Hi, Well I doubt anyone would print the whole thing on single sided and definitely not on an InkJet Printer. But if you have a Laser Printer of any statue double-sided printing is as simple as selecting it. As for the non-green aspect, this has just got to be a better option since you

Hi Tom, 3.0; but I guess my use of the words lock down may be deceptive. I just meant I can't open anything that will allow me to see the guts of the Dictionary. I can use it OK, but not examine its roots. Can you? If so, where is everything located? Are there .rev things? Joe Wilkins

Well, Tom Sarah, It was worth it. I was unable to increase the font size to 24 as I would have liked, since the line height is apparently fixed and I was unable to find a selectable property for that, but 14 is a heck of a lot better than 9. (smile) Thanks, Joe Wilkins On Nov 16,

They've got the Dictionary locked down; we have no access to any part of it so that it may be more useful; like changing the font size, something that would be a VERY welcome addition to its features. Obviously, they don't want us to mess with it. Too bad! Joe Wilkins On Nov 15, 2008, at
