The spell adjustment should do this automatically, since the "Enlarge Person" increases the size of all armour and weapons worn (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-sp...enlarge-person).

You can add the spell adjustment on the "Adjust" tab of your character which will increase the damage of your weapons automatically.

Enlarge Person affects armor/weapon as normal for 3.5 and Pathfinder rules (ie they increase with the character). You are not the hulk that when gets bigger destroys his armor. ALL his gear increases in size to LARGE hence why so many warrior types like the spell as weapon damage increases. So the confusion is where you are saying that weapons/armor do NOT increase in size. Unless this is a specific house rule your group has.

In such a case sense HL already increases the size of armor when Enlarge Person is cast I would simply add your new Armor Item Power as text only. You can add this in the editor creating a new Item Power on the "Equipment->Item Power" tab in the editor.

Well again in Pathfinder the gear "does" change as change shape is a Polymorph affect. And the general rule for Polymorph is that all equipment changes size.

If you look at the stat blocks for a Wearbear you will see that the Battleaxe is doing medium damage of 1d8 and when transformed it does 2d6 for a Large Creature.

So what I said still stands true. You are more than happy to make up a houserule to go against the above but if you use the Lycanthrope template in Hero Lab it will auto change the size of your gear. So something to keep in mind about how HL will handle situations.

I'm not sure if it'll resolve things with lycanthrope change shape stuff, but you can look forward to some improvements to how polymorph interacts with gear next release.

Well that is strange as I thought it had been fixed long ago. So that we call a "bug". I put in a ticket for it so that it is tracked and eventually fixed.

So my bad about that as it came up in a post back in 2014. That is when I learned about the change in Polymorph for Pathfinder.
