Hi, 

I recently upgraded (via the desktop Anki application, OS X) my card desks, then synced with AnkiDroid.

I can't figure out how to make the characters of my cards bigger (I'm using AnkiDroid to memorize kana and kanjis, and they occupy just 15% of my mobile screen) on a per-desk basis.

I'm using the latest versions (Anki via website, AnkiDroid via Google Play).

Thank you
Stefano

Do this from the Anki desktop client. Alter the note from the tools menu by selecting the cards. One way is to update the .card entry, by putting the font-size to higher -- try "font-size: 48pt"

.card {

font-family: arial;

font-size: 48pt;

text-align: center;

color: black;

background-color: white;

}



Personally, I add another custom class like this class

.lrg {

font-family: AnkiSimSun, "SimSun", "MS Mincho", serif;

font-size: 48pt;

}


@font-face { font-family: AnkiSimSun; src: url('_simsun.ttf'); }


And then I wrap my chinese fields in a div that uses the class like this:


<div class="lrg">{{Front}}</div>


Let me know if you have questions -- it's a pretty technical area here. You can also google "css font-size" for more info, or css in general
