Increase text size

Hi
I would like to know how to increase the text size, because when I am writing my entries it is a bit too small for my eyes I do know the font size can be increased but I do not know how to make text bigger

Things I have tried

In Settings > Appearance under Font size. You can also toggle on the Quick font size adjustment if you’d like.

There’s also the Zoom level (scroll down a bit in the same screen) that controls the size of the entire Obsidian window.

Hi but this will only change the fonts right ? Because what I am trying to ask if I can change the text itself. Because when I start an entry I have a title for the entry which is bigger that is intentionally and then while writing the entry I do want to make the text a notch bigger ? I hope it makes sense.

Ah, okay. I think I follow. So you want to change the size of arbitrary text in a paragraph, for example? Obsidian is a plain text editor so there are no right-clicking and changing text size options by default, but you can use HTML in your notes. e.g.

this font is <span style="font-size:40px">big</span> size

Hi thank you very much, that is perfect I will do that way

If you change the font size, it’ll affect everything and make everything larger (or smaller), so I’d adjust the font size until normal text is the size you want. If that makes the title to big, I’d then rather reduce the title size either through using a theme or by adding a CSS snippet.
