That's what I use to enlarge everything. I'm working  with a spot 
magnifier but haven't quite got the swing of it yet. I've worked out a 
word screen (font, typeface, view) that allows me to get a minimally 
decent amount of  text on the screen, and a set of steps to get the text 
from a web site or post to Word, and that is where I usually do bot h my 
reading and my writing. I'm answering this post directly, and after a 
few lines I'm having difficulty controlling this screen and am not 
watching now what I'm typing. To go on would require shifting to a Word 
file.
