Add the ability to increase font size within ILLiad without impacting other application
The current font size in the staff interface is not adjustable within the application. It would be useful and decrease eye strain if the font could be adjusted to user preferences, Regular, Large or Extra Large maybe? When the Windows font size is adjusted, it affects all other programs making them too large.

This is a huge accessibility issue. I have wanted the fonts to be adjustable since I first began working in ILLiad as a student employee years ago. I agree with many other comments that it is wild this has not been addressed sooner. The font is so small it is hard to read in general and causes eye strain and headaches. I don't understand why we have 8 options for "skins" in the settings to change the style theme of ILLiad, but we have no ability to change the font size. I would prefer Atlas focus on making their current product accessible for their users before focusing on developing features using AI.

It's wild that this hasn't already been addressed! I have giant dual monitors at work that make the default fonts almost tolerable, but it's near impossible to do anything but basic tasks on a laptop when working from home. I am in my 40s, but ILLiad makes it feel like I'm twice as old.

The staff is struggling due to the small font. They frequently complain of headaches and eye strain.

Incredibly important for accessibility issues.

The font size changes need to be localized from within ILLiad. Changing the entire computer's font sizes is nice and all, but it causes problems elsewhere IF you can even access that setting without having to navigate the maze of IT lock-downs.
Accessibility is important for all of us. Please prioritize this development!

This is 100% an accessibility issue. I have increased the DPI on one of my two screens on my work computer in order to make ILLiad type larger, and it is still smaller than I would prefer. When remoting in from home on a small laptop, there's basically nothing I can do to make using ILLiad comfortable on my eyes.

I have to keep squinting to read the TN number and other fields without alphabetic characters. An increased font size would be a big help!

Yes, this is very much needed. Especially for those of us whose eyes are not as young as they once were!

It is extremely important for staff who have vision issues. It causes headaches and blurry vision.

This causes me a lot of pain as a staff member using ILLiad all day. I would really love to see some work on this for accessibility.

Even with a dual monitor setup (which can't work on the go/WFH) my eyes feel the strain using ILLiad. Please make this a priority!

I haven't done ILL in 15 years, now filling in for someone and I'm really struggling with the small font! Good grief! please make this adjustable!

I had my work computer recently updated to Windows 10. The ILLIad font size is about a 6 or 7 which is very hard to read, especially the TN.. Enlarging the font size for everything else does not work: the font is still too small. ILLiad needs adjustable font sizing within the application to accommodate people with different visual abilities. We use ILLiad every day so this user-friendly this should be a higher priority.

I had my work computer recently updated to Windows 10 and found that your instructions doesn't work because the setting doesn't exist. I am only able to change by "Scale and Layout" which changes the size of everything.

I just looked for this "make text bigger" setting on my Windows 10 machine per the linked articles from Sara, and it's not an option. I can only "Make everything bigger"; there's no option for making just the text bigger. a brief internet search seems to indicate the "make text bigger" setting may have gone away in an update of Windows ca. 2017 or 2018.

I'm not old or visually impaired, but the font size in ILLiad is small. I don't want to make everything in Windows larger, just ILLiad. Can't ILLiad have adjustable text sizes within the client itself? If I make ILLiad full-screen, the text stays the same size.
