Thanks George. So, to be precise, you are suggesting that the standard ability to expand the font to 12 or 14, whatever it might be, can be overridden by some means which is in the manual. Thanks.

My wife uses a larger font and seems to be quite happy with the layout. But don't ask me to ask her how she did it, or she'll just throw the manual at me, and say "RTFM yourself!"

She has looked at a Kindle for her own use. She has found that the standard font size increments available do not make the text quite big enough for unstressed reading. Also, she does not like to use the zoom facility as then she needs to constantly use her fingers to move the screen between the left and right side of the image. Apart from using the standard font expansion facility available in the Kindle is there any other way of expanding the font and retain the Kindle facility of changing the page layout to match the font size? Thanks in advance.
