There was a series of messages on the old forum:   http://forums.esri.com/Thread.asp?c=34&f=2359&t=262767&mc=16#msgid933864

that addressed this question - when windows mobile was upgraded to 6.1, the font size in the menus for arcpad 7.1 are too small - they are smaller than the resolution of the stylus.  This is a Major problem for us - we cannot upgrade to 8.3, and the script that was suggested in a previous message did not work.  What is the solution?

We're having the same issue, with ArcPad 7.0.1 on windows mobile 6.1.
Did you ever get a resolution for this?

Hi Elizabeth,

Please confirm you are running ArcPad 7.0.1 on a Windows Mobile 6.1 OS device. I ask because ArcPad 7.0.1 is a retired version of ArcPad (June 2010) and not supported for Windows Mobile 6.1 OS. ArcPad 7.0.1 was supported on Windows CE 4.2, CE 5.0, Windows Mobile 2003, Windows Mobile 2003 2nd Ed., and Windows Mobile 5.0 versions. ArcPad 8.0 release is the first release supported for Windows Mobile 6.1 OS.

If you have ArcPad running on a supported Windows Mobile OS then I would suggest adding the ArcPadHiRes script to resolve the menu font size, http://arcscripts.esri.com/details.asp?dbid=14683. If supported configuration, this script should resolve the issue for you.

Thank you,
Denise
