@EverTed Thanks for the tip.
I stopped using Evernote for a while because of the font size problem, but I found I needed the syncing features and returned. I'm a premium user now and I had hoped this problem had been resolved. Unfortunately no such luck.
Please Evernote, do something for us who already PAID for a good note taking app. I have no real problem with Evernote on my Android phone or my Mac, but the iPad is... A nightmare. I can't see.
@FX Cormontagne The zoom is a possibility, but you have to have the iPad accesibility On. Hopefully it solves the problem for old notes
