How to change font size of Content Assist (Proposals) in Eclipse?

Is there a plugin to change the Font Size of the Content Assist (Proposals) I don't understand how Eclipse can let you change the font and color of everything except this...

proposals extremely small from a distance

Changing the system font is simply an unacceptable solution. I would have so much gratitude for someone who could develop a quick plugin to make this font size adjustable... or direct me in the direction to accomplish this. My eyes thank you.

Looks like the only way you can do this, is by increasing the IDE font size globally.

Heres' how: Inside the Eclipse.app is a setting for the font size. To make the fonts globally larger edit Eclipse.app » Contents » Eclipse » eclipse.ini and remove the line

-Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts

from the file (if there are multiple, delete them all). Save the file and restart Eclipse.

It worked on Mac, and I think it should work on Windows as well.
