I am using version windows-x64\_4\_0-beta2, and the font in the entry editor is just too small. Is it possible to make it larger? I couldn’t find a way to do this in the Options.

Thanks,  
Eugene.

Hi Eugene,

the entry editor in the recent beta has been completely rewritten. Increasing the font size there isn’t possible just yet, but we are aware of the problem: [https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/3034](https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/3034) It should be possible in the final 4.0 release.

Regards  
Jörg
