That sounds like a different problem than what Paul was talking about. I think Paul was talking about text appearing a couple of points difference - not .4 of an inch difference. I just sent a message to myself and retrieved it with VPC 4.x/Windows 98 and didn't see any significant difference in text size. Probably not a representative test. I frequently exchange AIM messages with a friend who has a PC with AOL. I will query him and see if he thinks my text is large. I have never set a font size in AIM. Can you do that?
