Adding captions

I use PhotoPlus v5 for editing and adding captions, and it works fine except
for one puzzling thing. If I add captions at say 28 point Arial sometimes
this gives very tiny letters, but at other times 28 point produces huge
lettering. There seems to be no pattern or reason for this. Can anyone
through some light on this please? Thanks. John

And yet one more variation on the most popular question of all time....how
big is a pixel?

How can the program know how big to make type if it doesn't even know how
big the print will be?

I don't do anything of this sort so I cannot be specific (I use InDesign
when I need to mix photos and type)....but if you size your photo for
printing first....say 8x10 and 300ppi....then if you add type it will be the
same each time.
