    I may be totally missing something here, but I have searched everywhere, and I cannot, for the life of me, find anything in the Adobe Help file preferences or in my apple os 10.4.4 preferences that allows me to change the font size. I do need enlarge the font, however, as I cannot read the files as they stand now. I have been using the zoom feature in the os preferences to read them up until this point, but it is proving to not be good enough to read everything. I know this question really doesn’t apply to this forum directly, but There does not seem to be a general Adobe forum on the cow to ask this one. I did some advance searches on this subject and found nothing. Am I the only one that is having this problem? Is the solution right under my nose? Any help would be a relief.

    Sounds like a monitor resolution issue to me….

    Yes, By changing my monitor resolution I can better read it. But it is pretty much still like zooming. And I have to reconfigure my monitor whenever I want to read the help files?!? Pretty lame. It is weird that Adobe wouldn’t include a simple text editor in their product help. Oh well I guess I can live with it. Thanks for the input.

    If you want to change the size of the text in the help files, and you have a mouse with a scroll wheel, hold down ctrl (cmd) and scroll the mouse wheel. Works in IE on Windows, but haven’t tried it on Mac.

    That did it. It is amazing that it is that easy. You would think Adobe would make a zoom tool in this viewer, or have an explanation of this in the viewer help files.

    Thanks very much!
