Irvan:
Perhaps you should consider an alternative to OE that would enable your wife
to read email and even surf online. There are several browsers that allow you
to adjust font sizes very easily. In some cases, it is as simple as pressing
CTRL or SHIFT (depends upon the browser), and rotating the mouse wheel;
others require that you click on a tool and select an appropriate
magnification. Take a look at Netscape, Mozilla or Opera. (In my case, I'm
able to shrink the display size to a thin gray line or enlarge it to
something that belongs on a highway sign.)
If online isn't the answer and you prefer hardcopy, is there some way to have
OE "print" the mail to a .txt file? If so, then you could access the file
from WordPad, change the font size and print it out.
(I'm sorry that I can't be more positive, but I no longer use Windows, so I
have no way of verifying any of the above. Oh well, perhaps it will create
some further discussion.)
