If you want to change any aspect of the floating damage/healing text other than which font it uses, you have to use an addon to replace the whole system, and you can't have the numbers appear over the relevant units in the game world.
Not tested, but this should work:
Code:
local text = TargetFrame:CreateFontString(nil, "OVERLAY", "NumberFontNormalHuge")
text:SetPoint("CENTER", TargetFrame, "TOPLEFT", 73, -42)
text:Hide()
CombatFeedback_Initialize(self, text, 30)
local f = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, TargetFrame)
f:RegisterUnitEvent("UNIT_COMBAT", "target")
f:SetScript("OnEvent", function(self, event, unit, ...)
CombatFeedback_OnCombatEvent(TargetFrame, ...)
end)
f:SetScript("OnUpdate", function(self, elapsed)
CombatFeedback_OnUpdate(TargetFrame, elapsed)
end)
If you need help turning the above code into an addon, copy and paste it into this page:

The script didn't work. It breaks my other scripts.
