  Hi.

  I have some entries in Arabic in my blog, and I can’t control the font size. The final font size is always the same whatever size I enter in the editing panel, and it’s a bit small to read. Is there anyway I can fix that?

  Thanks a lot
  Samer

  @samerashkar seems that the RTL fonts tend to be small. You could try these suggestions for increasing the font size, but you’d have to do this for every post/page. http://en.support.wordpress.com/editors/font-size-color/

  Otherwise, buying the Custom Design upgrade and changing the CSS stylesheet would allow you to make the change globally for all your posts. http://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-design/

  Hi Jennifer,

  Thanks a lot for your help. Sorry I wasn’t able to check this since I posted last.

  The page you linked says that we have to add a code to the text editor. I’m not tech savvy, so do you know how that’s done?

  I don’t mind doing for each post since they’re not a lot yet.

  Cheers!

  You need to add this at the very beginning of the post:
  <div style="font-size:120%;line-height:1.6em;">
  and this at the very end:
  </div>
  Change the first number to adjust the size and the second to adjust the space between lines.

  Better solution: switch to a theme with a larger default font size. See here:
