How to change menu font size in OpenOffice

#1 Post by mjg »

I upgraded to Puppy 1.07 today. It's great, thanks.

One problem is that my menu font size in OpenOffice 2 has shrunk to an unreadable small size. I've searched Google for this and found no suggestions yet to fix it.

Any suggestions?

Edit: Sorry, please move to appropriate forum.

move your head closer to the screen

:oops:
sorry that is not what you meant :wink:
I have the same problem with Firefox

Try this:
Start / Control Pannel / Set global font size
select 96 dpi (that is the one that works for me - try others)

then
Start / Shutdown / X restart

Any joy?

Thanks Lobster, good suggestions :)

Moving my head closer to the screen didn't work. :cry:

Changing the global font size helped, although the title bar font size is a little larger than I'd like it to be. Otherwise fine. It helped me in Firefox as well, but that wasn't as desperate a problem as OpenOffice, which I couldn't read at all.

You could also try this for OpenOffice
GoTo the Tools Menu, Select Options
Then From OpenOffice.org, Select View
Adjust Scaling (130% worked for me)
Which of the favours of your Lord can you deny?
