Q: 2015 Calendar font for the month in IPhote is too small.  How do I make it larger?

I have created a 2015 calendar in IPhoto but the month is printed in a tiny font.  I can't make it larger. The 2014 calendar used a large font for the month.  How can I resolve this so can actually read the name of the month without my glasses?

    Have you tried the "Big Date" theme for the calendar?

    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos, create a test calendar with the same theme and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?

    Yes it worked.  Unfortunately I had to do a work around to make today's deadline so I could not use your suggestion, but next time I will know.  Thank you.

    That was just a test.  It showed that your current library is damaged and needs repairing. Do the following to your current library:

     

    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.

    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
