Thank you sooooo much, that made a huge difference.  My display size was 
set to 320    240, which yielded "resolution:    63x63 dots per inch". 
 I changed it to 180    120, which now yields "resolution:    112x126 
dots per inch" and makes a huge difference in the display size of the 
fonts.  I wasn't aware of what the option did, so I have always left it 
alone.  Thank you again for the help.
