Hi,
I really love the special characters in Ckeditor (version 3), however, they are really hard to read as they are small. Is there any way to change the font sizes of the "Choose symbol" dialog, so they are easier to read for the users?
Thanks a lot.

Sorry to bump, but would love to hear any thoughts.
Special characters: Make them more visible?
You can change the size and font of the characters in the pick list by adding css to the page hosting the editor (that is, not to any custom css you may have for the editor). This is what I've used recently:
td a.cke_specialchar { height: 2em; }
a.cke_specialchar span { font: 18px "Times New Roman"; }
The first line increases the box height (it is originally 1.25em) and the second sets the size and face (originally 12px Arial,Helvetica,Tahoma,Verdana,Sans-Serif).
The other two boxes – that show the character being pointed at – are much tougher. The font and its size are written to the style attribute of the html element by the plug-in: there is no class to hang external css on. If you really wanted to change these you'd have to patch the plug-in's JavaScript file.
