Hello to All. My eyesight is not perfect. I generally use the internet with 1064x728 resolution and large font size. When I use Photoshop the font size of the tool box and of the drop down menus for layers, filters, layer styles etc is too small and tiring for me. Changes of the screen resolution and of the font sizes at Windows level seem to have no effect on these fonts sizes of the Photoshop user interface. In vain looked everywhere to find a parameter that will make the font size of the user interface larger. Any help from forum members will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

In Windows: Edit > Preferences > General > change "UI Font Size" to "Large" > click OK > restart Photoshop.

In Mac OS X: Photoshop > Preferences > General > change "UI Font Size" to "Large" > click OK > restart Photoshop.

Hope that helps!
Matt

Thanks a lot Matt. I have Photoshop Elements 2.0. The Edit > Preferences > General > option does not have "UI Font Size". Probably this solution is available in more recent versions of Photoshop.
