Changing font size in e-mail

Somehow I managed to accidently change the font size in my e-mail account.  The display of any of my folders is now so small as to be difficult to read at best.  How can I enlarge the font to a more readable size?

Hold down the Control key on your keyboard and click on the + sign to increase the font size. Holding down the Control key and the MINUS key will make the text smaller.

  • Is the option to change font sizes in the Mail message list broken?

    I can change the font and font size in the messages themselves, but not in the column that lists the messages. Weird. A Google search didn't turn up any references to the problem. Using OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 on a 2012 MacBook Air.

    Thanks, Barney, but if the font settings don't affect the message list, the option to adjust size and font in the message list shouldn't be offered in the mail preference panel. This feels like a bug. To display a list in a font too small for users to read without providing an option to enlarge it is bad user interface design.
    You'll have to talk to Apple about that. I don't work for them, nor does just about everybody else here.

  • How to change font size of incoming mail in mail app?

    Formatted text in many incoming mails (written in outlook?) is ridiculously small. There was a terminal command to cure this annoyance but that doesn't work in OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 on my MacBook Pro anymore! (Nor can it be set in the preferences). How come it's not possible to adjust the text size of the mails I receive permanently and once and for all? Talking about the best OS ever?
    Thanks in advance!

    Its there
    Go to Tools -> Options
    Then under Environment you've fonts and colors tab where you can specify a higher font size.

  • How can I change the font size on the Mail program?

    How can I change the font size on the Mail program?  The text is quite small right now.

    Go to fonts and colors in Mail preferences and there you can change the font or size for the different parts of Mail.

  • I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    You can type the email using what you set in preferences and then highlight the text and use command - minus sign (or command - + for larger) to reduce the size of the text.
    You can also type command - T and a window will appear allowing you to select fonts/sizes/color/ background highlight.
    The above works in Notes also. I haven't tried to do this in any other Apple application.
    For incoming emails, you can use the above to reduce font size, but I don't know of a way to permanently set the incoming font size to a default.

  • How do you specify a minimum font size for incoming mail?

    Is there a way to specify a minimum font size for incoming mail messages? Mail I get from others is almost unreadable and I always have to manually (apple +) increase the size.
    As a test, a friend on a PC (most mail I get comes from Windows) kept increasing the size he sent me, but when I received it there was no change in size on my end.
    I can't find anything in Mail's menus and preferences to change this behavior.
    Mail 2.07; OS 10.4.6.
    Thanks,
    Cathy

    if i had the problem then i'd make a backup copy of
    my ~/library/preferences/com.appple.mail.plist file,
    open the original in property list editor, look for
    any likely elements that have small or negative font
    sizes and set them to, say, 12, save the changes and
    see if that helped
    Found the file; couldn't open it (tried Text Edit?) to make any changes.
    You can use the following trick to force Mail to
    always use a larger minimum font size on received
    messages - some HTML messages might not look exactly
    as intended but at least you can now read them:
    1. Quit Mail
    2. Open the Terminal
    (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal) and type in the
    following:
    defaults write com.apple.mail
    MinimumHTMLFontSize 13
    3. Restart Mail.app and your HTML messages are
    readable.
    Of course you can set the point size to whatever you
    like.
    Found file; was not comfortable inputing text as this simple task did not behave properly.
    PC friend said other Mac user reported this same anomally with receiving small text from him. I have over a dozen different PC users that I correspond with where I have this problem. It seems to be on the Mac end.

  • How to change font size on screen

    how to change font size on screen

    I'm not certain what font sizes you wish to change, when on a page you can use command and the += button to zoom in and make the fonts larger. On the finder desktop you can make what ever is on the desktop larger or smaller from the finder menu click view, custom view options, and adjust the icon size with the slider on the top, and the text using the text size box to select the size that your comfortable with.
    Forgot to add these.

  • How to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?

    hi All
    That's great when using SQL Dev.
    But I also have a trouble that how to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?
    My users think that font in result screen is shown very small, and whenever the data in each colum is long then it's not shown full data in column, they must double click for extend the size. Have the option to default the max size for showing full data in each column ? I try but still not to do that .
    Appreciate for anyone to help us.
    Thanks all.
    Sigmasvn

    You can't change the font for the results screen yet, however you will be able to select an auto-fit option for selected columns, so if some columns have slitghtly wider text you'll be able to set the column widths to handle these wider columns.
    Also, there s the option of switching the layout of a record in the grid.

    If by changing font-size you mean in your web pages, the answer is use CSS with values in px, em or %.
    body {font-size: 100%}
    p {font-size: 1em}
    h1 {font-size: 3em}
    h2 {font-size: 2.5em}
    h3 {font-size: 2em}
    h4 {font-size: 1.5em}
    and so on....
