Request for Font Customization in Zotero 7 PDF Reader

Dear Zotero Team,

I have noticed the useful "add text" feature in the Zotero 7 PDF reader but would like to request a simple addition: the ability to adjust font size and style. This customization would greatly improve readability and cater to individual preferences, making Zotero 7 an even more versatile research tool.

Thank you for considering this enhancement.
  • How exactly do you want to change the font style and for what reason?

    Font size can be changed by resizing text annotation while holding one of the corners.
  • I think the requirements of the poster are similar to mine, that is, this feature can set default sizes and styles. Because the default size is currently too large in most cases, if you manually adjust it every time, the efficiency will undoubtedly be very low.
  • I hope it is able to set the default size, font, and color for text annotations.
  • +1, need to change text size.
  • +1, changing the annotation box is clumsy and results in variable font sizes across the pdf
  • I would also find this really helpful. While it's easy enough to resize the font to a fair approximation, having to do so again with each new textbox becomes a slight annoyance. If it could remember the textsize and colour from the last used box this would go a fair way if a font size selector is too hard.
  • +1 The default fonts are often too large for pdf
  • +1. Really nice feature, but the default fonts are too large. Also find it clumsy to change the box everytime.
  • +1. The fonts are too large, adjusting the boxes hurts productivity, and it is a bit buggy/non-smooth - sometimes the boxes disappear in the page; if you past long text inside a textbox, it becomes too big making the paper's content disappear; etc.
  • +1. Zotero for iPad has this feature, but not on the desktop client. Resizing the textbox (by dragging) is a workaround, but I don't want to resize every time. Something similar to the iPad version would be nice.
  • +1, I hope to change the default size in "add text". It will be perfect.
