Increasing the font size under Edit/Preferences... doesn't help much - going from 12 -> 14 point (variable) or 10 -> 12 point (fixed) is a small improvement. Trying for higher point sizes leads to thick and ugly fonts. Everything looks great under Windows/Netscape or Windows/IE. So... what's up and what can be done about it? Any suggestions? Thanks, Mark P.S. Size really does matter :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
