Change text size in game?

Just wondering if there is a way to change the text size in game.

I just installed a new video card (HD 5770 with latest drivers) and I have been able to put my screen rez up to 1920x1200 with everything turned on. Its 16:10

The text seems a little big.

As you can see at the very top center, the little box with the map name seems to be cut off.

I just want to know if there is some way I can make that text at least a little smaller?

Q. is 16:10 native to your monitor or just an option in FF? if its not go set it to 16.9 and full res.

afaik, that is hard coded into the game, so I don't think that you can change it Gwarsbane...however the issue is a bug b/c it shouldn't mess up like that. So, like Elmo said, squeek or someone would have to fix the sizing for that resolution.
