To achieve a large-print desktop, perform the following steps:
-
Use the Appearance preference tool to select the Large Print theme.
-
Click on the Apply Font button to increase the size of the font that is used on the desktop and on window frames.
-
Use the Desktop Font option in the Font tab to increase the font that is displayed on desktop background objects.
-
Increase the font size that is used to display the contents of the Terminal application window.
-
If the Use default theme font option is selected in the gedit (Text Editor) Preferences dialog, gedit uses the font size that is specified in the large-print theme that you selected. However, if the Use default theme font
option is not selected, increase the font size that is used to display the contents of the gedit text editor window. See the gedit manual for more information.
-
If you use applications that use panes, such as the file manager and help browser, you may need to change the size of panes to accommodate the large print. See the online help for the appropriate application for more information.
