TeXworks source window












8














Is there a way to increase the font size in the source window of TeXworks? I guess I'm showing my age, but for me it is almost unusable. It's kind of annoying having to put my face so close to the screen to get any work done.

          I was wondering about the same question, but for TexMaker (windows), and I did not find the "edit --> preference" as suggested by Torbjørn T.
          I have found this solution:
          Options => Configure TeXmaker, select "Editor" and then "editor font size"
          (I hope this might be useful for those like me who faced the same problem as Byron Schmuland but use a different tex compiler)
