Hi Martin, apologies if this is in the software, but looked everywhere to no avail. 

I'm really struggling to read the small page numbers on my full size track plan.  By this I mean the w16, w17 etc that appears in the top right and bottom left of the printed sheets.  The font is so small and really hard to read and even though the pages come off in page order, when you have 100 sheets or so to stick together, it's quite a strain on the eyes.

Can anything be done to increase the font size and change the font itself?

Many thanks.

Gordon S

Hi Gordon,

I'm sorry, this font size is hard-coded, there isn't a setting to change it. I made the corner texts intentionally small because they are within the finished template area and might obscure important detail if too large.

Note that the page number is also printed in a larger font outside the trim margin in the bottom left corner. The best I can suggest is that you read that and write it on the template area before trimming off the margins.

No-one has mentioned this before, and when I coded it 10 years ago it looked fine. Looking at it again now with eyes 10 years older (my eyes are the same age as yours :) ), I can see that it might be a problem.

I will do something about this in the next upgrade. Thanks for drawing my attention to it.

regards,

Martin.
