Fonts being small

Hi, I have a "problem" with my fonts,

I want Thai letters bigger compared to normal letters (now its quite hard to distinguish em)

This screenshot will show what i mean:

Any help will be deeply appreciated.

Greetings, Ruben

There is an option in firefox to set min font size. Also, press Ctrl-'+' to enlarge letters.

If I resize it it with ctrl +, all gets bigger

and it applies to the whole system, should be bigger in the whole of GTK2, but only the thai letters

The only solution I can think of - use another thai font with bigger characters.

Does anyone have a solution for this problem ?

I have now installed kde-i18n (th).

The default font size is 12. But with 12, the Thai fonts are too small compared to the EN fonts( 12 = EN 12 = TH 9). If I set the size to 13, the EN = 13, but thai font = 9.

There are sizes missing in the thai font, does this mean that it is fixed size ?

The Thai font gets bigger at 14, but then the EN font is much too big.

How can I change the font size ratio (to make the thai font bigger than it is now, compared to the size of the EN fonts) :?:

I would be really interested in that as well.
Have been fighting with it for a long time now

It seems the fonts in portage are bogus.... On ubuntu which also supplies other fonts it works fine (but not with the same font).
