if you use nvidia, go to the control panel, there to the option adjust size and position, in it put on your monitor scaled to full screen, perform in GPU and override the scaling of the application and games, this way if you play in 2k monitor, but you put 1080p for example, you will see the game at 2k but with the 1080p interface, it is not the best way, but it avoids that the games and applications are blurred and or pixelated because the image is sharpened, that happens for example with the scale of integers.
with this, you should see the game sharp, I gave the example of my 2k monitor and playing at 1080p, it still looks small but better than playing at 2k.

Hi there JohnFX. I too require larger text/font in pretty much everything, but strongly so in TSM&PN, due that I have Nystagmus (shaking eye muscles), and now getting older...so I researched for larger text mods for TSM, and guess what? I found one. The full title of this mod is:

Simmodder99_TSM_2.0_PN_PleasantSight_UserInterfaceSavaText.package

It works beautifully, along with elmarinenow's suggestion. I also have a nVidia graphics card, and often set it to control much of the graphical aspects of my games. I use the method mentioned as my default setting for my monitor because it sort of inflates the whole screen if you will, like an enhancement for larger text viewing by a VERY comfortable margin than the auto-default setting. I cannot happily use my computer without method mentioned above.
Simmodder99's mod will help you in-game with bolder text, and a bold "caps" text.
The first letter of a word in a sentence is capitalized of course, but then in continuing each word, all letters are capitalized, but in the size of uncapped letters. You will see if you try it. It's also very medieval. LOL

Here is the page the mod is posted on, and yes, the link still works to download this mod. Thanks Simmodder 99!

All of his mods are listed and downloadable on the page.
