how to increase apex 5.0.3 report font size

Question

I have an interactive report retrieving numbers and I want to make these numbers a little bigger.

How can I do that? Is that even a thing in apex?

How can I increase the report overall font size or a specific column font size?

I tried changing the region item size to Large and XLarge but that changed nothing.

I keep finding posts suggesting something like this:

<style type="text/css">
.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td{
    font-size: 18px;
    font-weight: bold;
}
</style>

but I don't know where to put it to apply it to the report/region or column I want to apply that font to.

There are several possibilies to do this. You need to open column properties and find there a Column formatting section. There are following fields:

HTML Expression. Here you can put an HTML code, which will be inserted in a table cell. For example:
```
<div style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold;">#COLUMN_NAME#</div>
```
#COLUMN_NAME# here is a substitution string, it will be replaced with the value of sql column with name COLUMN_NAME. Put the name of your column here. You can even make column formatting dependent on value of another column.
CSS Classes. A name of a CSS class, which is be described in a css file or in page's properties (for example, CSS -> Inline). This class will be applied to the table cell.
CSS Style. Inline css style, will be added directly to the sell. For example, put there
```
font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold;
```

You can use one of these ways or combine them.
