I am experienceing huge font size when viewing emails that are received. When
I print a hard copy the font size is still huge.  I type in normal font size
and the display looks normal but any saved "sent " emails show up large font.
I have check online and in Word/Outlook for an answer and so far nothing has
curred this problem.

I am using XP currently.

Tools, Options, Mail Format, Fonts button for Outlook. If you use Word,
change the options in Word.

Mary,

Thank you for responding.  I went to word,format,font and everything looks
great.  Also, word,tools, options and checked withall the tabs there and
there does not seem to be a correction for fonts there.

When I pull up Outlook and check tools, options, mail format, font button it
seems to be listed at 10 for size.  Am i missing something here?

Hi Anastasia,
I have run into the same issue today. Were you able to find a solution
in the meantime?
Regards
Simon

I have disconnected for now Word as Outlook's email editor.

All users in our office are experiencing the same problem. Very
disconcerting, and looks unprofessional with our clients. This just started
since the latest Outlook update.  No help switching to using Word as editor.

Has anyone found a fix?

In Outlook, go to:

Options

Mail Format

Fonts

Under Stationary Fonts, click "Use my fonts when replying to and forwarding
email"

This seems to be working for me.  It was driving me INSANE.  Hope it works
for everyone else!

And don't use MS Word as your email editor.  Although I am in my computer and
it's working fine, I just tried this with someone else's computer and the
font was still large and in charge until I unchecked the MS Word editor
option.

We already tried that.  And we tried, "Always use my fonts."  We are not
using Word as the email editor.

I wish someone from Microsoft would see what they can do about this.  It is
making us look ridiculous to our clients - as if we are YELLING at them.
