I am using gnome tweak tools on my system which is Ubuntu 12.04 with a few users set. I want to change the text scaling factor for all the user accounts.
If I use gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 0.7
does the job fine but only for the user that is issuing the command. The rest of the users retain their settings which I don't want.
I want to do this from CLI since I am trying to incorporate this later to puppet.

Change defaults by editing the original schemas
Change default value in Glib schema

Compile schemas
Changing defaults by creating an override file
Otherwise, because you want an easy way for
puppet
.You can create a dconf override file:
Append override keys & values to it, example:
Compile schemas
The new users and the users uses default (They never changed value or they have reset it) will get the new value effective.
Force all users to use defaults using a lock file
If you want to force users to use default value (their customized value has no effect), add a dconf lock:
Add new lock file or change an existing one at:
Append this line to it:
