Nope. On my E-Machines monitor, 12 point anything looks like 10 point. Of course the resolution on this screen is higher than some others so the characters get smaller. So far we've been able to use 12 point Times on 8 1/2 by 11 pages, but now everything has to go to smaller format pages and 10 point Times. We have the same problem - a boss who refuses to consider anything but Times as acceptable. Otherwise, I'd use Palatino which is quite readable on screen and has a more modern look on paper. One thing I'm interested in is the new E-Machines monitor that lets you change the resolution. That should provide the ability to work in the correct font but blow it up to a readable size.
