Anyway, I'd be careful with that and do it only if it absolutely necessary. If your Mac really uses a bad dpi setting then this is probably because of the monitor sending incorrect edid data; this could certainly be fixed system-wide somehow though I don't know much about OSX). > > I also tried using negative size value ("Times -8 bold") as suggested. Well, 8 pixels is really tiny if you are using a modern screen resolution, so maybe a bigger size might help ;) Regards Michael .-.. .. ...- . .-.. --- -. --. .- -. -.. .--. .-. --- ... .--. . .-.
