Mavericks system font is too small. how can change it to larger

as title

I have to second this problem - everything on my 27" iMac is tiny!
The status bar, the top bar in any window - all text is minute...
In Safari I can zoom in (though the double tap to auto zoom on a page is gone).
The font size now mirrors my brain size for "upgrading" too soon yet again ~:o(

The default print size on Pages is too small - how can I program it to be larger?

The default type size in Pages is too small - can I permanently size is larger? Thank you.

Hi Ellis,
When you say the default font size, is this set by the template you use for a new document? If so, create your own. Open a blank template, set the font size, and Save as Template... with a new name.
In Pages > Preferences > General > For new Documents > Use Template.
Choose your template. When you open Pages, it will open that template.
File > New will also open that template.
The font of a document from someone else has been set by the author of that document. You will have to change it.
Also, have a look at View > Zoom. Perhaps the font is not small, but your view of the page is small.
Regards,
Ian

System Font Size Too Small

I just received a new 15 inch powerbook today (Dec. 2005). It has increased screen resolution with respect to the previous model, but I think the default font size (i.e. top menu bar, safari window bar font size) is noticeably smaller than the older powerbooks. The problem is you can't adjust this - in Finder - show view options only controls the desktop icon size and font sizes. In safari you can make the page text bigger, but not the font size of the window. There is the Zoom option in accessibility, but I really only need a small global font increase. Does anybody know a work-around?
thanks
Trevor

Download and use TinkerTool.
Thanks - but it said something like "this is not adjustable" and asked to click an "understood button". Subsequent system font adjustments did not do anything. It looks like the adjustability varies for different OS X releases...

Apple Mail (Mavericks), Viewing size of list is too small.how do you increase the size of the email message list. The font is too small, I can hardly read them.

In Apple Mail, using Mavericks, how do you increase the size of the email message list that displays on the left side of the screen?
The font size is so small.
Thanks.

Thank you for responding. After investigating and checking further, it was clear that only one of your suggestions changes the font size of the list of emails, also called the In-box. And that is the display resolution.
However, changing the display resolution affects the dots per inch of everything, everywhere and makes it larger.
Given the high end fee Apple charges for their products, and the generally well developed software they provide, it is hard to imagine they have not corrected this obvious slight of effort on the inbox text. At times Apple's "one-size-fits-all" and "it's our way or no way" mentality astounds me and makes me want to run back to Microsoft.
Evidently this is a well known mistake, which has yet to receive any attention.
Again, thank you for your effort and assistance on my behalf.

N97 mini Web Feeds Font is too small and can't fin...

Is there any other way to increase the font of the web feeds.
The feeds font seems to be fixed. I adjusted it in the setting page to the largest without any effect. It only apply to the main webpages.
Can anybody help?
Or do I have to wait for a firmware upgrade to fix this bugs?

it's a bug but there is no fix unfortunately. It's just like the music player back button issue which nokia has failed to fix.

"The data area passed to a system call is too small." Windows 8

I am not a developer - thus many comments do not make sense to me, as I'm just a heavy user. Today, about a year and half after beginning to use Windows 8, hyperlinks in my emails return the error "The data area passed to a system call is too small."
Can you give a layperson (i.e. simple - is it fixable and can I fix it?) answer to this error? If I copy and paste the URL into my IE 10 browser, it works. However, this takes more time than I usually can afford given how often I use email links to continue
my work.
Here's a picture of the error message:
OOPS, just got big RED message: Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account.
I seem to have one (logged in automatically as sunwalkermsdn).
Thanks for any help to this newly appearing issue.
(will I get an email if you post an answer? - due to same message above, I cannot enter my email address)

I've shrunk my fonts box too small!

Thanks to everyone for your gracious help!
I've shrunk my font box too small, and can't get it to enlarge again. I dragged its resize control (bottom right corner of the panel) but now can't drag it back.
Thank you - Julie

Hello Julie
I assume you are referring to the Font Inspector. If so, you should see three little circular buttons in the top left of the window. As you move your mouse over the third from the left it should go green with a + symbol. Click it and it will expand again. If you aren't talking about this, please post back.

The only way to increase the fonts on your desktop would be system wide by going down a notch on the resolution. Some people won't do it because it increases the pixel size so the fonts won't be quite as sharp; I decided I'd rather have that than having to squint continuously. Go to System Preferences > Displays > Scaled > this will give you all resolution options available. No harm in trying - just check the default (top) choice again if you don't like any of the others.
It's a b*&^ch getting old . I still use the screen zoom instead of decreasing resolution, but maybe soon ...
