I've had a problem reading the pop up panels when processing photos. The subject photo is great then I want to take an action (exporting for example) the block is hard for me to read. Is there a setting I can change the size of these panels? Tried to search the archives, no luck. Preciate any help before my eyesight fails completely.  John |

Hi John,
Did you try going into LR's Preferences and then the Interface tab? You should be able to change the font size in there.

I tried enlarging the print using me interface tab and preferences all I can do is increase the percent number and nothing changes with the font size. Thanks for your help. Maybe I'm doing wrong .

I know I had a "magnifying glass" installed once, on a Windows machine. I'm afraid to recommend one, but maybe someone can help you? EDIT: look what I found. Magnifying glass I havent read the article, but it seems like it's installed already? |

Simone's suggestions work; I have just tried them. After you choose a size (with a percentage), you need to click on the "Restart Lightroom" button at the bottom of the dialog. The font size won't change unless you do this last step.

Sepiana - on the Mac side - with a purchased version of 6 - I only have "Font size: Small (default) or Large". There is no percentage size and no "Restart Lightroom" button at the bottom of the dialog. After setting these - I have restarted and the fonts are still on the smaller side.

Bruce,
It looks like the options to change the font size in Lightroom on a Mac are indeed different from the ones on Windows. This was brought up in this thread in the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom forum.

tried to change the font size, and it was hardly any difference. I think the large font is the first. ![;)]() I could see an enormous difference; I am on Windows. There seems to work in a different way on a Mac according to that thread from the Lightroom forum posted earlier in this thread. I believe John is using Windows. Then, he will have more leeway changing the font size. |

I see nothing about restarting LR to save changes. I am running Win 10 and have LR 4. My options for Font size is Small, Automatic and Large. Automatic is the Default and I have it set to Large. That's the only options for font size. Below the font size is an entry for Dim Level with options of 50, 70, 80 and 90%. I've changed every setting and get no font size change. Am I missing something?
