Q: How to change annotation text size in Preview?

How do you change the annotation text size in Preview when filling out PDF forms? I know you can create individual text boxes but that is such a hassle when there are a lot of things to add. I feel like there has to be a way to change the large default size.

    and by clicking the box indicated with the blue arrow : the color of your font.
