Now if you want to set a minimum text size or a maximum text size, you may add a code into theme function. After adding the code it will look like:

The necessary code which is to be added into functions.php:-

add_filter('widget_tag_cloud_args','set_number_tags');
function set_number_tags($args) {
$args = array('smallest'    => 8, 'largest'    => 16);
return $args;
}
