 If no one has yet answered your question, you can scale those fonts by
 changing the default setting in:

Yours is the only response I've seen.


 Tools menu- Options...- OpenOffice.org- View- Scale

 Change it to 120% or 150% and see if that looks better--

150% looks great. Also upped the icon size.

Many thanks,

Malcolm

For larger icons in OpenOffice.org:

openoffice menus

2004-04-23 Thread Malcolm Kay
I recently installed openoffice1.1 under FBSD 4.9-release.
The capability is quite impressive and it genereally seems 
to behave very well.

But I do have a problem: I am using a high resolution 
1600x1200 display and the fonts used by the base UI are 
are crisp and clear but rather too small for my aging eyes.
I'm refering here to the fonts used in the Menu bars, Drop
downs and Option dialogs. The toolbar icons are also a bit 
small. (The fonts in the working areas can of course be 
readily changed through the toolbars.)

I've spent some time searching but can't discover how 
(or whether) this base font size can be changed.

Could someone please enlighten me?

Malcolm
