Font size too LARGE when printing tasks in Entourage. Help, I'm using up the forests!

[drshrinkwrap]

I am not visually impaired but my Entourage must think I am. Every
print job comes out in a large font size - 16 or 18 at least. When I
go into prefences in Entourage and click "FONTS" & then "printed
items" it does not change the size or the style of the front
regardless of what size or style I
enter. Also when clicking PRINT the print dialogue box does not seem
to offer a choice of font size or styles (I'm a recent convert from PC
Office, and you could make a font adjustment here) What am I missing?

If it's any help I have:
Mac Mini
OS Version: 10.4.3
Office version: 2004 for Mac 11.2.1
Monitor: Viewsonic VA720 17" screen, maximum resolution: 1280 x 1024

Hmm... Tasks printed in Table Style printed using the font and size set for
List Items in Preferences.

Tasks printed in Memo Style used came out the same as headers do in an email
message. I have been wanting to change that for ages, and thanks to your
question, just discovered that it *appears* to be the setting for HTML
Messages (proportional) that controls it. That setting should also control
the Tasks in Memo Style.

Alternatively, if your printer allows you to print 2 pages per sheet, that
might help save paper. It would force a scaling down of the font size, as
well.

I did all this experimentation printing to PDF, by the way.

The print dialog is not designed to let you change font size, and I doubt it
ever will be. What do you mean by "styles"? The Task printing dialog let
me switch between Table Style and Memo Style.

Office 2004 11.2.1, Panther 10.3.9 here.

Thank you! The setting for "HTML meesages (proportional)" DOES control
font size in Tasks. Who'd a thunk it? The forests will be spared.
