Different font sizes in Konqueror (readable) and KHelpCenter (too small)

SUMMARY
The default font size of help centre is way too small on modern high resolution
displays (at least on my laptop) and even worse: the program does not supply a
way to change the font size, rendering it completely useless for older people
and others who don't have eagle's eyes.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install KDE w/o sophisticated extensive  patches, e.g. simply use FreeBSD
(serious people do that anyway) on a computer with a modern high resolution
display, e.g. a laptop with a 14" HD+ display and a resolution of 1600x900
pixels.
2. Open the Help Centre
3. Get your grandma to read any unix man page, e.g. zpoolconcepts(7)

OBSERVED RESULT
The font size is way too small, and even worse: you can't change it!  Not even
the default keyboard shortcuts work (<CTRL> + <+> and <CTRL> + <->).

EXPECTED RESULT
1. The default font size should match the default font size set via control
centre
2. There should be 
2.1. A menu entry to enlarge and decrease the font size
2.2. A setting for the font size in help centre's settings 
2.3. The default keyboard shortcuts to change the font size should work

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE-Hilfezentrum: 6.0.25121
KDE Frameworks: 6.22.0
Qt: 6.10.1 wird verwendet und gebaut wurde mit 6.10.1
FreeBSD 14.4-RELEASE (Xcb)
Build ABI: x86_64-little_endian-lp64
Kernel: freebsd 14.4-RELEASE

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The manpage module to read UNIX manpages in konqueror (use "man" as protocol,
i.e. type "man:zpoolconcepts" in the address bar) works as expected: the
default font size is correct and the font size is changeable via menu entry and
keyboard shortcuts.
