email Print size very small

I'm in Opera 11.60/1173 on Vista, and I just tried printing out an email. The result was tiny font.

The email was html, and my setting is Verdana, 13, with a minimum font size set at 10. The page looks like maybe a size 6.

I don't see any way to change printing font size.

Thanks.

By default, print options scale to 80%. Check your print options

Verdana 13 is not the same as Verdana 13 point. Font sizes in Opera are in pixels, so 16 pix = 12 points, and 12 pix = 9 points. So what you're seeing is 9.5 point text scaled down by maybe 80% at print time.

96 pix = 1"
72 pt = 1"

Ok, cool. I didn't know there were print options. I trust that will solve it.

Thanks much!!
