Default Change Chart Data Lables size

There is no direct way to change the size of the labels. You can change the
font size, and to make labels wider (to try to prevent wrapping onto extra
lines) you can make the overall chart wider (the chart area) without
changing the size of the pie.

An alternative would be a horizontal bar chart, using the labels as axis
tick labels on the vertical axis.
