I never felt that the fonts are too small. Have been using it on all kins of PCs and screens without any trouble. Perhaps you're using one of those 22 inch 1920x1080 screens with a rather high dot pitch? One option would be to increase the screen resolution setting in the option inspector (Format/Option Inspector... Formatting Options/Font Options/Font Properties ). Make it a global setting.
