The answer is found from the FAQ, though it doesn’t jump out at you.
Section "3.3 Customizing the Appearance" will refer you to the GTK3 page:
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/GTK3
On that page, section "5 Typefaces" is what you are looking for.
The more direct answer is:
create a file called "gtk-3.0.css" in %APPDATA%\GnuCash if it does not already
exist. (you can type "%APPDATA%\GnuCash" directly in Windows Explorer and it
will take you there)
Add the following code to that file, or modify a similar rule if the file
already exists, to your liking:
* {
font: 14px arial, sans-serif;
}
Adjust the size and font as desired. Save the file,
You will need to restart GnuCash each time you make a change to this rule for
it to take effect.

Adrien
