I have an issue with the radio buttons.  I was designing forms last week to
take screen shots for Mariano's guide and you can't resize them.  They look
awfully small as it is, but considering they are in screenshots, they're
even smaller again!

 when using a checkbox (etc) in a form with large type in the text, the size

 I hope I'm just missing something...

If you are using Adobe LiveCycle Designer (cs3 for me) you can change 
the point size on the checkbox to any size you wish.

Um... this question was referring to creating forms in OOo Writer. 
We're documenting OOo, so it's pretty irrelevant what an Adobe product 
will do... especially one that doesn't run on Linux.

ok.  although usually i find there are cross-platform similarities in 
design.

Hmmm does Adobe LiveCycle Designer actually let you change the 
size of a form control checkbox? I can't recall if MS Word does it.


If I use a checkbox symbol that isn't part of a form control (that is, 
just a symbol from an ordinary font, not a form control), I can make 
it any size I want. But not a form control checkbox. --Jean
