From forum post http://fritzing.org/forum/thread/861 . it might be easier to implement as a zoom.

About anywhere you have text. The inspector, preferences, view list for the parts

Hi,

Could we please be allowed to change the Font size inside of Fritzing? Some of the text in the Inspector is so small I can't see some it. You guys might not notice this but your text in the About Fritzing is bigger than the text in your inspector. It would greatly help someone with limited vision to be able to see what they’re doing (like me) in Fritzing. I have a nice 27 inch monitor running at 1680 x 1050 and #10 size fonts come out as #6 size fonts. If someone was to run their monitor let’s say at 1920 x 1200- and using normal Arial #12 size font, it would look like #4 size font on that screen. With the proliferation of larger monitors (greater then 25 inches), I would thought someone would have already brought this up. Any help on this subject would be appreciated.

Hi David,

Good suggestion. Have you noticed anywhere else besides the inspector we should add this capability?

Thanks.

I am also interested in having control of the font size in Fritzing: All the text on the menus is ENORMOUS - probably something set outside fritzing - but ... I'd like a control inside fritzing, if possible!

Cheers,

Peter

Hi Peter,

In terms of menus, I think this is most likely a system setting, so will depend on he platform you're running on.

Can you guys send us a screenshot, together with your system description? And maybe one from another standard program for comparison. That would help us tracking it down.

I think that these issues have been fixed in most cases, but the option would be good. Remove imported label or close.
