What fonts are you talking about -- the ones used to provide labels on the radio buttons and scroll panes or the text in the body of the window? The size of the fonts used in the labels and scroll panes is hard-coded under Macintosh and Windows. Under X Window, it is possible to specify the font sizes using X resources. For the text used in the body of the online help, the size of the fonts is set within the style sheet HelpBrowser.nb Style sheets contain prototype cells with options that will be inherited by cells that use the given style. Since there are a large number of styles used in by the Help Browser, you may want to refrain from this changing the size of the fonts explicitly. An alternative is to add a Magnification option to the Notebook prototype in HelpBrowser.nb that sets the option value to something greater than 1 (100 percent). This option will then be applied to all cells in the online help. -- P.J.
