I think I may have solved that problem, albeit not due to my own talents, but rather in spite of myself. I already mentioned that you might want to look at the Trinity Control Center: TCC > Appearance & Themes > Fonts Then I skipped over this, because of course I made all these settings way back in the antediluvian days of KDE3, Hardy Heron 8.04x, about 2006 or thereafter. I think that this will do what you want; at least, it has allowed me to make my fonts in those places MUCH BIGGER. This affects input fields in Konqueror, Kmail, Kedit, all the Trinity applications that I tried. Probably I did not bother readjusting these settings over the years, because I had it set once, on the original machine, and it has always suited me just fine ... except of course, time has passed, I have gone through a whole stable of machines, and I myself have grown older though not wiser, because I am totally in denial. I've been having a hard time seeing a lot of things, especially on my machines. In the real world, I use the old-fashioned ways of coping, like getting bifocals when I changed the prescription for my glasses. In the digital world, it seems like developers are obsessed with squeezing in the greatest amount of information possible into the smallest conceivable spaces, so icons & embedded fonts, etc., are getting smaller and smaller, and screen resolution gets finer and finer. Anyway -- at least, in TDE -- you can still change this yourself. Just keep checking what you've changed, to see how it affects different applications. Already my own machine is easier on the eyes.
