Transcription font size

I was able to change the size of the text in the chat window and subtitles but I don't see a way to increase the size of the transcription text during a Zoom meeting.  Is there a way to do that from within Zoom?

Adjusting that font will increase the size of the transcription text when you are in an active meeting. Please see URL: https://explore.zoom.us/en/accessibility/. Halfway down, explains it in more detail.

Hello CSWatkins - Yes, if you go to your Zoom Settings and select Accessibility, you can change the size of the font.

That changes the size of the subtitles.  I'm asking about the transcription in the transcription window.  Changing the font size of the subtitle didn't affect the size of the transcription text.

Adjusting caption size does not change font size in Transcription window.  The link you list has no guidance related to font size adjustment of text in the Transcription window.

I really appreciate being able to use closed captioning and transcription in Zoom Meetings but rlvitalo is right, we cannot adjust the font size of the Transcription window whether it's docked or in its own window.  It would be very helpful to those who have issues with their vision to be able to adjust the font size and type in the Transcription window.

Can this be removed as an accepted solution? It does not answer the question regarding transcription.

I also thought you could pop out the Chat transcription window and send that to another screen; it increases the size of the text. I will look further into this.

I notice that when I use a two-finger trackpad enlarge in the transcript window, it only enlarges the one line of the transcript currently under the mouse pointer. Could this behavior be altered to enlarge all of the text in the transcript window?
