enterprise architect change sequence diagrams message text size

When I have sequence diagram in enterprise architect and I change the text size marking everything with Crtl + A and the rightclicking and using appearance -> set font and changing the text size it only changes it in the class names. How can I change the text size of the messages so they are readable in a document?

You can change the font for ALL text, by Tools | Options | Diagram | Appearance | Configure Default Element Fonts

I agree with Geert, I don't think it can be done either.

You can make certain changes to a connector label by right-clicking it. These changes include boldness and font color, but not font size or typeface.

The corresponding information is stored as a set of key/value pairs in the PDATA5 column of the t_connector table in the EA database (not the t_diagramlinks table where you'd normally expect visual information to go).

In this string, whose interpretation is not documented in the help file, you'll find BLD=1; etc, but nothing that looks like it refers to font size or typeface. Which means you can't change it by scripting either.

I'm pretty sure you can't. When I face that problem I copy the whole image of the diagram and cut it up in readable pieces before I put it into a document. Yes, manually :/
