Hi, Robert. Lately I haven't printed anything from wordpad or microsoft word. Actually I did print out a baby blanket pattern I copied from a knitting book I read. The font was arial and a point size of 13. I checked another file I have in word and it was light but even if I were to change the font, I don't think that would make a difference. I even had my sighted mother here to look at what I printed and she saw that what I printed didn't come out to where it could be read properly. If I understand correctly, arial is supposed to be very easy for a sighted person to read.
