Hello Gaylord,

Since 3 of you put this in such fashion you proale was adressiong this to us.I bought a new Gateway with 512 MB DDR SDRAM. As we started seting thinks up we selected plain text.But since i could read the lettering where you can select this on the formating bar to Rich text.We took our computer in because we only could get one size of lettering.It took the store some time wy he could not fix the problem.To he saw that we had this in plain text set.So after he fixed it in Rich text,we can change the letters bigger.There is no way i can read ore other birders can read such smal lettering.So you tell me how to fixthat problem.Iput this to all so other people can give me some input on this.
