Only Bold Fonts?
Tools | Options | Compose | Mail Format Settings. Check Regular rather than
Bold. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "Neil Gould" wrote in message ... After a recent re-install of OE6, read and compose font options all result in bold versions being used. For example, if I have selected Arial, Arial Bold is used. Any way to fix this? Thanks, Neil

Is Regular checked now in Tools | Options............? Does it stay
unchecked? If it is unchecked and you still see bold, then create a new identity. You may have a damaged identity especially if it is the default Main Identity. File | Identity | Add New Identity. Create a new one and test it. If all is well, you can import your messages and Address Book from the old identity and delete it.

Hi Bruce, That was the default selection, and the result doesn't change if de- and reselecting that option. Still only bold display. Went a step further and tried other format options, and they had no impact on either viewing or composing. But, that does give me some ideas...

to Bold? -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "Bruce Hagen" wrote in message ... Is Regular checked now in Tools | Options............? Does it stay unchecked?

If you are using stationery, some default to a specific font and size.
Tools | Options | Compose. Make sure nothing is checked or selected in the Stationery section, including Blank. In IE: Tools | Internet Options | Accessibility.

I don't know how to access the font values, or even if you can. That should
not be an issue though as a new identity would have given you a new registry entry with all the default settings. May I ask what your Windows version is?
