No! No! No!

The viewer in the Sony Library software is very deceptive. The image on your computer screen is much larger than the screen size of the Sony.
For RTF format files on my Sony, a font size of 16 is about the best for me. Even then, I sometimes put it on "M" for medium. That gives me about 25 lines of text on the screen - looks large and clear - just the thing for bumpy tram rides and gloomy train stations.

Try looking at font size 16 in your word processing program on your computer. It looks way over-sized. But on the small Sony screen, it ain't.

(Also note that your Sony screen is not in colour and won't have the search facility that the Sony Library software has).
