OpenOffice 2.0 huge menu fonts


Is there any way to reduce OpenOffice 2.0 menu font sizes? I can change font look via font replace but there's no option for size modification.

I'm using gentoo linux, if that has any help.

Thanks!

Arrow Large OpenOffice menu fonts.

Well, there is a fix, though it is not what I'd like. The following is taken from Sun's help pages (http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/...t_all_of_OOo):

Under options, select
1. In the Options dialog, click OpenOffice.org > View.
2. On the OpenOffice.org - View page, set the options to suit your personal preferences. Some options are described below.
3. User Interface - Scaling
If the text in the help files and on the menus of the OOo user interface is too small or too large, it can be changed by specifying a scaling factor. Sometimes a change here can have unexpected results, depending on the screen fonts available on your system. It does not affect the actual font size of the text.


I have mine set to 80%. It isn't wonderful, but it works

If you are running KDE, install openoffice.org-kde.
