Font sizes are controled by the selected skin. So you can easily patch a skin, which is just a ZIPped archive containing a simple text file that specifies the font sizes explicitly.

But may be we should be able to set the font size in the skins according to the display resolution (in dots per inch).

But most probably, you have not set your system with the correct value in dpi used by your display mode, so fonts are too little also in other apps as well (the file Explorer, the standard menus, the font size of icon titles on the desktop, etc...)

In skins, font sizes are not given in pixels, but in points, and this normally adujsts automatically to the correct number of pixels if your display mode is correctly setup.

Try to set your display to 96dpi if it's incorrectly set at 72dpi for high display resolutions. Or try setting it at 120 dpi if you need larger fonts in very high resolution (1280x1024 or more). Visit the Display Control panel of your OS to do those settings.

Note that some skins will not be very readable if you use some Asian or Semitic characters. Notably Han ideographs, Korean Hangûl, Thai, Traditional Arabic, or pointed Hebrew.

For Thai, there's a known issue because it requires taller linespacing for the same point size.

Also some skins are activated with Bold characters, and won't work well with complex scripts. You need to choose a skin that does not use bold characters (for example for button labels).

The OS native skins for windows and MacOS should mimic the metrics of the OS desktop. So it's still the best choice (as it does not use bold if the OS specifies that bold should not be used).
