that align with our school’s expectations for slide design and lesson delivery. These prompts are informed by the latest EEF research on effective teaching and learning. However, despite several iterations and clear instructions specifying consistent font sizes and the need to split slides when content exceeds readability limits, Gamma continues to produce slides using the normal text size. This makes the slides difficult for children to read in a classroom setting. I am therefore seeking a reliable way to ensure all generated slide decks maintain a consistent, accessible font size and adhere to our presentation standards.

Hi A Z! Thank you for your feedback. Something that could be causing this is our "Scale to fit" feature. We will resize the text on your card so that it matches the standard 16:9 slide format. Turning this off should partially solve your issue. Our team is also looking into improving this feature so that text remains legible!
You can learn more about scale to fit with our tutorial video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTvVEPEJUdE

Has Gamma given us the option of increasing font sizes? When we're presenting on a TV monitor and some of the audience is 100 feet away, it's impossible to read the text.
Moreover, when we select "Headings" as a way to enlarge text, it converts the text to "ALL CAPS" and boldens it!

Font is too small
Joe Schlabach
I would say 90% of the font is smaller than 24 point and that ruins a great presentation. It is still a good PowerPoint, I will simply have to spend a lot of time fixing the tiny 18 and 19 point font.

Thanks Joe Schlabach. This is a problem we're looking to prioritize soon
Turning off scale to fit in page setup (or bumping the base font size to L) could potentially help

This is a critical component for educators to meet ADA accessibility requirements. Fonts have to be a minimum size in the document regardless of the presentation modality. Being able to set the minimum font size for headings, sub-headings, bullet points, and body copy would improve the functionality of Gamma immensely.

Setting to set minimum text size before card creation
Robert Bishop
A setting that sets the minimum size of the text. I'm an English teacher and use gamma to create presentations to be shown on the screen. Sometimes I only have a tv so need to use large text as a minimum. This would be a great setting for teachers.
