E61i fonts

how can I enlarge the fonts on the E61i in sms, e-mail and all other input text areas? I tried Psiloc Font Magnifier V1.30 but this application only enlarges the menu text which is already large enough to read. I am looking for a solution to make sms,
e-mail text and all other input text either at least bold permanently or increase / change the fonts. thank you for your help.

 

Windows Bug. Apparently I've encountered this issue a few times before.

I've reached this conclusion:

You may change the Font Style ... YET there apparently is no setting to adjust the Font Size of the text! (You can choose a different Font. Refer to picture: Go through the list, look at samples of the Fonts, choose one of interest, Sign Out/Sign back in, see how it looks. Don't like any of them, don't worry about it, there's the option to go back to "Use system default"). Here's an idea. See if you can find an "Enlarged" version of the current system font, download and install it. You know I've thought about this before, but never really searched for that. I'll do that eventually, see if I can find an enlarged version of the current system font, and use that as my main font style.

Also there's other Fonts that you can actually adjust. Get: Advanced System Font Changer. It's a really good app. (Yet it doesn't have the setting I just talked about), Only Winaero has that, as far as I know.

 

In addition, the tutorial below can help show you how to change the default system font to one you may like better without needing to use a 3rd party program. *Smile

Hi Brink =)

I actually have a question about this one too. So the System uses the default Segoe UI as that font, yet do you know of a Font file that excludes the small size of that font? Or for example it has Font Size 14 set instead of what is shown for Font Size 12? (Some sort of "enlarged" version of the font). I'm aware of the Bold version of it, but that one is still too small.

 

Hello Aiman,

I'm not aware of a way to exclude a size for a font.

It seems to be a matter of finding a font that appears larger. I find "Arial Regular" or "Arial Bold" looks nice.

 

Hi Shawn,

Yea I'm trying the Arial font. I don't have "Arial Regular" or "Arial Bold" installed on my computer for some reason; Gotta find them online.
I'm trying "Arial", and it looks slightly bigger, which is good. But too bad the "colon" doesn't show correctly..*Shock

 

When you open the "Fonts" folder, click on the "Arial" font to see if you see the full family for it.

Ah I see. Now I see them all. Winaero Tweaker apparently doesn't list the "Family" of the fonts; it only shows what is basically shown in the Fonts folder. I'd have to use your tutorial to install the Regular/Bold versions. Cool. Thanks for showing me how to get to them.

 

A very nice font in the Store is Verdana Pro, 20 font faces, free as well! *Wink

 

I would like to post an update:

So I tried Shawn (Brink)'s tutorial from above, and it looks bigger! I used the Arial Regular font, and it actually looks better!

This is what I did:
1) Download the .reg file under Option One:
Change Default System Font in Windows 10 Windows 10 Tutorials
2) Open the .reg file in Notepad
3) Replace "ENTER FONT NAME HERE" with "Arial Regular" (make sure to keep the quotes, don't delete the quotes; refer to picture. Do not change anything else in that file.)
4) Save the file
5) Apply this file to the Registry by double clicking it > press Yes > press OK
6) Sign out of your account, re-log into your account (no need to restart the computer)
7) Refer to the second picture I posted below, that's what it now looks like
8) If you want to revert back to how your Windows default was, then use Option Two at the same link:

And for other reference here's what Arial Bold looks like:





This one is slightly big for me, because some of my Desktop icon text don't fit completely; they have "..."





So I'll be sticking with Arial Regular for now. It looks amazing! Just another small quick question Shawn =)
Is there's any "Segoe UI Regular" font which is similar to the "Arial Regular" font? I really grew accustomed to Segoe =D

 

You have these to select from in the "Segoe UI" font family. *Smile

 

Ah I see. My Font folder is apparently missing "Segoe UI". I'll look around to get that fixed eventually. But for now I'll be using Arial Regular. Thank you so much for that tip Shawn! It's awesome!

And to the Original Poster of this Thread, yahanna, try out: Arial Regular
That font is bigger than the font in the picture you posted. Check it out!

Thanks everyone.
