Secondary question: Any way to force minimum Font Size for any operator input independent of application? If you have a high-res monitor with a high pixel density, you need to tell your desktop manager about it. I don't have THAT particular problem ;/ I'm using a Lenovo R61 laptop. The Debian Installer chose appropriate pixel density. My problem is being of tri-focal wearing generation. It will be hidden in preferences, probably. For MATE: System:Preference:Appearance, Fonts Tab, look under Rendering, click Details. At the top will be Resolution, in dots-per-inch. My 27-inch, 1440p monitor needs it set to 107 ppi. Though not addressing my problem, that served as a very useful diagnostic tool. I found that increasing DPI by ~50% made LibreOffice's help text comfortably viewable. All this caused me to change my search criteria to discover https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Faq/General/020 which says: The visual appearance of the online help is managed by a configuration file, depending on version: LibO_installation/Basis/help/en/defaut.css. or LibO_installation/help/en/defaut.css. You can change the font family, size, color and lines in this file. Save the modified file and restart LibO (included the Quickstarter). For my installation of Debian 8.0 the file is: /usr/share/libreoffice/help/en-US/default.css Now that Help is legible, that leaves me only to discover how to force default font size for *content* of all spreadsheet cells to a suitable value. If you use Gnome 2 or 3, there is a similar setting. Other Window managers and desktops probably have a similar setting. This will not solve all such problems, but most apps will look better at the correct ppi density. Mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
