This is _not_ what you said before.  You said that when you change the
font size, XEmacs forgets from session to session.

Now you're saying the font size doesn't change at all.  This would
happen if the "document font" is not an ISO-8859 font.  I can tell you
how to change the font size for Asian fonts, etc, but it can't be done
through the menus yet.

No, people don't bother me.  Bugs do.  That was the first report I've
seen in years of not being able to save face settings.  "Save Options"
is right there on the same menu with "Font Size", and it works, for
those fonts that the menu knows how to change sizes for.  So I wanted
to know how you think so we can not only document this particular
thing correctly, but maybe fix other similarly misdocumented features.

Who derided anybody?  "Insult is taken, not given."  You would seem to
be highly skilled at finding insult where none was intended.
