The 3.4.3 installer used normal size type (10 point, I believe) in the dialog boxes. I can more or less read this with by non 20/20 eyes. The new 3.5.0 installer uses a smaller type (8? 7? point), which for even more people will mean using a magnifier. Please revert this anti-accessibility change. Instead, increase to 12 point if possible. I noticed that the Python logo picture is also shrunken by about 20%. I checked side-by-side with the 3.4.3 box, so all system settings were the same for both. |

Thanks for pointing this out. I'll take a look before 3.5.1. |

Actually, what DPI setting are you using? With new UI, it's possible that we're not scaling the same way as before. |
