Had the same problem, thought it was because i am waiting for my new glasses. Went into View, then into text size, and for some reason it was different than i had it before. Changed to larger and its fine. Ann

Maybe we should investigate whether the Top Brass of GR are also in the Spectacles industry?????? I should think they must be major shareholders by now! Merry
