I fully agree with you and would prefer a lager font too.
Everything larger than the current default font results in odd truncated text and text that does not fit
in several windows elsewere in jv16PT (the last line does not show in the window).
I reported this potential problem already during beta testing.
An additional problem:
1. Enable the radio button for Transparency effects
2. Move the slider underneath to the right.
3. In 2 out of 3 times JV16PT enters a program loop, only to be stopped by the task manager.
