Looking it up at: http://lists.dillo.org/pipermail/dillo-dev/2015-August/thread.html @Plmalternate Pls., do not get me wrong. It took me a while to figure out that your initial email was: [Dillo-dev] Dillo-dev Digest, Vol 19, Issue 11 - UI font size ? http://lists.dillo.org/pipermail/dillo-dev/2015-August/010633.html and that the next one was: [Dillo-dev] Dillo-dev Digest,v19#12 UI font size http://lists.dillo.org/pipermail/dillo-dev/2015-August/010636.html but in a different thread (that's the reason for not only my confusion --you don't read every email in every thread if you're short of time) And only then there is this thread to which I am forwarding this message. I see and I hope you might even, maybe, compile, the UI fonts, so you are not a newbie like I thought you were. My mistake was not out of lack of respect.

which does have converging (or common) points, with your issues.
But pls. don't worry, but rather keep up your efforts to learn, instead.

LATER NOTE (on second sending: also pls. reply to this mail, and to the list, not like I replying only to you, in hurry as I was).
Re: [Dillo-dev] Dillo-dev Digest,v19#12 UI font size
and you can see I changed the subject line to read like Jorge did, to keep it the same.
Also, you need to reply to emails by hitting the "Reply" button, so that it is visible what email you are replying to, by the simple fact that the text of that email is contained in the email of yours, like Jorge did, and like I did. See, your email is within this email of mine.
But now that I have clicked your links, I think maybe they were. But I confess that I have not yet been able to understand. Are you saying I should change something in the source and recompile Dillo? If so, would you mind saying exactly what file and how I should change it? I don't know how much time I can set aside, as I really have other issues, and real-world problems, but I might try to help you a little...
But pls. do your best, as this is a developers' mailing list. Else we may be of distraction to the developers... And also, be patient. The other real-world issues may cause some delay in my replying to you.
I am only a wishful tester for their work, maybe I am not yet at the necessary level myself...
I don't care so much that the fonts be pretty, just legible without having to touch my nose to the monitor.
***Oh, no, now I see this!***
And I know, I remember so well, how I had to rub my nose into my monitor to see the fonts! No, this is (probably) not a UI issue, Jorge, if you are reading, it's not! This is a fonts not scalable issue (probably!...
I'm assuming you are using some kind of Linux. Are you? Let's first see, if you can find the file in your home directory, do this, as user, not as root:
cd /home/<replacer-this-with-your-username>/.dillo
And with the next command, you ought to see something like:
ls -l total 36 -rw------- 1 miro miro 67 2015-07-04 15:29 cookiesrc -rw------- 1 miro miro 173 2015-08-28 18:36 cookies.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 miro miro 13984 2015-08-28 19:52 dillorc -rw-r--r-- 1 miro miro 990 2015-02-15 07:00 domainrc -rw-r--r-- 1 miro miro 157 2015-02-15 07:00 dpidrc -rw-r--r-- 1 miro miro 2935 2015-02-15 07:00 keysrc
Let me read your reply and explanation of what you see, and esp. if you can, maybe, now, understand, what I explained in the:
http://www.CroatiaFidelis.hr/foss/cap/cap-150824-Schm-capt/Screen_150824-Gen...
that is, to edit, with a normal editor in Linux, such as Vim, Emacs, Nano, or such, the line that reads (something like):
[[ I use Vim, but you can use any editor you like ]]
#font_factor=1.0
,,,You can change that line to read, maybe:
font_factor=1.5
for starters...

I do this by setting "font_factor=1.4" in dillorc (it is under "RENDERING SECTION").
There's also "font_min_size". I use this in my dillorc:
# Minimum font size font_min_size=18

Thank you, sir. I tried that wth 1.4, 1.5, and 5.0, rebooting each time. Makes no difference I can see on either a 32 bit Ubuntu 14.04 with plain Openbox or a 64 bit PCLOS with LXDE.
I suspected I should put something in ~/.fltk/fltk.org/fltk.prefs but when I searched on that filename the only things I found touching on the subject did so simply to say that was wrong.
Just to be clear: I'm talking about the font size of the text buttons/menus:
1st bar: "File" & whatever is in the url field like "example.com" 2nd bar left: "Back", "Forw", "Home", "Reload", "Save", "Stop", "Book", and "Tools". 2nd bar right: "Images x of y" & "Page z kb"
For some of those there is a corresponding icon, the size of which is SLIGHTLY adjustable through Tools, Panel Size, but text size doesn't change as far as I can see. I could do without the icons, personally, but that's just me.

I saw the mail wasn't reported sent to Walter Dnes, so I thought I'd inform here.
I recently posted a comment on the "www-client/dillo should depend on x11-libs/fltk[xft]" WONTFIX but on Gentoo Bugzilla: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=554588#c9
Note also the link there to the Forums topic: A Tentative at dillo-3.1-dev ebuild https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1021878.html#7806130 where also notice the video:
http://www.CroatiaFidelis.hr/foss/cap/cap-150824-Schm-capt/Screen_150824-Gen...
in which I explain it so even newbies can understand something's likely wrong with the treatment of us users of Dillo with the WONTFIX attitude, in my opinion.
BTW, also notice the strange kind of pasting with the 3.1-dev Dillo, or is it something else? (in the more or less entire bug in question it can be seen... No, you can't notice it in the previous comments I posted, they cleaned it, only this one last, before they clean it too...).
There is another issue, if I manage to write that separate topic about tonight, it's about: Why, oh why the Schmoog captcha? https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1027382.html (but separately if I manage)
I did my best. Regards! -- Miroslav Rovis Zagreb, Croatia http://www.CroatiaFidelis.hr
