Canon's tiny type

Canon's tiny type

Tim,

I agree. It was smaller than 5 points, which I can read.
Now, with the new Netscape 7 I can set it to 16-18 points, which is
just what I want. The older netscape didn't have that option.

Jerry,

Just FYI, the font that the HTML of that page specifies is "Verdana",
regular, 6.5 points.

Jerry,

the html for the page sets the font size for that text at 6.5  - your 
browser/computer must be changing it...

Lets drop the thread, In Netscape 7 all is well.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
