The “Small Font” and “Large Font” notations refer to the basic display font that Windows uses
in the Program Manager, Windows utilities and application programs. The “Small Font” is the
‘standard’ size for a given resolution. Generally speaking, to get closest to a WYSIWYG (What
You See Is What You Get) display, 14- and 15 –inch monitors should use the 640 x 480
resolution, while 16- or 17-inch monitors should use 800 x 600. The 1024 x 768 resolution are
for 19- or 20-inch monitors.

you get more displayed in the same screen dimensions. In this case, you might want to use the
“Large Fonts” option so that menus etc. are easier to see on the smaller –looking image that
results from this arrangement.
