"[SOLVED] Change icon (TEXT) dpi or size"

(Could probably be related to OS 8 as well anyway)
I've been using Zorin OS 9 rc for a few days and really liking it, i have one question:
Does anyone know if there is a setting or a tool i can install or how to change the icon (TEXT) dpi or size, the text seems thick to me. like it is almost "bold" So i can make it thinner? Or where there is a setting to change and configure this?
I think the icon text dpi setting is what i am looking for?
I figured out how to make the desktop icons smaller, now if i can just get the Icon text thinner or smaller it would be awesome!
I installed ubuntu-tweak but there doesn't seem to be a setting in there anywhere that i could find for icon text dpi.
Other than that and the few things I've posted Zorin OS 9 is going to be Sawwweeeet! ( i will definitely buy the upraded Edition when it is released.
Thanks,
Tommy

Hi and welcome!

If you have not got dConf Editor showng in System Tools | Preferences you will need to install 'dconf-tools':

Open a terminal (Menu | Accessories | Terminal) and enter:

Code:

sudo apt-get install dconf-tools

Then it should show up where I indicated earlier in this post - open dconf-editor and search (there is no search function as such - you will have to 'expand' the little arrow heads on the far left to expand each heading - you need to look for desktop then look at settings in there - it is scaled as 1.0 - you need to enter your own scale and see what happens there. At work so can't direct you precisely to where you need to be!

Thanks Swarfendor437 it worked! You are the pro!
After searching in the dConf Editor (which i think was already installed) as you described, it took a while to find it, its under:
org - gnome - desktop - interface - text-scaling-factor
Like you said its default is 1.0, I changed it to 0.85 and now it looks correct to me.
Thank you so much, i am slowly tweaking everything to my preference and its looking sharp, if i can figure out how to post a screenshot i will.
