Preview pane font size Sigil
Hi all,

I was wondering whether there is a way to change the font size on the preview pane. I find this view/pane incredibly useful as I am proofing changes in HTML, but the font is so small I'm squinting half the time. (I'm sure it is meant to be the same as what you would see on a kindle, but the screen connected to my laptop is further away than this)

Cheers

And, no. Sigil has nothing to do with Kindle. It is an ebook editor that allows you to create ePubs. What you do with the ePub after that - and who you send it to publish with is totally up to you. The Sigil preferences can set font size and type, but there is not a quick selector to make it appear like a kindle, or kobo, or iBooks, etc.

Having said that, there are some enterprising individuals who have made plugins to the Sigil program that allow different features such as outputting to the kindle format, etc.

Cheers,
