Hi, I have an email, I'd like to print out. It has too tiny a print. I've forgotten how to enlarge the print in an individual email. How do I do it? (I sure wish I could keep such little dittys in my head. I guess I don't do it often enough to remember it!!) Thanks much! NancyT

IF I remember correctly, you are using Thunderbird. File Page setup There is a place there to change the scale. See if that is what you need. Or, there is shrink to fit page which might make it smaller. If you want only the one email enlarged, try the File Print Print Preview and there is the Scale box again. Do not know if that is only for one email, or if it keeps the scale you set for all. Good luck. Joy On 12/22/2011 2:36 PM, Nancy Tollefson wrote: > Hi, I have an email, I'd like to print out.

Yes, Joy, I am using t'bird. Most of what I get is very readable, and prints out large enough for my 73 year-old eyes to read. Will try this...

In thunderbird, there is a setting for the minimum size of text in emails. Do the following... 1. From the top menu select *Tools* > *Options* 2. Select '*Advanced*' (at the right of 'Default font') 3. Choose a '*Minimum font size*' for the character set you are using. You can choose a different minimum font size for each character set. This will set the text in emails to be no smaller than what you can read. Note: depending on the thunderbird version you are using, the 'Tool > Options' may be 'Edit > Preferences' On 22/12/11 22:36, Nancy Tollefson wrote: > Hi, I have an email, I'd like to print out.
