   Thanks. And following on what I alluded to in my previous post,   
   I've discovered that if one's screen resolution is high enough, WPS   
   settings notebooks will automatically use the 10-point version of   
   WarpSans if it's installed. (Not sure if it'll go up to the 11-point   
   on really high resolutions, as I have no real way of testing that.)   
      
   Unfortunately, this only applies to original WPS settings pages...   
   those added by XWorkplace always use 9.WarpSans regardless. I've   
   occasionally thought about asking for Paul's thoughts on that, but   
   I've never gotten around to it.
