Windows – How can the font size be changed in Notepad++?

How can the font size be changed in Notepad++?

I just downloaded and installed Notepad++ v5.4.5 (I have been usingUltraEdit for the last 11.5 years) and can not find a menucommand for changing the screen font. I want to change it toLucida Console 18pt.


Other notes: to download Notepad++ go directly to the SourceForce download page for Notepad++.

(Note: Another question, How do I change Notepad++’s console font?, deals with changing the font (not the font size). For instance, answers to that question that only talks about font size are being downvoted.)

Solution:

Ctrl and NUMPAD +/NUMPAD - or mouse wheel to zoom in/out

Edit: Or to achieve exactly what you asked for…

Settings > Style Configurator. Under Font Style you can set the font and size
