When I use PlotMarkers -> {\[FilledCircle], 40} in ListPlot I get something like this:

enter image description here

How can I increase the font size of those numbers shown in the photo?

  • $\begingroup$ I'm not following. How do you generate that picture to begin with? Can you supply us with the code required to do that? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ It's easy. In ListPlot I plot 3 data set and give each a different color, then I use PlotMarkers -> {\[FilledCircle], 40}. The picture shown is cropped. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ If I'm following you correctly, you can alter the size of the markers by listing them individually, e.g. PlotMarkers -> ({\[FilledCircle], #}&/@{40, 60, 80}). Is this what you're looking for? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ By doing what you have suggested the size of the circles increases too. I want to keep the size of those circles constant and independently increase the size of numbers. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ How are you labeling the points? Is this part of a Legend? $\endgroup$

$\begingroup$ 
ListPlot[List /@ Transpose[{{1, 2, 3}, {1, 2, 3}}], 
 PlotMarkers -> {\[FilledCircle], 40},
 PlotRangePadding -> 1,
 PlotLegends -> PointLegend[Style[#, 40] & /@ {"53ps", "211ps", "739ps"}]]

enter image description here

or, use LabelStyle option of PointLegend:

ListPlot[List /@ Transpose[{{1, 2, 3}, {1, 2, 3}}], 
 PlotMarkers -> {\[FilledCircle], 40},
 PlotRangePadding -> 1,
 PlotLegends -> PointLegend[{"53ps", "211ps", "739ps"}, LabelStyle -> 40]]
(* same picture *)
