Description Sense Hofstede 2010-06-27 10:28:56 UTC
The font size used in chats by Empathy is controlled by themes. However, some users -- especially visually impaired -- might want a larger (or smaller) font.

At the moment this can only be done by editing the theme's XML file by hand, not really an optimal method.

This bug was originally reported by maek on Launchpad in Ubuntu at <https://launchpad.net/bugs/598418> and was accepted for the One Hundred Paper Cuts project.

I've left the severity at the default because I don't know what severity would be most appropriate here. The bug is both an enhancement request as well as an accessibility issue.
