Sorry, Judith, but I don't know anything about desk-top publishing My first problem is that I cannot change the default setting from the existing 14pt Times New Roman. Yes, I know how it should be done, but it doesn't work The second problem is that I cannot change the font for an individual message. Again, I know how it should be done, but it doesn't work I don't understand what you mean about "going to the next line". I simply type and let it run on, unless I want to shorten the line, when I start a new one by pressing enter You talk about pressing enter "after the paragraph ... just formatted". If only. As to font type and font size, I cannot format at all Thanks for your interest, Judith. I have been following your posts with interest, for ages David ----- Original Message ----- From: "Judith/agoodread.com" <jtb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2007 10:23 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Wobbly Fonts - Outlook Express Problem I'm wondering if this happens in OE as it does in desk-top publishing. The paragraph marker holds the formatting for the paragraph. If you down arrow, you will get the default settings. But if you press enter after the paragraph, you just formatted, it will be the same as the first. So how exactly are you going to the next line when you're using Rich Text?
