Default Lines look skinney, but print big and fat.

hoping for a way to set it globally. I have hundreds of those fat lines.


Well, that would certainly have been good to mention. :-)

You can certainly loop through a document with, i.e., VBA and change the
width of such lines in one go. If you need help for that, one of the
..vba groups might be a good place to look for and maybe ask.


I am also very curious as to why the lines don't look fat on either the
screen display or the print preview. Do you have any feedback on that?


Screen resolution and printer resolution differ greatly. On screen, you
have something between 70-90 dpi, on a printer, you may have a lot more.
Also, on paper you see (most usually) 100%, while on screen you may
reasonably zoom a document between 50-200+%.
