Thanks for that. I will try it later to see if it helps with my
problem. I have been struggling with getting the fonts sized
correctly. I started by first correcltly setting the top left corner
of the screen, then I did the width and finally the height. Now even
though it is perfectly size, I still cannot see the buttons on the
various screens (NEXT, PREV) and the bottom of letters are cut off.
When I mess with font sizes it seems to screw up the highlighter bars
so they no longer line up over that which they were intending to
highlight.
