There is no Windows font size setting for dialog text. As far
as I know, there are only three ways to do it.


1) [See part 1 in alt.usenet.offline-reader.forte-agent]

2) [See part 2 in alt.usenet.offline-reader.forte-agent]


3) Modify Agent's dialog resources to use a larger font
for the pop-up spell check dialog box.

3.1 Open agtent.xrs in a ZIP program and extract the file
dialogs.xrc

3.2 Edit dialogs.xrc in a plain text editor and add the four
lines shown below at the right place.
