Works: Setting The Default Font in the Communications Module (123807)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Works 3.0
- Microsoft Works 3.0a
- Microsoft Works 3.0b
This article was previously published under Q123807 SUMMARY
The default font for the Works Communications module can be changed by
adding a line to the MSWORKS3.INI file. The change goes into the
[Communications] section of the MSWORKS3.INI file. The syntax is as follows
[Communications]
DefaultFont=<size>,<font name>,<font family>
where <size> is the font size, <font name> is the font's name, and <font
family> is the type of font.
For example:
[Communications]
DefaultFont=8,Courier New,Modern
The best choices for a Communications font are: Terminal, System,
Courier, or Courier New.
MORE INFORMATION
Very important: Do NOT use a proportionally spaced font like Arial or
Times New Roman for the font. Proportionally spaced fonts cause problems
with alignment in the Communications window while connected.
The font family should always be Modern because monospaced fonts should all
fall into this category.
