Flight Simulator Message Fonts

Hi All. How do I increase font size on both FS9 and FSX?
I find the shift and Z option is very tiny. Thank you.

I don't believe there's a way. How small is the font? I don't see why it would be too small. What's your screen resolution set to?

It's most certainly in a graphics card setting somewhere.
The last time I updated graphic drivers, the font changed, and is 'orrible.

I think much of the problem is due to Folks fascination with using extremely high Screen Resolutions!

As a test, just changing my normal Sim Hardware resolution setting from 1280 X 960 X32, to 800 X 600 X 32, means that I can read all the Text on the Cockpit screen easily, without having to wear my Spectacles, and peer painfully at the Text throughout the Sim!
Much easier on the eyes... ;)...!

P.S. ...what about increasing the Windows Font size?
Win 8.1 64-bit. DX11. Advent Tower. Intel i7-3770 3.9 GHz 8-core. 8 GB System RAM. AMD Radeon HD 7700 1GB RAM. DVD ROM. 2 Terra Byte SATA Hard Drive. Philips 17" LCD Monitor. Saitek Cyborg X Fly-5 Joystick. ...and a Briggs and Stratton Petrol Lawn Mower.
