Sorry I wasn't specific enough. Yes, pen strokes. The reason is that with a pressure sensitive stylus, handwritten text is nicer and more readable. but sometimes I would like to change the thickness of the text after I have written it without rescaling it. Maybe what we need is an option that defaults to set width. If not set, rescales width. I guess the problem is that strokes do not record the maximum width text was written with them. The only feasible way is to scan the text, find the maximum width, and rescale accordingly: newWidth = oldWidth * currentWidth/ maxWidth. That would work for me. --dmg -- --dmg --- Daniel M.
