How do I increase iMessage font size higher than highest setting?

Increase iMessage font size higher than highest setting

Ok here is the deal, at work I'm have a Mac Mini and a 49 inch tv to have as an imessage box for people to see alert, kind of like a text paging system that can go to peoples phones. But they can go all around the office and see tv's with the messages. The problem is the text is just to darn small. I tried increasing the font size to the max size via Messages-->Preferences-->Text Size, that helps but its still too small. Can I change the font to be even bigger? (Other than changing the res to 720p) Not afraid to do some terminal work.

I'm not sure. In the meantime, can you change the screen resolution to make it easier to read?

Welcome to iMore! Unfortunately you cannot increase the font size larger than the largest possible setting. Perhaps there's a jailbreak solution, but I am not very well versed in jailbreaking.

Welcome to iMore!

I know you said "besides changing the resolution" but unfortunately that may be the only way you can get what you need. If you find an alternative, let us know!
