Hi Rachael,

Yes, that's me. NMUG - Norwich Mac User Group. www.nmug.org.uk A very informal usergroup - no membership fees, just a mailing list and a monthly meeting.

Now back to font sizes. I've just done an experiment with scaling up a font - using a font editor to make it twice its nominal size. This seems to work. Using that font, I can get text on the CyBook with a cap height of 12mm.

Mind you, at that size you only get about four words per page!

Paul

Now it has got to be the weirdest coincidence in the universe if you are not the esteemed Mr Paul Durrant of the NMUG ?
