tiny fonts

Fonts in the help text for office apps are too small. For instance, in window
help for Outlook Express the right frame uses a very, very small text.
Resolution is OK, internet explorer is OK, display properties are OK, the
only problem are help text in office and some windows system.
I use windows XP, xp3

thanks

Please be more specific as to where you see this. In OE, the "right pane"
could be more than one option since you can configure OE in different ways.

Open the Help (.chm) file that has the small font size, such as Outlook Express
help.
Click the left mouse button once in the right pane of the help file.
Now hold the CTRL key on the keyboard while you scroll the wheel on your mouse.
This will make the font size larger or smaller (depending on which way you scroll
the wheel) in a .chm type HTML Help file.

For another method which I have not tried, see here>
Control Internet Explorer and Windows Help Font Size:
