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.

The answer is not correct. I have the most up to date version of Acrobat Pro and cannot make the list larger - I can increase my further comments which then look hideously out of proportion, but it doesnt alter the actual comments list - The actual standard comment size is the thing that we need to adjust. Attached is a screen shot shoing the bizarre combination of sizes that I now suffer. We have a team of ten people using Acrobat and a number suffer the same issue.

Same here! I want to be able to enlarge comments added by our clients, often I'll need to copy part of their comment but the type is too small so I end up missing characters, or selecting unwanted ones. There must be someway to do this, come on Adobe sort it out!
