How to change font size?

5 replies · 30,469 views · Started 02 August 2006

Is there a way to change the font size on the E61? when I read emails I only see a few lines at a time, I want smaller font so I can read more of the emails without having to scroll so much. Is this possible? Thanks.

yes, this is a real problem. i must say its quite embarrasing to put my E61 next to the 3 year-old Blackberry and see how much better it's display quality is for reading emails. the blackberry display is obviously quite inferior, but the screen background and fonts on the E61 make reading email pure pain.

I don't believe this is possible. The only adjustment us using one or two lines to display messages in the Inbox (one line works best). (You can change this in Settings)

Personally the 10 lines I get in individual emails is about right for me.

There are so many aspects of S60v3 phones where Nokia have placed stupid arbitary limits:

- autochecking of email is limited to 2 (or 3?) accounts
- auto disconnect time in realplayer is limited to 30 minutes
- cannot specify custom port number of more than 3 digits in email
- the voice recorder is limited to a maximum of 1 minute recording length
- etc etc.
