Increasing font size in applications?

Hello all-
My first post here, so please be gentle

As I age, the default font in most Windows applications seems to get smaller (funny how that happens). While I work in Word 2019 primarily, I suspect what I want to change may well be controlled through the OS. So, is there a setting (registry or otherwise) that would allow me to increase the font size on the Ribbon tabs in Office? I know you can change font settings within Control Panel for Windows in general, but none of these seem to apply to applications. Any help is most appreciated.
Running Windows 10, Build 19042.630

Well, I think I found my answer on the MS Office support site:

"What you can't customize: You can't reduce the size of your ribbon, or the size of the text or the icons on the ribbon. The only way to do this is to change your display resolution, which would change the size of everything on your page. You can't change the color of the ribbon, or its icons, but you can change the color scheme that Office uses throughout."

So, that's that, but I still wonder if perhaps there isn't a registry hack out there somewhere. If anyone know of such, please pass it along. Thanks.

Yes. you are stuck with the ribbon design as decided by MS software engineers in their 20s with excellent eyesight.
