How can I increase the size of items in the footer?

rockster · Today, 03:46 AM

In the footer, I have enabled these items: clock, controls in chapter, and controls in book. However, their size is small. Is there a way to increase it?

The header and footer font size is set by the font size of the calibre general UI which you can change from calibre Preferences->Look & feel->Main interface

Well, the font size of the book text is bigger than the size of the items in the footer:

Yes the font size of the book text is determined by the styling in the book. And for unstyled text settings in the viewer config under Fonts.

For me the Fonts option increases only the font size of the book text. Anyway, i thought there is css style that can manage ony the font size of the items in the footer. I guess there is not.

Yes, as I said to control the header footer font size you need to configure it in the *main calibre preferences* not the viewer preferences.
