I have a web page with an embedded text file. The text file is named “Broadcast.txt” and it has .LOG at the top line to enter a timestamp each time it is opened. Other than that is has no other special features.I cannot find how to change the displayed font for the embedded object. I have looked in Dreamweaver to find any setting that would let us display a larger font, to no avail. Here is a snippet of the code I have: I have tried to change the font to 42pt and it still do effect. I tried changing the setting in CSS and it still will not affect change to the small displayed font. Any ideas? 

<div class="container">
  <div class="header"><a href="#"><img src="" alt="Insert Logo Here" name="Insert_logo" width="180" height="90" id="Insert_logo" style="background: #C6D580; display:block;" /></a> 
    <!-- end .header --></div>
  <div class="content">
    <h1>&nbsp;</h1>
<h2>&nbsp;</h2>
    <p>  <OBJECT DATA="Broadcast.txt" TYPE="text/html" WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="400" ALIGN="bottom" STYLE="width:96%;margin:2%;">
        <EMBED SRC="U:\Web Pages\Web Templates\greeny_blu\Broadcast.txt" WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="400" ALIGN="bottom"></EMBED>
      </OBJECT> </p>
    <p>&nbsp;</p>
  <!-- end .content --></div>

Ok, what about doing it this way? I am reading it in thru JS, it is in a frame now. I still cannot isolate the font. Here is what I have :

    You can’t change any parameters from “main” html. Browsers isolates iframes and embedded docs from parent.

    You can load text via javascript or use html rather than txt.

    TECH DETAILS 🙂

    t.txt – is file with text. You can set for it full url or place it near this page and set only it name.

        <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en-US">
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>ISC Impact Summary</title>
    <style type="text/css">
        .b-box_with_grand_text{
            font-size: 42px;
        }
    </style>
    <!--copy this block. jQuery is get from google servers-->
    <script type="text/javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        // this possible write on clean JS
        $(document).ready(function(){
            $.get('t.txt', function(data) {
                // #echo_file = id from div
                $('#echo_file').html(data);
                alert('Load was performed.');
            });
        })
    </script>
    <!--end copy-->
</head>
<body>
<!--in this block txt file content will be posted. 
Just copy id in place where you want place text-->
<div id="echo_file" class="b-box_with_grand_text"></div>
</body>
</html>

    This works but it load expensive library jQuery.
