Outlook Express prints tiny fonts
 
Hello

I have tried correcting this by following the procedure outlined in
Microsofts article ID 276435, i.e. changing the fonts in both IE and OE to
smallest and then back to medium, but with no result no matter how I tried
it.
I suspect it has to do with having utilized the mouse -wheel plus CTRL to
change the font size when viewing pages in IE, (because the text there looks
normal in "smallest" but in "medium" the letters merge!)

Any ideas how to get unstuck please??

Many thanks in advance!
Dion.

The only setting needed to be changed is in IE.

Outlook Express uses the same print engine as Internet Explorer.

For print size: IEViewText SizeMake adjustment.

For margins: IEFilePage Setup. (Default setting is 0.75 all around).

Thanks, but nothing happens when I do that. I wish it were that simple. It
must have something to do with the print drivers of IE, OE (the MIcrosoft
Support article mentions drivers) and possibly the mouse wheel.
Would re-installing IE and OE fix this?

Many thanks, tried it, restarted but didnt' help either.
Obviously there is some clash somewhere, the question is where.

Is there a way to fix this through the registry perhaps?
