Hi All. How do I increase font size on both FS9 and FSX?
I find the shift and Z option is very tiny. Thank you.

I don't believe there's a way. How small is the font? I don't see why it would be too small. What's your screen resolution set to?

It's most certainly in a graphics card setting somewhere.
The last time I updated graphic drivers, the font changed, and is 'orrible.

I think much of the problem is due to Folks fascination with using extremely high Screen Resolutions!

As a test, just changing my normal Sim Hardware resolution setting from 1280 X 960 X32, to 800 X 600 X 32, means that I can read all the Text on the Cockpit screen easily, without having to wear my Spectacles, and peer painfully at the Text throughout the Sim!
Much easier on the eyes... Wink...!

P.S. ...what about increasing the Windows Font size?
