hi, carla.
wdc tells me that this is an artifact of the system--there is a shortage
of correctly scaled fonts, so ez doesn't quite do what is expected.
actually, I think he's recommending you upgrade your display, but maybe
I misunderstood...
thanks for reporting this, but at first review by wdc, it sounds like
known behavior.
