Puppy Linux / Seamonkey - how to change window font sizes?

I did a frugal install of Puppy on my mom's computer as a backup for her failing Windows installation. It all works great except for one thing: the font on the Seamonkey browser window is TINY, and I can't seem to figure out how to change it. I've changed fonts in two places already and managed to get larger type on both the desktop icons and the actual webpages being browsed, but the type on the browser window itself (where the toolbars live) is way too small for her to read with her poor vision. (Frankly, it's pretty small for me, too!) What the heck am I missing? Where do I go to fix this problem?Puppy Linux / Seamonkey - how to change window font sizes?
THis link should work to change the font size in seamonkey.

I hope you did the puppy install for a backup on a second hard drive and not a partition on the same drive as windows. If you put a backup file on another partition of the same hard drive and the hard drive fails you will also lose the backup files. Windows calls partitions C: D: E: etc, but they are not separate hard drives but different partitions on the same hard drive.

Good luck
