Bill,

Thanks for the suggestion on the Universal Access global Zoom feature. You're right, these are under-appreciated features.

I tried it out, but it doesn't really do what I want. The issue is to have the text in a particular software program document zoomed ALL the time (not all the "stuff" on the screen for parts of the time). Also the text when zoomed using Universal Access is not very crisp.

InDesign does zoom, Nisus Writer Pro does zoom, heck OmniGraffle does zoom, etc. etc. So many apps do zoom. Then, of those that don't, some offer a "screen size" versus "print size" of text. That's also just fine.

If I understood Ken correctly (from a previous post), the only problem they have with implementing zoom is how some "non-text" things like QuickTime movies show up. I'd gladly live with the compromise of pretty crappy looking enlarged QT movies (which I embed every other year at the most), but having the text-ability to zoom (which I use every day).
