In the legacy form editor, you can change the size of the Help Text (I think). The current size is too small, especially for my older clients. Is there now (or will there be soon) a way to style the Help Text beyond simply changing its color in the Style panel?

Hi @Ferule,

In the new form editor, it’s currently not possible to change the font size of the Help Text, only the color.  
Confirmed here in HubSpot’s article: [Create and edit forms](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/forms/create-and-edit-forms#style-your-form).  
_You can also customize the font, font-size and colors for your labels, as well as the colors for your help text, placeholders, and error text._

As a workarounf you could potentially add some CSS to your site to change the font size. Not great but might be worth a try.  
Best,  
Jess
