I am using a nice Java program for train schedules provided by the Austrian railways:

But even when changing the textsize to large in the programs settings, the size of the text is tiny, due to the high resolution of the Blackstone. Is there a way to change this by some system settings?

I suppose you have Jbed.

Hello, I have a very poor vision and sometimes I can hardly read the ID of the incoming caller in my MDA PRO.
When I used my old Qtek 9090, the "caller ID" application let you decide the text size, now this feature is integrated in outlook, but I found no way to adjust this parameter...
Of course I have put the OS text size to its maximum, but I'd bette have it a little bigger..
Can you please help me? thanke
If I'm not mistaken, an application such as Tweaks2k2 can change the default font, although I'm not sure about the font sizes.
I know that Nyditot's rotate program has a nifty setting that will allow you to change the font size, exactly like the appearance tab in Windows. Bit much to buy the program just for that option, though.

Thanks a lot for answering, unfortunately none of the two applications is what I'm looking for, Nyditot magnifies the screen indeed, but I wish I had something only affecting the "dialer" aspect, in order to easily read the caller's number or name with a glance, Regarding the other application or pages I'd better levae them as they are..
I suppose there is something to tweak in the registry, or a "skin modifier" for the dialer, but I did not find anything like that so far..
for all the rest I love this PDA, I would neve go back to something without a real keypoard and such a wonder connectivity...
Try this out:

It has an option for FULL SCREEN Caller ID

Wow!!!!! God bless you
it W O R K S ! at last!!!
very valuable sugestion, thanks!
Anybody else using the free dictionary WordNetCE on their diamond.
I am finding the font size to be far too large for easy easy (2 words per line)
the software only allows the font to be reduce to size 8 which is not enough.
Navigating to the wordnet directory i found the file the controls the fontsize and adjusted it to 6, but the software does not obey this parameter when starting and returns to its default setting.
Anybody have a suggestion of what else i can try to improve the usability of this software
thanks
yeah, me too, same problem. Unless someone else uses a different freeware dictionary that works with the HTC Diamond?.....
Used it alot on my x7510, it was real treat, it changed the my prospective about the Device, and it turned the bulky Mobile phone into a mere-laptop.
When are we going to see a version for our HD?
Any News?
Thanks to All...
I suspect that Advanced Config and TweakHD applications provide most of what you are looking for... you can change various menu and scrollbar and icon sizes/spacing and most applications allow you to change font sizes... with my old eyes I'm typically trying to make things bigger... if RealVGA is doing something different by just changing the default dpi then my appologies.
I have recently bought an HTC Diamond2 and upgraded its ROM to the official WM6.5, still using TouchFLO 3D. I have set the character size to the largest available size (through Settings), yet the character size in 'Contacts', SMS text and the digits when I dial a phone number is too small for my eyes.
Is there a Registry Tweak or Utility to further increase the character/font size?
I use a utility from here to zoom in/out text from SMS text, which is good but not adequate (NB that no sliding bars appear for the text to be read properly but...).
In addition, mine is bought from the Netherlands, yet I installed the official Greek WM6.5 ROM.
I tried RealVGA, but a single DPI is available (hence useless).
Thanks in advance for any information.
there is a magnifying program for the phone. Maybe this is something for you?

i believe the real life application: "reading glasses" might also be appropriate here
jokes aside, magnification programs are easy to use. search for them in this forum. a few available i think.
I do own the real-life application "reading glasses"; the problem is that when I am about and the phone rings, it is not easy to take the 'application' out of my pocket and 'run' it.
I have also installed the Zoom In/Out application for SMS.
Nevertheless I am surprised there is no information on how to change the character DPI under WM6.5 or the screen resolution.
Thank you again for your answers
The fontsize from the SMS tab can be found in a _manila-File.
But i forgot in which file... You could ask a rom cook, who build in a biger SMS font.
I changed the font on Manila 2.1, but not on 2.5 with Mode9 editor.

You can just use the slider to enlarge the text in SMS and emails.
As far as the system text.... maybe Advanced Config?
Thank you, but the proposed application does not run for some reason (I have install the latest mobile .net framework (version 3.7). Should I use 3.5 instead?
As for the last reply, I have set the character size to maximum from the Settings, but they are too small due to the small screen size compared to the resolution.
Judging from a LG GT500 I would say that a resolution of about 320x200 (or slightly higher) would be alright, but I know neither the Registry setting (if one is available) or a working application that can do the trick.
Thanks again for the replies though.
Try NET CF v3.5.
Is it possible to have bigger fonts size to read SMS in the Sense (I know how to make it in windows mode). Any cab or registry mod? Thank in advance.
Went searching the registry and found an obvious entry. Changed the default setting of 2 to 5, soft reset and I no longer have to squint my eyes !
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCMessaging\Fonts\FontScale
A word of caution to those with huge amount of sms. I suspect it may cause lagging with the increased font size.
Open a SMS, menu -> font size?
