[access-uk] Re: Font Size

Excellent thanks Jonathan that worked but perhaps you might explain a little to 
me, I thought that just referred to print preview.  Actually I did not go to 
Tools but to View.

  Hi Eleanor,


  Can you please just positively confirm that you have tried both my 
suggestions regarding the zoom size?


  I'll paste them below in case they got lost - please let us know whether this 
fixes it:


  Toolbar > View > Zoom > select 100% (or bigger!)


  Assuming you have a scrollwheel mouse, press CTRL on the keyboard, and roll 
the wheel down to zoom out, up to zoom in (applies to most apps on a PC).


  Regards,


  Jonathan

    I appreciate what you are saying Jackie and took on board your 
suggestion/recommendation in any case.  What happened was that someone 
converted a pdf file for me into a word file.  I then tried to copy and paste 
from that file which had the tiny on-screen writing and it seems to be 
happening now in every word document I open.  The default is set correctly to 
Ariel and the font size to 12.  Very strange indeed.

      Hi Eleanor

      Then I honestly don't know.  I have no sight to notice if the size on 
screen is diminishing, only when I check the style and attributes I am using 
within Word itself.

      Jackie I have tried what you said re the font size and it has made no 
change on screen.  It is coming out OK in print but I want to get it back to 
the correct way on screen.  With my magnification the font is absolutely minute.

        Hi Eleanor

        If you use Microsoft Word, go into the font menu, change your size to 
the
        number you want, and tab along to the default button.  You will be asked
        if you want to make the style and size default, so just accept, and it
        should open in that way each time.

        Something has happened to my font size and though it is saying Ariel 12 
it
        is absolutely tiny on the screen.  I think something happened when I
        opened a document with this type of writing and now it is happening in 
all
        my word documents.  It must be a default somewhere that I need to 
change.
        It looks a bit like a subscript or footer type of print on the screen.
        Any ideas please.

        Eleanor
