When I open any of my old BBEdit files (from 9) the type is too small on my screen on my Quicksilver with a LCD 20" screen. I have migrated things to a X BBEdit with no improvement in this particular respect.

Sure, I have altered the size of the fonts, but they all look a bit s**h** (an Australian expression), not nice to read and html and css files can get fiddly and this is important. My Mail text at Geneva 14 is brilliant on my screen and I want like this

My question, does anyone actually know how to get the same control over BBEdit?

I will put it another way. This text right here (on Mail) looks great. When I cut and paste into BBEdit, it looks not good. Readable, sure, but cheap! Not as "bold", as smooth, a bit jaggedy I think, though it is not gross (the overall effect is unsatisfactory).

I have looked at prefs but can't seem to see what gives, is it some font smoothing thing? Is the prgm not alive to the system X font settings? I have tried setting the font smoothing in the BBEdit prefs on and off: "off" makes things even worse!
