Enlarging system fonts?

I don’t know if this would help any
Click on the ‘View’ menu with the mouse.

Hover your mouse over ‘Text Zoom’ and choose a different text size from the listed options.

Or to use keyboard shortcuts:

Increase or decrease the text size with ‘Apple’ and ’+’ (plus) and ‘Apple’ and ’-’ (minus).

Take the following steps to set a different text size for all the pages you visit (this will only work on supported sites):

Click on ‘Explorer’ menu with the mouse and then click on ‘Preferences’ or press ‘Apple’ + ’;’.

If you cannot see a list of bulleted options under ‘Web Browser’ click the arrow next to ‘Web Browser’ to expand the options list, or highlight using the up arrow and then press ‘Apple’ + ‘Right arrow’ key to expand the options.

Click the ‘Language/Fonts’ section, or press the ‘down arrow’ followed by ‘Enter’.

Under the ‘Fonts and Size’ heading click on the box next to ‘Size:’ and select the font size you want. (No keyboard shortcut).

Click the ‘OK’ button, or press ‘Enter’ to return to Internet Explorer.

Maybe not sorry
Tinkertool is from what i can find the way forth

no, i don’t think the internet explorer font enlargement will have any effect

the problem is that tinker tool does not affect the menubar, maybe i can rewrite the .art file with a bigger font…only one way to find out…

Control + scroll wheel might help lol.

Sounds to me like you want to use the Screen Magnification, Cursor Magnification, and Display Adjustment abilities in the Universal Access control panel.

Screen Magnification:
Enlarge the contents of your display at any time using Zoom, located in the Universal Access pane in System Preferences. Zoom lets you use the scroll wheel on a mouse, a trackpad gesture, or key commands to magnify the entire contents of your screen by up to 40x. Thanks to powerful Quartz rendering, text, graphics, and even video magnify perfectly without affecting system performance.

Cursor Magnification:
…you can scale the cursor so it’s easier to see and follow when you move the mouse. The cursor remains scaled to the preferred size even when the cursor shape changes. The scaling remains in effect until you change it, even when you log out, shut down, or restart your Mac. And cursor scaling works in concert with other Mac OS X screen magnification technologies, allowing you to combine them in unique ways.

Display Adjustment:
You can increase or decrease contrast by switching the screen to white-on-black or black-on-white, and you can vary the contrast using a slider control. These adjustments are systemwide, not application specific, so they provide a consistent view in every Mac application.

thanks for the zoom tips, but again, that’s not what i’m looking for, what i am looking for is a way to enlarge the menubar while maintaining the rest of the screen in normal position.

thanks though
