How do I define the universal font size?

Just started using my new iMac. It appears that the default Arabic font(s) look very small on web sites and programs (at least smaller than Windows).

So, is there any way I could adjust the Arabic font size to a bigger size and apply to everything else?

Use + in safari to make the text bigger on those pages

Thanks, but I don't want the text to be bigger.

I want the Arabic font only to be bigger in all applications (define it in the system or something).

How can this be done?

Maybe try an Arabic version of Firefox, dunno but that might let you alter the font size

louishen, it's not about Firefox only. I want to adjust the size of the Arabic font for THE WHOLE SYSTEM.

You need a utility called TinkerTool.
