If your feeling daring there is a way to increase the font size of the hotbuttons but it requires editing a little code.
In the ui folder your using loook for the EQUI_HotButtonWND.xml file and open it with notepad.
then look for lines like this one
<Button item="HB_Button1">
<ScreenID>HB_Button1</ScreenID>
<Font>1</Font>
<RelativePosition>true</RelativePosition>
<Location>
<X>90</X>
<Y>4</Y>
</Location>
<Size>
<CX>40</CX>
<CY>40</CY>
</Size>
Theres more to the code for that particular button but the part you want to concern yourself with is
<Font>1</Font>
That determins the size of the font. Keep in mind by increasing the size of the font you will lose some of the text based on the size of the button. Possibly it will bleed over the edges though i dont think that will be the case
All you need to do is alter the number to a higher number and it will make the fonts bigger. You will need to do this for every item you want to have larger text. In this example it will need to be for each button in the file. You can probably use the replace command with notepad to do it faster. Make sure you save the file when your done then you can reload the ui in game. If your friend is using the default ui its a bit more tricky but still farily straightforward
Open the default folder in the uifiles folder make a copy of the file of the same name as above. Then paste the file in a new folder in the uifiles folder.
Then do as stated above. when in the game use the otions window load ui command and you will see the folder you created with the file(s) listed just load it up and the game will take the rest you didnt modify from the default folder.
Hope that helps your friend a little. Keep in mind you can do this to just about any file that has the
<Font>1</Font>
line in it. But there is the confines of the space alloted to it. Make the text to large for say the names int he group window and you may well cut the nam,es in half. Just play around with it and see what you can come up with.
Hope that helps and good luck to you
