Font size in an attachment?

17 years ago

OK, people, have been trying and trying to print this attachment out large enuf that I can read the print. I am at a loss at what to do.

I have tried copying and pasting into Word, no dice, and also hiliteing.

Tried changing the font, also the print size in the OE system and still no luck.

I am running IE, OE, have a HP812C printer, and I seem to be getting nowhere.

I had hopes of teaching myself how to conquer this problem, but so far, I have lots of paper with unreadable writing.

Is there a solution?

What kind of file is the attachment? If you can't copy and paste the text it may be a jpg or other graphic file. If so, maybe you can right click on it, 'select save image as' and save it to a folder you remember with a name you remember. Then you can start word, insert the graphic and stretch it out.

If you can get the attachment open and use copy and paste than open Microsoft Works Word Processor and Paste it their.
After you have used paste. Hold down on the CTRL Key and Roll the wheel on your mouse and the print will get large.
Even though you can enlarge the print to read the printer will still print small on your paper.
I use ScreenHunter 4.0 to capture text or picture. It will all still be graphic.

It's Free.
Note pad wouldn't work when I tested it.

Are you referring to Notepad (click Start/All programs/Accessories/Notepad)? If so and a fix is not offered here you could visit How-to Geek and select a free text editor from those listed there.

Bob, When on the web surfing I like to sit back from the monitor with my feet up on the corner of the computer desk and the keyboard in my lap. I have my FF display set at Franklin Gothic Medium 20. It works much better than the default. DA

Just another comment on computer use and glasses. If you wear bifocals or progressives, it's important to buy computer glasses. If you don't, and use your regular progressives to work at the computer, you will be holding your neck at an unnatural angle, and there is research that shows that can cause permanent damage to the neck over time. For the progressive wearer, computer glasses would be designed so that the bottom of the glasses are for close work, and the upper part is formulated for computer screen distance. The brand Compuvue makes lenses that are just amazing--NO side distortion (like you get with regular progressives). Luckily, my dd is an optician and keeps me both informed and supplied with the best eyecare solutions. It's really important, though, that if you do a lot of computer work, that you discuss your corrections with your opthalmologist or qualified optician (not all opticians are licensed, in all states) and get the proper correction for your needs. One pair of glasses may not be enough to handle all your activities properly. And considering the cost of medical treatment, to me it IS a money-saving tip to have the best eye correction possible.

Hello Mikie, I am so sorry for not replying, For some reason I thought I'd be notified by email if there were any replies and when I didn't receive a notice, I just forgot, Well, you were 100% correct. That was/is exactly what is happening. I clicked the spyglass and sure enough it said "200" so everytime it happens, and yes it still does, I just click "100" and it's back to normal. Thanks so much for your reply,. Barbb

When I capture with ScreenHunter Text can be edited but not a picture in Microsoft Works Word Processor. At least in my short try out.
