My technique is to hunch over close to the screen and read the tiney letters :-) If it's more than a few sentences my backup plan is to delete it. In the past I'd switch to 640x480 res for such cases but I seldom bother anymore (getting lazier the closer to 40 I get). Another technique that's worked is to highlight tiny text with the mouse and paste it into a text editor with a visible font. Steve
