Default Re: type too small

I have MS Works which includes Money. I was also hoping to get a solution
to this problem. The type is so small that this new program is useless.
Hopefully I can fix my old computer enough so I can use it just for my
register.

Having the graphics hardware independence of HTML as objective would
be nice. In IE, there are non-HTML methods that also result in fixed
pixel-count fonts too.

Thanks, Cal. I think you've answered some of my q's before.

I already have it set at 166 dpi (173%), which does drive hubby crzy
sometimes, but it doesn't affect MS Money. I did try once to up it much
more, but it did no good and of course everything else was WAY
funky/crowded/huge.

Wonder why Money fonts are always small, when some other applications let
you set larger font size, even IE to some degree ... ?

On a blank spot on the desktop, right click and choose
Properties-> Settings-> Advanced change the DPI setting to a higher
number. This will have some downside too. You will have to
experiment, and change back if you find the downside to outweigh
the upside.

Default type too small

I have a Dell Inspiron laptop running XP, and my
Display/Appearance/IE/Whatever settings are all on Large Fonts. But MS Money
2004 remains stubbornly small. Is there a way to adjust its fonts, short of
using the Magnifier?

Thanks.
