Added a screenshot to show where the font sizes are too small.
E.g. in articles bought the lines would offer space for bigger fonts.
All based on Swing-Theme "Metal".
I found no better theme, Metal seems a good starting point.
I propose to copy and modify Metal theme, then see where the UI might need
rework to fit a bigger font.

giving to Harald - issues 1 & 28 would be best solved by setting OpenbravoPOS
to "Windows" skin and setting theme & font size in windows

Help! I unfortunately did not tests this on the real machine.
On my machine it works (Windows 7).
On destination machine, it does not work (Windows XP).
Font size set in Windows is ignored!
Theme "Windows" is selected and fonts highly enlarged in the rest of Windows...
Any idea?

Following is probably a dead-end:
POS-tech (forked from OpenbravoPOS as there is no recent development in
OpenbravoPOS) has 'ui.fontsize' - but the architecture seems to be already
different. Variable 'ui.fontsize' is used nowhere in our FairPOS; in POS-tech,
it is used in
com\openbravo\pos\widgets\WidgetsBuilder.java
only.

Some Google search "windows XP font size swing java" says that since java 1.4
you can apply windows font sizes to swing themes, e.g. to Metal theme.
But I have so many other open pointsother open points...
Maybe you can help?

I agree that POS-tech would be interesting, but it's too late for the current
release to look at it - maybe later. But their Wiki is quite thin (like ours)...
I would rather try to change the swing themes.

Using your search:
this switch should enable using windows font sizes in swing:
"-Dswing.useSystemFontSettings=true"
also - can you try different versions of java on our target machine? And also
java.exe/javaw.exe?

Way to override default fonts in Swing UIManager has been found.
See r143 - it is commented out, but if you enable it, it seems to work (I did
not test it beyond the Sales screen).
See also my comment in r143 where look and feel is being set, maybe there is
some more subtle way how to influence fonts.

(found using: "UIManager font size Swing")

The "-Dswing.useSystemFontSettings=true" doesn't seem to work.
But the plaf changing works!
It's perfect for now - let's plan to put this in the config screen later...
it's easy, but waste of time now...
Thanks a lot!
Open: put font size in config screen (in later milestone stock)
