Make font sizes bigger in Fedora 6

Q I've just installed Fedora. How do I make the font size larger on the desktop/system.

A Ah! An easy question. I like easy questions. The font size in Fedora is set in the System > Administration menu, under the Fonts menu item. When the Fonts Preferences box appears, click on Details in the bottom-right corner, then look for the resolution in the top-left corner of the new window. Increasing that number makes fonts bigger, and will also make buttons, windows, menus and other things larger so that the fonts fit properly. Be sure to write down the original resolution, though, just in case you want to get back to it in the future.
