Kindle Font Size

Hi

First of apologies if this is in the wrong forum, not sure if it should be a kindle or a mobi question.

i have just downloaded a free ebook from this thread https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=187192 but when i view the ebook on my kindle the font size is very small.
i know i can increase the font size on the kindle itself but i read multiple books at once and and when i switch it means i have to keep changing the font size. no big deal maybe but anoying to me.

What would be the best way to change the default font size of the book to match my other books?

Do a "Mobi to Mobi" conversion in Calibre. That allows you to reset the default font size.
