Small fonts

[j Mak]

                                        I did enter the actual DisplaySize of the screen in the monitor section but it has no impact on the font size rendition. I still get very inconsistent font sizes when I visit the various sites. Some looks ok but others are hardly readable.

In section Monitor:

DisplaySize xxx yyy

Where xxx is the horizontal width of your screen in millimeters and yyy the vertical.

I felt the font was way too small as well. 

Going to 'Applications->Settings->Settings Manager', and clicking on 
'User Interface' brought up a panel where changing the font from Sans 9 
to Sans 11 helped tremendously.
