How can I change the size of the font in NAV 2009?  There are instructions about changing the font in "Help", but I have not found any information on  changing the font size in the actual program.

    the total application?

    RE: Change font

    Hello Michelle,

    First thing. Are you using Classic Client or RTC?

    If you want to change the font settings of a specific object (page/form/report) you can do so by going to its design, selecting the item/control you intend to change>properties>and find the font-related properties. There you can change them. Exit saving the changes and you are good to go. You usually do not need special permissions to change that and even not being a NAV partner you should be able to do it most of the times. 

    Doing that though will change the font size for every single user. If what you want to change is the font for the entire application for a specific user (is this the case?), I am not sure but I believe NAV inherits that configuration by default from the font settings of Windows (OS).

    If that was the case, you could try changing the size in Windows. Beware that will change the font size of other apps as well. 

    May I ask why do you need to do this? Usually the standard font size of NAV is fine in most cases.
