Forgit to mention, there's actually a fonts config file but it contains this text which I have followed regarding local.config file to no avail:
<!-- DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE. IT WILL BE REPLACED WHEN FONTCONFIG IS UPDATED. LOCAL CHANGES BELONG IN 'local.conf'. The intent of this standard configuration file is to be adequate for most environments. If you have a reasonably normal environment and have found problems with this configuration, they are probably things that others will also want fixed. Please submit any problems to the fontconfig bugzilla system located at fontconfig.org ________________________________ From: David H <hell...@gmail.com> Sent: 16 January 2022 00:50 To: David JamesTK <davidjame...@hotmail.co.uk> Cc: Glenn Fowler <gfowl...@outlook.com>; GnuCash users group <gnucash-user@gnucash.org> Subject: Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble It’s my understanding the file is optional so won’t appear in all locations?

GTK_DATA_HOME Versions: 3.x and more recent only GnuCash uses GTK for its graphical user interface; thus, locations that are used by GTK are also relevant.

Just switched back to using Windows (long story) but noticed the font is smaller than on Mint using the same screen. Followed most of the GTK 3.0 instructions on Wiki including editing settings.ini file as per their help file, unfortunately no change at all. Do I need to run GTK inspector to edit or can this be done in notepad (as I have done?)
