How to enlarge the text in Acrobat's Comments List?

I have a mild visual impairment and my job requires that I work with annotated PDFs quite a bit. Below is an illustration of my question.

Is there a way to make the text in the Comments List bigger? I haven't yet found one, and the teeny, tiny text is incredibly problematic for me!

Hi Charis_Dancer:

Set the commenting size via Preferences > Commenting > Font Size (top right of dialog box). You are not limited to the drop-down menu—type in any size up to 144 pts.

That's odd.

I'm using this version.

And I still get this:

Very tiny. Very hard to read.

Oh, and I should point out also that in my drop-down menu, the largest font size is 18 and not 144.
