Specialty Font With Extra Kerning Above and Below The Letters

"To provide an indirect resolution to this problem I'm having with Windows Explorer"
Call me dense, but I don't see the problem.  Are you suggesting your system font is large enough that the file and folder names are too close to each other vertically?

Hi Paul,

Ah!  I did a poor job explaining.  You wrote:

You are right.

A bit of line height there would be a huge help to reduce the kind of matrix-like presentation there, especially when there's hundreds of lines and I'm trying to locate one.  The line height would really help.



Sincerely,

OT

Hi Joe & Paul,

Thanks for the kind words.  Its indeed a bummer, but I know I can handle it.  Feel grateful for the good care I've gotten, and the kind help from all you all! :)))

Thanks for Andrew's link, Joe.  And for the insight to kerning v. leading!!  That's COOL to know!

I'm at 100% now.  You're right - I've changed the font size there with this clever tool: https://www.wintools.info/index.php/advanced-system-font-changer - and was able to change the Explorer font style itself, too!

You're very welcome, OT, and thanks back at you for the detailed reply...that describes things very well and certainly explains what's happening on your system.

That Advanced System Font Changer does look like a clever tool...provides an easy-to-use GUI that replaces your having to modify the registry (which, no doubt, is what it does under the covers).

Building your own font is an interesting idea, but, as you rightly point out, is likely to take a lot of effort/time.

Speaking of fonts, here's a site that I've used for a long time:
https://www.dafont.com

They have many free fonts there...all the ones that I've used work very well.

Take care and stay safe, Joe

Thanks!!! :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))!!!

Pleasure!
