The larger one sits a distance and I would like the fonts to be larger as a default. I do not want to have to adjust each view. I am okay if the fonts are large on both screens. I am speaking by the way about the text of messages I have received, and those I am drafting to send out. Is this possible?

Issue: When I set the font for my outgoing new emails under Tools/Options/Mail Format/Stationery and Fonts/Personal Stationery/ and then try and send an email; the font is something other than what was set. I have experienced the same issue and I believe I have a fix for this particular problem. I believe this problem originates with anyone using HTML as their format for generating emails, and if they are using any Stationery Theme other than (No Theme). What happens is that Outlook pulls from a pre-generated html file that contains the theme information. This file has a pre-set font that for some reason does not get bypassed. Example: I am using the Technical Stationery Theme. Outlook uses a file located on my C: drive as its starting place to set up the email. For me the file is located here C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Stationery\Technical.htm When you open this file in Word you will notice that the file's font is probably the font that you are defaulting to instead of the one you want. The simple fix is to 1)Find the *.htm file that corresponds to your Stationery Theme 2) Open it so you can edit it 3) change the font in the htm file and then 4) save it with the new font. If you do this process above I believe you will have a good chance of fixing or atleast getting what you want. To find the *.htm file I simply did a search on my C: drive for Technical.* and then I opened/edited the file in Word. Good Luck :) I have read several comments on different help sites where people have run into the following issue with Outlook.

It will stick for days, but invariably gets reset to default? I have no clue what event causes it to reset, it isn't a reboot because that won't always cause the loss.
