Changing font size in Windows Editor
Hi all, When I was composing the message I just sent to TBUDL I came across another situation which I couldn't seem to resolve. Basically I am using the Windows Plain text editor to create messages, my regular text font is set of Verdana size 10. Now I wanted to copy the contents of my subject into the text of the message, which I did by copying and pasting. However it came in in a smaller size font, which is fine, however I can't seem to find any way to alter the text size of this pasted text. In the end I just retyped it! Is there something obvious I am missing here? -- Warmest regards, Paul Created using TheBat! 3.70.06 "Qigong" (Beta) on Windows XP Current version is 3.65.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Is there something obvious I am missing here? My best guess would be that the editor remembers the font, but as the message format doesn't allow for different fonts, it would not have been sent that way. Try it again I'd say, but then save as draft and open the message again. See have the fonts appear then. I could try it myself of course, but I don't use the Windows editor. -- Groetjes, Roelof It takes about ten years to get used to how old you are.

This works as you suggested, the font reverts to the default set in the preferences when you save it and reopen it. Bit of a pain though - albeit a minor one! -- Warmest regards, Paul Created using TheBat! 3.70.06 "Qigong" (Beta) on Windows XP Current version is 3.65.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
