Title: OSX system fonts too small
Post by: Craig Lamson on December 06, 2012, 11:15:49 pm

I'm sure there is no solution as my research shows but I need to ask anyway..

I have a 27" NEC pa271 at 2560x1440 resolution.  The system fonts of OSX are simply too small to use.

Suggestions?

TinkerTool (http://www.bresink.com/osx/TinkerTool.html) has a "Fonts" tab, which purports to let you make this kind of change; I've not tried it myself. I don't think there's a GUI method in any of the system software (I assume there's a command-line method which TinkerTool uses).

I've tried it. It works.

Tinker Tools is a mixed bag.

Works on somethings, not on others, still an improvement.

Thanks
