The camera has a zoom feature that would allow for a smaller font, but then 
you would need to make your document size smaller.  We mostly use it for 
handwritten notes - I make the instructor use a fairly wide pen and it 
works ok.  He needed some way to write long equations out for students to 
see, it is supplemented with a power point slide set from another video source.

I was using a Hauppauge video card, but I just switched to a winnov videum.
