Speaking of which what sort of code is this: .Footer-P
{
margin:0.0pt 0.0pt 0.0pt 0.0pt; text-align:center;
}
.Web-A-Heading-1-P
{
margin:0.0pt 0.0pt 0.0pt 0.0pt; text-align:left;

.PPStyle7-P


Style definitions, commonly known as CSS -- http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/


The original problem is that there are absolute positions defined which
assume the use of 10point text size, which is unreadably small on medium
to high definition screens (1260x1024 up), and so does not allow the
viewer to select a text font size that is comfortable for them.

The rationale for Style Sheets is to separate the content from the display
parameters and so to avoid such, err, deficiencies.
