How do you make the text in a ComboBox appear larger

No matter what I change the font size or box size to, the size and font don’t seem to change. How can I change it so the text is larger?

$Font = New-Object System.Drawing.Font("Microsoft Sans Serif",16,5,3,1)
$Rights = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox
$Rights.DataBindings.DefaultDataSourceUpdateMode = 0
$Rights.BackColor = [System.Drawing.Color]::FromArgb(255,4,89,170)
$Rights.Font = New-Object System.Drawing.Font("Microsoft Sans Serif",7,0,3,0)
$Rights.ForeColor = [System.Drawing.Color]::FromArgb(255,255,215,0)
$Rights.FormattingEnabled = $True
$System_Drawing_Point = New-Object System.Drawing.Point
$System_Drawing_Point.X = 20
$System_Drawing_Point.Y = 40
$Rights.Location = $System_Drawing_Point
$Rights.Name = "Rights"
$System_Drawing_Size = New-Object System.Drawing.Size
$System_Drawing_Size.Height = 60
$System_Drawing_Size.Width = 500
$Rights.Size = $System_Drawing_Size
$Rights.Items.Add("Default") | Out-Null
$Rights.Text = "Default"
$PathBox.Controls.Add($Rights)

Wait, at the top you’re creating a new System.Drawing.Font object with one size, and then on line 5 you’re assigning a different, much smaller font to the ComboBox you have created. Try replacing line 5 with this:
$Rights.Font = $Font
