In MSWord I have noticed no fonts smaller than 8points, but I am sure soem go smaller. The question is which ones?

So which Font is easiest to read in a small size?
Arial Narrow is the smallest yet still easy to read thta I acan find so far.

You can even do fractions of a whole.
10.25 points, anyone? :)

It does nothing when I change below 8 point.

As others have said, you can manually type in whatever you want.

Before my eyes went bad I could read Times New Roman at 5-6 without too much difficulty. Of course you need a decent printer (preferably laser) to do it.

I must have some setting on my WORD program that prevents it from going below 8. When I type in 6, it will reset to 8 or what ever the last valid number was. Weird.

Type in the number, then hit enter.

Word will let you go all the way to 1 pt type.
