Hello All. I hope today is finding you well.
I just purchased a new Acer 19" flat screen monitor (AL1912) to replace my old 19" CRT. Man, what a difference it makes on the desktop!!!
When pictures and graphics are displayed, they look fantastic. However, fonts suck. For instance, with the capital letter "H", sometimes the right vertical leg is fatter than the left vertical leg, and sometimes it's vice versa. (I'm using Arial).
It looks like an anti-aliasing issue. The monitor is actually a bit further away from me than before, so it's not that I'm closer to the screen.
I'm running 1024 x 768. The monitor doc suggests running at 1280 x 1024, but with Win98 and my hardware (e-machine, circa '98), I can't set it to 1280 x 1024. I briefly tested setting to 1152 x 864, and I could, but aside from being overall smaller character sizes, there really was no improvement.
Any ideas?
Thanks! Todd
