font size all wrong?
Dear Sir/Madam.
My Open office was working perfect until 2 weeks ago, every time I open a
new document it show's font size as 12 but it's a lot smaller than 12. I
have Microsoft word installed and that works fine as in size 12 font.
I have un installed Open office and re installed it back on again on my pc
but with no joy as same thing is happening.
Please could you advice me with this matter.
Many thanks
Colette Jones

Does the text print the wrong size, or are you talking about its
appearance on screen? Remember that the screen appearance (unlike the
actual print size) is influenced by the zoom factor in the view settings.
Go to View | Zoom... and experiment with the settings there to see
what suits you. Perhaps start with Optimal and Automatic.
These settings are retained between documents and uses of OpenOffice
and even across reinstallation or updating, so this fits in with your
suggested symptoms.
I trust this helps.

Right click in the % box at bottom right of OpenOffice Window and select Optimal or Page Width (or some other setting that best suits you).
