how do I change the size of the fonts in iMac menus

The small font size for menus in iMac windows is too small for me to read comfortably. How do I make them all larger?

iMac 24″, macOS 12.4

You can't. This is what I've done:


1 - put the Mac into Dark Mode. The white text agains a black background is much easier to see and read.


2 - in the System/Display preference pane select the next scaled option next to the default one to increase text size everywhere a bit. Note: If you have a laptop it will reduce the avilable screen real estate somewhat.



3 - in the System/Accessibility/Display/Display preference pane check these checkboxes.



What this does is make the text slightly larger but much more readable. I have glaucoma and AMD so this is a must for me. I hope it's given you some ideas to try.
