Thanks, Amy.

It sounds like that as a scanner I really don't need to fiddle with font 
size.  Does that sound right?

Thanks,
Nancy

  Nancy,

  There are many reasons to change the font and its size even with usable 
vision. Usable and comfortable or easy are not the same. I can see normal 
texts size and print but not for long and not without getting a migraine. 
Whatever reason you have to change, the end result will be back in the 
original of the book. When you decide on all the settings you want, remember 
to  "save settings" and when you get back to work on the book don't forget 
to "load settings" or you will be back at the book without the changes you 
made in the settings. It does not matter what you label the settings you use 
as long as you remember what it is. I sometimes use the same settings for 
more than one book to save bothering to reset them each time. The program 
does not care as long as you use the same settings every time you work on or 
read that book.

  Under Display, you have a sub-menu for single font and you can check that 
and have one font with the size  ; bein g the original of both. If for some 
reason you wish to change these you can do it there. Even if you change it, 
when you submit the book it will be back in  the original but you can work 
in a font and size  easier for you to read.  Otherwise, leave single font 
unchecked and use the magnification .

  Within the book itself, if the font is normal in the scan where it should 
be italicized or bold for just a section of a few words,highlight those 
words, go to edit, down to format, then click on font and you can click 
italics or bold. After those are changed, Click back so that nothing is 
highlighted and you should be back to normal text.

  I know there is a way to do this without sight using contol or alt and but 
I don't know how. You will need someone else for that. Sorry.

  Amy
