I write from Outlook through Word and it seems stuck
on 14 point. I change it to 12 when I think of it, but may have
forgotten in this case. Of course I prefer larger type for it's easier for me
to see as I compose. I just had a look and I had already changed it to 12
– so I changed it to 10. Harry ********************************* 818 352-4141 ********************************* >-----Original Message----- >From: Brad McCormick, Ed.D.
