Can You Change the Font Size in the Preview Pane?

It's nice that I can change the appearance of the text editor. Is there a way to customize the preview pane as well?

You can do this via Tools » Options » Stylesheets » Select a stylesheet and click [edit]. There you can change basically anything, but you need to know CSS.

Hint: look for lines that start with font-size:. You can change the value behind it to anything you like.

that's crazy -- perhaps something like Ctrl-+ and Ctrl-- could be added?

It's about the preview panel. Ctrl +/- only makes sense for the markdown panel. The preview is basically just a web browser frame displaying some HTML. Maybe Ctrl +/- already works there. But that's something Internet Explorer has to make sure of.

It's just.. Markdown gets converted to HTML. After that conversion all the rules of the HTML world apply. That means: CSS for styling. There isn't much you can do about it. But it's actually the point of Markdown.

Agree. This feature is a must. My eyes refuse to recognise the tiny fonts in the preview pane.
