I had posted a while ago about problems with the HP Deskjet 5050
scaleable font driver and WP 4 Windows.  WP has sent me the new
HP Deskjet driver which has resolved the printing problem
but alas I am still stuck with the following.

WPWin refuses to display screen fonts accurately!!!!!!! 
I have a paradise SVGA monintor, normally at the 640 x 480 256 color
mode.  ALl my letters look so tiny!!!!!!!  The only way to get
them to look kind of normal is to switch to regular VGA setting.

Still, it appears that WPWin is using its own screen fonts or 
doint something differently than all my other Windows apps.

I can open up Windows write, or any other app, type the same 
thing, and the WPWin text looks different.

WP still has not solved this problem.  Does anyone know what to do?
Has anyone had this problem???????


As an aside, I am using a 386sx 16mhz with 2 megs of ram.  I 
am planning to get 2 more megs or RAM cause wp runs really
slowly!!!!!!
