For changing the font size in the canvas this should work: self.abiword_canvas.set_font_size('48') You can place this line in __map_event_cb in AbiwordActivity.py. Though, in this case it may be better to set the zoom size. You can do that with: self.abiword_canvas.set_zoom_percentage(400) Hope that helps, Tomeu -- «Sugar Labs is anyone who participates in improving and using Sugar.
