Bug Description
The font size used for the body text of bugs recently increased. It is now jarringly large and feels like reading a large-print book. If I were visually-impaired, I'd increase my font size myself; Launchpad should use something more reasonable. In particular, it is now noticeably bigger than the text used in portlets, which is off-putting.
Few non-trivial bugs fit on my screen as a whole. As a result, one of the things I value in the bug UI is the ability to see a reasonably substantial amount of text in one go so that I don't have to keep scrolling up and down. The new font size means that I generally have to hit Ctrl+- before I can do this. Please consider reverting this change.

I am not sure what font you are using, Arial or something is it?
Anyways mine is not as spaced out, but I agree with Colin that it is unusually large.
I was going through my Firefox view settings when on launchpad today (I did not know that there was an update)
