A week or so ago I started (on SLE) the thread:"Deskjet printer app has a bug? Signal 11". Many of you helped. Thru the 'above and beyond the call of duty' help from Joe Morris, a lot of it off list, he got me going fine.
I am using this list instead because BandiPat recommended it.
BUT, I wanted to increase *margins* for email and did so from Kmail Menu toobar: Message/Print/Properties?Margins/
I fixed the margins but now my font size is so small I can hardly read it.
I am running SuSE Pro 9.2 using KDE version 3.3.2 Level 'a' with kernel 2.6.8-24.11 default. My machine is listed as i686.
ANOTHER QUESTION: should I try to update to version 3.4 at this time or wait until a later date? I am mostly interested in getting Version 2 of Open Office Org (wordprocessor part) but will gladly take anything that comes in addition.
Thank you for any help you may be able to give. I would need more detailed instruction since this is my first month on Linux.

Hi Andy, Font sizes can be adjusted either in the KMail settings or Control Center. By default, KMail uses the system fonts, what you have set in the control center, but you can tell kmail to use it's own settings. For margins, do you mean the mail you are reading or composing? Usually email composing is set to 72, which I believe to be the standard setting. I've never bothered to look before, but there may be a setting to disregard incoming mail margins and just fill your reader window, not sure. OpenOffice 2.0 can be downloaded now, as it's not part of the KDE 3.4 files. It will be part of the upcoming 9.3 release though, due out next month. You should be able to install OO.org 2.0 alongside of your present version without harm, if you want to catch a glimpse of it now. KDE 3.4 will also be part of the new 9.3 release. If you have kept up with the threads here and on the main list, you know there are a few buglets involved with 3.4, so you decide if you want to deal with those now. cheers, Lee -- --- KMail v1.8 --- SuSE Linux Pro v9.2 --- Registered Linux User #225206 Doctors office, Rome: specialist in women and other diseases.
