The font is too small to read on 32" hdtv. can I do anything about it?

For the ATV menues, can I change the amount of information on the screen at one time? Movie titles are too hard to read.... Maybe use an iPad (first gen) app to see the same display on the iPad as is on the hdtv? Any other ideas?
thanks

yeah you can use the remote app on other ios devices and place the ios device in question as close to your eyes as you see fit

The only way to increase the fonts on your desktop would be system wide by going down a notch on the resolution. Some people won't do it because it increases the pixel size so the fonts won't be quite as sharp; I decided I'd rather have that than having to squint continuously. Go to System Preferences > Displays > Scaled > this will give you all resolution options available. No harm in trying - just check the default (top) choice again if you don't like any of the others.
It's a b*&^ch getting old . I still use the screen zoom instead of decreasing resolution, but maybe soon ...

Is there a way to increase the size of the tool windows/fonts in InDesign. I am having trouble seeing the info (the font is too small)

Not possible. You'll need to go to your operating system and choose a screen resolution that displays the screen with larger pixels.
Or get a new prescription for your glasses (seriously!)

The font is too small

The entered font size in mm is not true. The font is too small. Am I doing something wrong?

Thomas,
If you need to have the font appearance at a specific size while maintaining fuilly editable Live Type, you may:
1) Tick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds;
2) Select the Type and Effect>Path>Outline Object;
3) Then set the desired size in the Transform palette.
That will reduce the Bounding Box to the actual bounds of the letters, and keep the Type editable.
Remember to untick Edit>Preferences>General>Use Preview Bounds before you get a reverse issue.

I have a 22 inch monitor set at 150% but since I installed Firefox, the font is too small and the screen is too small. Cannot make font or screen larger. I can do Control++ each time I enter a page but don't want that to be my solution.

In control panel/display, I had my display set at 150% and at 1680 X 1050 resolution. This filled my 22 inch screen with the page content. Now that I have installed Firefox, the font is too small and the content is centered in the screen leaving about3" per side of blank space. I want to fill the screen and make everything larger. Haven't found a way to do that. Firefox tells me in my control panel/display window that by setting my display at 150%, "some items may not fit in your screen if you choose this setting while your display is set to this resolution. It worked fine with Explorer.

The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

Elements 13 editor screen font, icons too small to read on Surface Pro 3

I thought this product was designed for high resolution screens. The Experimental sttings in regular Photoshop work fine. Am I missing a setting that is too small to read?
Thank you

Hi William,
Elements 13.1 provides manual control for settings 200% scaling for HiDPI:
Choose 200% and see if it resolves your issue.
Choose Help>Updates... to install the PSE13.1 update.
Thanks,

Apple Mail (Mavericks), Viewing size of list is too small.how do you increase the size of the email message list. The font is too small, I can hardly read them.

In Apple Mail, using Mavericks, how do you increase the size of the email message list that displays on the left side of the screen?
The font size is so small.
Thanks.

Thank you for responding. After investigating and checking further, it was clear that only one of your suggestions changes the font size of the list of emails, also called the In-box. And that is the display resolution.
However, changing the display resolution affects the dots per inch of everything, everywhere and makes it larger.
Given the high end fee Apple charges for their products, and the generally well developed software they provide, it is hard to imagine they have not corrected this obvious slight of effort on the inbox text. At times Apple's "one-size-fits-all" and "it's our way or no way" mentality astounds me and makes me want to run back to Microsoft.
Evidently this is a well known mistake, which has yet to receive any attention.
Again, thank you for your effort and assistance on my behalf.

Print dialog font is too small: Acrobat Reader on Linux

I'm running Acrobat Reader version 7.0.5 on CentOS 4.5 (RedHat Enterprise
4.5) and find that the fonts used on the Print dialog are too small.
They are much smaller than the fonts used on labels and other controls
in the rest of the application, and are very difficult to read. By
comparison, they seem to be about 1/2 the size of the font used by the
Reader menu bar (File, Edit, View, ...).
I've gone through the Edit -> Preferences, but don't see anything which
will change the size of the fonts used on this dialog.
Is there a configuration file or some other way that I can increase the
size of these fonts?
Thanks,

the issue occurs on systems running debian-etch, debian-etch'n-half,
debian-lenny, and gentoo with xdm as display manager and fvwm as
window manager. the x-server runs with the '-dpi 75' option regardless of
the screen's physical dimensions. the screen's resolution is 1600x1200.
for me it looks like acroread is creating it's dialog boxes independently
from gtk-settings in $HOME/.gtkrc-2.0 (apart from the OK/Cancel buttons of
the printing dialog) and while doing so, it makes wrong assumptions about
the font-size by using the dpi setting of the screen to calulate the physical
dimention of the screen. if the x-server is running with '-dpi 100' the
dialog fonts are considerably bigger, but still differs from the settings
in $HOME/.gtkrc-2.0. for example when you make setting of
        style "default"
                font_name = "Verdana 24"
        class "*" style "default"
then you don't get neither Verdana nor 24pt fonts in the whole acroread
gui except for the menubar and the OK/Cancel buttons of the printing
dialog, while any other gtk-program like firefox, thunderbird, and others
apprear completely in Verdana 24pt -- which is of course far too big, but
illustrated the issue very clearly.
screenshots (with gtk-fonts set to Verdana 24pt and Tahoma 11pt) are
inserted below. (as you can see, the printing dialog and advanced printing
dialog even use different fonts.)
thank you very much for the very quick reply.

The page does not fit the screen and the fonts are too small. I cant seem to change any of the settings

I cant seem to get any page to fit entirely on hte screen. I also cant seem to change the font which is too small. I tried making changes in the options section, but nothing happens.

CTRL+0 (<--that is a zero) will reset your zoom level on affected pages. Firefox remembers the zoom level you last used on a page.

Hi,
Which browser are you using ? You can "make" the output bigger using something like this (Firefox)

HT5557 I downloaded a book to my Mac and would like to read it there due to the larger screen. The book was transferred to my iPhone which is too small to read comfortably. How can I read on the Mac?

How do I read books on my Mac? I downloaded several books to my Mac but they went to my iPhone whose screen is not big enough to see more than a few lines.

Thanks. Doesn't make much sense. Just got done reading my first and last book on the iPhone. I think the font/glare changed my prescription. Guess I'll be going back to paper.

Font size too small to read in safe/boot mode

I'm posting for a friend who has vision issues. He's attempting to do the clean installation on his 2012 MBP with Mavericks. Basically he's having some trouble reading small font size in the Startup environment with the bootable Mavericks (and likely next steps once the installation is completed). The shortcut command for Zoom in is disabled (which Accessibility or certain shortcut commands obviously is/are disabled in this environment) and can't find a way to change the screen resolution in order to enlarge the size of the screen and font size. Any suggestion to remedy this case?

Here are a couple of workarounds until Apple finally fixes iCal.
You can go to print, choose medium or big, then preview. Then click the middle orange button on the original iCal page to make it disappear. Print Preview will remain, and for me "Big" in preview produces a perfect, visible size. AND YES YOU CAN EDIT IT... but only in Preview. This is now a Preview document, so you can go to tools, annotate (or do the keyboard shortcut), click the annotate icon at the bottom and add items to the Preview Calendar. They won't go into iCal software, of course, but for reminders for the current month they'll work fine.
This works especially well if you have an extra monitor, set the screen size to large, and pull iCal or your Preview over to it and leave it there. I leave Mail and iCal Preview up on the extra monitor.

My e-mail font is too small to read. how do I get it back to legible size? All other screens are ok.

I must have accidentally clicked the mouse somewhere on the toolbar. All of a sudden , the whole page was in minute print.

Reset the zoom for that page.

Hello, I have my PC connected to my HDTV and when viewing websites on firefox, the websites are too small to read. What can I do to fix this. I have already tried dling the No Squint add-on, but some websites are still distorted. Thanks for you help

My PC specs:
Intel Core 2 Quad 2.5GHz
Nvidia 9800GT video card
Seagate 600gb hardrive
The TV is a Philips 720p (Not exactly sure what model it is)

You can increase the String pref layout.css.devPixelsPerPx from 1.0 to 2.0 in 0.1 steps to see what works best.
In Firefox 3.6 and later this pref is a String value parsed to a float and allows to fine tune the dimensions of all elements more precisely.
