Greetings, You can adjust the font sizes of netscape by finding the resource name of the item you want to change, and then putting the change into your ~/.Xresources file. The resourse names can be found in the file 'Netscape.ad'. It should be in the netscape directory if it's installed. For instance, on my system its '/usr/local/netscape/Netscape.ad'. My entries to adjust the menus, bookmarks, etc. are as follows. You'll probably have to adjust the size. --------------------------- Netscape*fontlist: -*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-*-110-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* Netscape*XmTextField.fontlist: -*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-*-110-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* Netscape*XmText.fontlist: -*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-*-110-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* Netscape*XmList*fontlist: -*-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-*-110-*-*-*-*-iso8859-* ----------------------------- Good Luck John -- Powered by the Penguin
