Default wordpad no easir to read on larger monitor


I have a 19 inch monitor set to 1024x768res on winxp. I did this to
increase my ability to read on the computer screen. HTML auto sizes
page and text to fit the screen and is easy to see without changing
fonts, margins etc. Wordpad only autosizes the frame to fit, nothing
else gets any larger. So documents leave a lot of space to the right of
ruler which in turn makes the documents no easier to read than when on a
smaller monitor. Even if I increase the font size it just puts big
letters in the same small space. Unfortunately 3.5 additional inches go
beyond the ruler, to the right, in which nothing is displayed but more
blank tool bar. The Wrap to screen option allows you to use the whole
screen but the letters are still as small as on the wrap to ruler
otion.

Imagine buying a book with large print to read and you have to put the
book across the room from you.

I would prefer the margin setting on the ruler go all the way across
the screen, thus enlarging documents, proportionate to size of the
screen, so that I can read them easier and the printer scale it for
view on the document. The ruler can say 7 inches but go all the way
across the screen. Is there a command, code change, regedit fix for
this other than turning on the disability access?

contact me through peteransley.com, these threads are pretty hard to
read too.
