Default Do you have to make seperate layouts for Mac and PC?

Do you have to make seperate layouts for Mac and PC?

Is there a solution, other than seperate layouts?

The Excel files that I've been making on a laptop PC (1024 x 768),
display with fonts that are much too small to read clearly on a Mac
computer with the same screen resolution (1024 x 768).

Any practical workarounds for this situation?

Dennis -

In some situations you can use extra spacing that will display acceptably on
both Mac and Windows.

In others, you may want to use separate layouts. An example is the
UserForm_Initialize VBA code in my free Better Histogram add-in available
from http://www.treeplan.com.

You may get other opinions if you post in the following newsgroup:

Mike,

Thank you for your recommendation to visit the .mac.office.excel group.

There were discussions and suggestions for the PC to Mac display
compatibility issues.

There appears to be no easy fix. For the most part it looks like you
have to create a different versions for the Mac and PC for each have a
proper display and layout.

Thanks again for the recommendation.
