Hi, sorry to not clarify.. Yes, when I input the text in Lyx it is fine
and I can read it. But when I output the PDF, it is much much smaller
and its hard to see. I looked at the link provided, but am not clear on
what to do. I need to use the \DeclareMathSizes {x}
in my preamble? And that will make the output math text size x? This is
a rather long document(thesis) so zooming in and changing that would
alter figures which are set to a specific size etc so I would rather not
go that route if possible...
Thanks!
Charles
