I find the font default size too small how do I adjust it to display larger on screen?

How do I alter the display on my macbook pro so that the font size isnt so small. On a pc I would ajust the display properties to do this but I cant find an optio for this on my new macbook pro (retina display)

Go to System Preferences>Displays and set the 'scaled' option to whatever suits you best. You won't have 'Retina' quality, but you can enlarge what you're viewing.
Good luck,
Clinton

  • The default print size on Pages is too small - how can I program it to be larger?

    The default type size in Pages is too small - can I permanently size is larger? Thank you.

    Hi Ellis,
    When you say the default font size, is this set by the template you use for a new document? If so, create your own. Open a blank template, set the font size, and Save as Template... with a new name.
    In Pages > Preferences > General > For new Documents > Use Template.
    Choose your template. When you open Pages, it will open that template.
    File > New will also open that template.
    The font of a document from someone else has been set by the author of that document. You will have to change it.
    Also, have a look at View > Zoom. Perhaps the font is not small, but your view of the page is small.
    Regards,

  • How do I change the font on this new 27" IMac I have just bought for 2200.00 and can't read as the font is far too small.I have contact lens and but have to strain with face close to the screen to see the words. What a major rip off disappointment ,

    I have spent hours trolling through help lines to change the font from minature text  which I cannot see on my new 27" screen. Why does something so simple have to be so complicated ???this computer is supposed to be the be all to end all..just setting it up with printer , router etc has been a nightmare as the print is so small I need to have my eyes 2 inches from the screen to read anything ..What have they done ?

    Not an ideal solution, but some users change the setting in: System Preferences>Displays, select the Scaled button and choose another resolution.
    If you are within 14 days of purchased you can return the computer for a refund if you dislike it that much as Apple do have a good returns policy (so long as you purchased from Apple and not a reseller).

  • Please help! How can I change the font / text size for the checkout page? I asked Support and they sent me here- thanks in advance for your response.

    Hello everyone! I build an e-commerce shopping cart via BC and integrated it with a muse website as seen at sarahcosmetics .com
    Everything is great, but my clients clients are complaining they cannot see the text well once they're in the checkout page.
    I was able to enlarge the font in my Registration-Buy form in the Online Shop Layouts / Module Templates under the Site Manager. This helped enlarge the font size in the checkout form however my issue arrises on the next page when they have to enter their details like CC information name, address etc. the font is way too small and I'm not sure where to access the tools to enlarge that.
    If you could PLEASE help I would greatly appreciate it. I told my client I would handle it asap and I have no idea how to fix this.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    This isn't possible yet in the current version of Fennec, but we are working on it. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590817 for details.

  • Font is shown very small when using IE Tab and Windows Display is selected to show larger fonts

    I'm on Windows 7 - 64 bit and I set my Windows display to show larger fonts (from Control Panel, Display, then choose Larger Fonts). Now all pages show bigger fonts, except when I use IE Tab.
    I use IE Tab so that I can open my Microsoft Dynamics CRM website on Firefox; however the fonts look way too small; it is even smaller than when the Display Setting was set to use normal size fonts.
    Tried to change to use smaller resolution, it didn't work. Zooming-in is very slow on Firefox, so it is not an option for working on the webpage. Tried changing the default fonts on Firefox, however the page is still always opened with the very small fonts.
    From Firefox I also unchecked the "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above" (from Tools, Options, Content, Advanced), but it still doesn't fix it.
    Played around with my Firefox IE Tab setting, but no luck.
    I downgraded my Firefox to version 3.5.9 to use the older IE tab, but still not fixed yet.
    Is there a solution for this? Thanks in advanced for your help,
    -Elisabeth

    Hi...
    Thanks for asking....
    As I put in my post before, I include template0 in my template1, as seen in template1 (AHM001):
    <af:pageTemplateDef var="attrs">
    *<af:pageTemplate viewId="/template/AHM000.jspx">*
    I use AHM000 inside AHM001. I use this approach to build many template based on one basic design.
    Actually, I don't think the problem is in page template usage because as I submitted paralel to Metalink, I've already not called template0 in template1 but I copy template0's contents to template1.
    Unfortunately, page designer show small view and below error messages still occured.

    Hi the fnt size in the menu bar is too small (unreadable). How can I increase the font size. I have a new Samsung PC with high resolution screen.

    You must mean Photoshop Elements 11, not Photoshop.
    There is no ability to change the size of the menu font in PSE 11.
    note to mod:
    Please move to the Photoshop Elements forum.

  • Size of font on hardware (too small)

    Hi,
      A general comment for the Linksys/Cisco design team, not sure where else to post this. I have several Linksys/Cisco products including the Linksys WTR54G travel router and the Linksys SPA2102 ATA. I find the printing on the hardware too small to read, especially in low light situations. I measured the font size on the ATA and the characters on the labels for the plug-in sockets is 1 mm high (that's like 1/8"). These are the words "Internet", "Ethernet", "Line 1", Line 2", "power", etc. On the travel router, the same thing, character size too small. There seems to be room to use much larger character sizes. If someone can pass this onto the team that designs the graphics on the hardware, that would be great.
    Thanks. 

    Hi Sastry,
    I tried what you said - I clicked the Font Button on Group Labels (which on my chart is on the Y axis) - it contains the names of the Reporting groups - I was able to make the names of the reporting groups (Sugery, Medical, etc.) larger than the default (which seems to be about 12) and then I thought, the thing that I an asking about - what is the label on the x axis (numbers generated by Crystal from 6-32 in the case of my graph) I should be able to change by going into the Data Label Font dialog box.
    But I can't get these numbers to change size (which is what the user wants). They are still a tiny font (4 I think) no matter what I do.
    Any more ideas?
    Thanks,
    Dick

    Just downloaded ios7 on my iPad2. Hate that I cannot see the items in my calendar. The letters are way too small and are grey in color. I need the fonts to be dark and very defined...I have health issues-poor vision.

    Settings>General>Accessibility>Increase Contrast
    Settings>General>Accessibility>Bold Text
    are some settings that may help.
    There are other settings there ...they may not be to your liking but try them all anyways.
    But that's about all you can do for now...except to voice your opinion to Apple here:

  • I am not satisfied with the font and size of print that I set. How do I change it?

    When I first set up Firefox on my desktop, I set the print size and font. I have found that it is too large and I really would like to change the font, also. I can't find a spot to do that. I might be looking right at it but don't realize it. Could you help me?

    I can't remember what I did when I set the font and size of articles that I printed from the pages on Firefox. I just know that I tried something a few months ago and have not been happy with the settings that I made. I can't find anywhere to change those settings and have tried so many things but they do not change the look of the pages I print when I click print. I tried to see if I could change the settings but all it does is change portrait or landscape and margins...nothing about fonts or sizes. I am getting so frustrated even though I love Firefox.

  • HT1750 The serial #  is way too small to read!!!!  Make it BIGGER!

    The serial #  is way too small to read!!!!  Make it BIGGER!

    You are talking to users like yourself, not Apple. Try here to talk to Apple. In the meantime, if you select About This Mac in the Apple menu and then select More Info, you'll find the serial number there too. And if that is too small you can copy it just as if you were using a word processor and then paste it into a text editor and make the font bigger.

  • How can I perform the conversion of pdf files in Cyrillic script to Word files in Cyrillic script. The pdf file is too small for me to read right now. Julyan Watts

    How can I perform the conversion of .pdf files in Cyrillic script to Word files in Cyrillic script. The .pdf file is too small for me to read without a magnifying glass, and the document is more than one thousand pages.

    This answer was not helpful. First of all, I could not find "tech specs"
    anywhere on the Acrobat 11 homepage. And secondly I purchased this software
    for the specific purpose of converting .pdf files to Word. It was only
    after I had completed the purchase that I learnt that Acrobat does not
    permit the conversion of .pdf files in Cyrillic to Word files  in Cyrillic.
    I feel that Acrobat should have provided this crucial information before I
    allowed my credit card to be debited. That is why I  am now asking for my
    money back. But thanks for your attempt to solve my problem, even if it was
    not successful.

  • Vista & Outlook 2007: Sync with second XP & Outlook 2003 - The passed buffer is too small for the reply data

    Dear Community,
    I'm synchronising my T3 with two PCs. One with Vista & Outlook 2007 and the other with XP & Outlook 2003. Both with the latest conduit & Hotsync Manager versions installed for each OS based on the availability on the Palm Website. 
    My problem is that when I synchronise the T3 with either PC and then try to sync it with the other I'm receiving the following error message for the Calendar:
    Outlook Calendar
    The passed buffer is too small for the reply data.
    OLERR:0D-0008
    OLERR:0D-0004
    OLERR:0D-0001
    - Slow Sync
    Outlook Calendar synchronization failed
     The second time the sync is successful but takes a long time and the actual problem is that it creates duplicates for records previously changed on either PC - but with a sync in between those changes, i.e. no conflict in the sense that the same record was changed in both environments since the last sync. I have configured the conflict handling to establish a hierarchy PC1-T3-PC2 but try to avoid them by synchronising as often as possible.
    Has anyone come across that problem or any ideas? Can you somehow adjust the buffer size for the sync? I have been using Lotus Organiser & then the various Outlook versions for a number of years.
    Thank you

    As they say on TV, "Doh"!!!
    I figured out the problem. I started the Sync tool, selected "Settings", then "Mcrosoft Outlook" tab and then "Select Folders" button. I browsed to the proper folders in Outlook (Calendar, Tasks, etc). Select OK enough times and retried the sync.
    It worked.

  • Need help to find the "leading point size"

    Hi,
    I need help to find the "leading point size".
    Any para style leading is more than 2 points of my font size, I need the alert message "Its more than 2 points for your font size". For instance my para font size is 10 here my leading should be 12 points rather than its 14 points, I need the alert message.
    Is this possible by script?

    Hi Hasvi,
    Try this.
    var doc = app.activeDocument;
    var texts = doc.stories.everyItem().textStyleRanges.everyItem().getElements();
    var pstyle = "Following paragraph styles have more leadings:\r\r";
    for(var i=0;i<texts.length;i++)
        var ps = texts[i].pointSize;
        if(texts[i].leading > ps + 2)
            pstyle += texts[i].appliedParagraphStyle.name;
    alert(pstyle)
    If it is correct than mark the answer as correct and don't mark your question as correct answer.
