works for me

Increased the font on the UI just like it claims. The small print text such as on the "add" button are now legible.

great

Does the job.

Does the job

very helpful

I am so happy I can use it. It should be a default feature in Anki.

This is an amazing addon. Bravo!

Great addon, but doesn't yet work on Anki 2.1.50 beta

If you have a high DPI display (like a 4k monitor) on Windows 10 and some of the default fonts (but not all) appear too small, this addon may be able to fix it for you.

Parfait!!!!

Wish I would have found this earlier!
Thank you soo much! : )
Thank you soo much! : )

Tools>Preferences>Basic>User interface size change to 150% and restart Anki 👍

simple and works

Works great. Perfectly fixes issue of UI text for some reason being microscopic on Windows 10. I set font size to 12 and everything looks back to normal

Does not give you control to custom the font increase as you need. Makes some fonts big and ugly and some fonts remain small. Overall very ugly.

Thanks. Solved my problem

The developer kindly directed me to this addon to solve my issue of Anki displaying a very small font size on Windows 10, and it solved my issue! In my opinion, it should be part of Anki because its toolkit does not have a font size setting. I have never liked the User interface size in the preference. I don't want to zoom an app when all I need is to increase the font size. In the past, I read quite a few posts from other people with aging eyes. They were looking for a solution. I feel for them. Without Damien's guidance, I would never have found this add-on by myself.

anki text is now big but card font is impossible to read

Great working

Fixed overly small font size on the UI.

I didn't realize it'd change the font size of the entire app. Nice!

Must have Add-on!

its inbuilt but this add-on works fine aswell

I have to make my toolbar HUGE to have a decent size of my deck list but at least it works...

Works perfectly!

Works as expected

really help me much thanxxx

crashes with Version 2.1.33 (3f403040)

This really works.

Worked perfectly.

Perfect

it works well with 18 font-size

Latest MacOS: right after installing the plugin and restart, fonts increased everywhere. Set in settings to 75%, restarted. Now settings window and plugins window are broken, I can neither change size back nor uninstall the plugin.

Great.
It could take a bigger task of collectively changing all font sizes but it's a good lacking ingredient for that soup. Thank you!

Easily set font size for readability during study periods.

works

Great!

This is great

exactely what i needed, thanks!

Works as expected!

automatically chooses size 18, which is great for me
thanks
thanks

works just as expected.

works well

For those who wanna change the size of text in browsers, the setting is under Browser > fields (right next to the "card"). and we could set the font and size of the text in browser there

Doesn't change the deck list font size

works for me

Great so far! Is there any way to modify the add on so that you can change the font family in addition to the font size?

needed!!! tyyyyy!

perfect!

Perfect!

Worked like a charm-- and was VERY necessary. Indic fonts were impossibly small before.

Thanks a lot! Wish I had discovered it some time ago. It's going to save my strained eyes!

Thank you! You saved my strained eyes.
Perfect for writing some CSS and HTML. The original text is so incredibly small for this!

For japanese learners, Edit this in init.py file so the text doesn't look like shiet
def changeGlobalFontSize():
font = QApplication.font()
font.setPixelSize(font_size)
font.setFamily("メイリオ")
QApplication.setFont(font)
def changeGlobalFontSize():
font = QApplication.font()
font.setPixelSize(font_size)
font.setFamily("メイリオ")
QApplication.setFont(font)

This is awesome.

Good stuff, does what it says

完美解决高分屏字体大小

This changes the interface but not the cards. To those reading or have commented who want to change the font size on the cards, open anki and go to: 'Browse' > click on a card then click 'cards' > on the pop up look at the 'styling' box and change the number where it says 'font size'. Then just close the window and that will change the font size for all cards of that type. For me it changed them all.

Thank you so much.

It perfectly does what is described

Works well. Does exactly what it says on the tin.

can also be used to change the font to a different one: https://anki.tenderapp.com/discussions/ankidesktop/35355-qt-toolkit-font-rendering-regression-after-windows-update-1903#comment_47535484

works like expected

خیلی عالی برای من که مفید بود فونت صفحه اصلی برنامه رو مناسب دید خودم تنظیم کرد

card text didn't change

Changed the font size of the UI bar and settings menu without changing the font size of the deck selector or cards, basically the opposite of what I wanted

thanks

Increased the font size of the UI

The download code no longer works. I get a 404 error when I try to download the add-on using the code

Looks good, checkboxes and icons are still SUPER TINY though.

Works perfectly.

Can't get past the min font issue mentioned before

Did what I needed.

Not as slick as it used to be in v2. Increasing the fontsize by going into the configurations of the add-on is really cumbersome and doesn't always do what I want it to. It increases the fontsize for the whole UI, but the actual cards still show up fairly small. With the add-on I had for v2, I could use "+" and "-" to increase/decrease fontsize for cards as I was going through them, which was really useful because for some languages like Arabic I need a decidedly larger fontsize than for others, and it was nice being able to change it on the spot without the entire UI becoming comically chunky.

Thanks a lot! For some reason my font size was absolutely huge after updating. I could fix it with this.

great for high dpi screens

Very useful! However, font_face would be really helpful too.

Original UI has a very small font

If you use this, you can't scale any field on your card to less than what its set at. So if you want a readable font for the UI, but a really small font for some metadata on your card, you're boned.

Perfect when you're using a high DPI screen.

really helpful for newer laptops

Thank you. My eyes were going to prolapse if I had to look at the size 4 font much longer.

Easier to read

The add on "Set Font Size" changed the font size in the browser and deck screens. That definitely helped. I am also looking for a way to make the text/text area on a note smaller while leaving images as full size as possible and still having the window be full screen. Right now I can make the window smaller but text stays the same size and drops off the screen when the window gets small enough.

nice

Really helpful for people with poor vision and hi-res screen! Thank you!

Կարգին հավելում է: Հենց այն է, ինչ փնտրում էի:

Not having to choose between huge scrollbars or tiny fonts is a glass of ice water in hell. Thank you so much for this!

Another add-on which solved one of the annoying issues with Anki and should be bundled by default.

Couldn't use 2.1 without it. Thank you!

Great!!! I wait this add-on for a long time.
Thanks for your sharing.
