Thumbs down Catalogue Displace

I have a slight visual impairment.

When viewing a Calibre catalogue I would like to see fewer entries at once, but the print on those entries be LARGER.

I found a place in the Calibre options menu to "change font." I'm not sure if this means change font in the catalogue display, or if it is the font in the Calibre internal ebook reader. The option requires a restart. I'm not sure if these means a restart of the program or the computer. I have tried both, with no effect, and the listed font remains the same.

Can anyone please help me increase the font on the size of the catalogue display in Calibre? I have a Kindle and use it to read Ebooks. Works great and easy to increase font if I need to.

Thanks in advance.

Click on the Change Font button
Select the font size you want
Click OK
Click Apply
A new window will open - click on Restart calibre now.

Calibre will restart and the UI should be using the new font size you selected.

What format is the catalogue - AZW3, BIB, CSV, EPUB, MOBI or XML?

Thank you!!! The "apply" was the step I was missing. Worked like a charm!
