UI text too small

Is there a way to make the text in the UI larger?The default size is too small and strains the eyes.

but doesn't that make it system wide ??? not just for aperture ???
it was intended as a tool to use by those that are legally blind to zoom any part of the os, we use it every day as a teaching/demoing tool.
you can also zoom into a photo or video without creating artifacts/pixelation which the normal zoom tool does on many apps
i suppose you could just change it back and forth ...
apple option 8 -- toggles it on and off, or you can use one "Butler" hot key for it http://www.manytricks.com/butler/

Qosmio X500 - Texts too small in program

Hi, I downloaded McAfee internet security on my Qosmio X500 11-G.
The program is working without any problems however the items are too small to read in the program.
How can I make them larger? I made the screen view to 150 % but still no way.

Hello
Do you have the problem since McAfee installation or earlier?
Probably removing McAfee would help and install another AntiVirus like AntiVir but its strange that McAfee changes the text size
Is it a known issue of McAfee? Did you contact the support already?

I have troubles with fonts, they are incorrect. I tried Firefox a year ago and I try it now and I see no difference. Some text is too big, some text too small.

Main text is OK, but the most of links are too small & the most of messages in different forums has different size . Many sites are unreadable.

Here some screenshots

Need Quick Help with Unordered List in Table (text too small)

Hi,
I have a table with 2 unordered lists and the font size is smaller than what I need.
I'm using CSS and have checked all of my font sizes and I have all of what I consider my normal text set to 12.
When my client views the page on his browser, the unordered lists appears to be about a size 8. I checked on my cell phone and I see what he's talking about.
I set the <ul> and <li> to font size 12, but the problem still exists.
It's almost like the table is scaling the text down.
I worked all night trying to figure out what I've done wrong (newbie ) and I can't fix it and my client is waiting!
Here's the page: http://www.precisioncleaning.com/expert_witness_services.html
Please help!
Thanks,
Kathy

I tried adding a new CSS rule to the table font, but it didn't work.
I also edited the <tr> and <td> but still didn't work.
I think something higher up is messing the table up. I don't know anything about specificity or how to see who has the power to overwrite the table.
Do you?

Photoshop CC icons and text are too small: how to adjust so they're readable? [was: Joanne]

I have just downloaded Creative Cloud on a new computer. The new photoshop icons and text are too small for me to see or work with. I cannot seem to adjust this so its "useable"

Hey Bob,
Ive put feature requests for this in before and I know many others have as well. Is there any way to see if Adobe is actually working on this? I dont really consider this a feature request, it should be standard with the software. A feature request would be something like creative cloud libraries, not the ability to make font sizes and icons bigger.

Default text size in Compressor is too small for normal human eye

Is there any way to change the text size in Compressor 4 in the windows? I can't find any.
The normal default text size is way too small for any normal human being eye to read clearly.
Please, have mercy on us, whoever designed the tiny fonts! Not fair to the rest of us . . .

Well, guess we folk with not-too-good vision will simply have to keep on trucking the best we can, eh? We can't enlarge text, so as a result we can't use software like Compressor like the rest of the population. Sad to say, especially with a company like Apple . . .
Yeah, well I gave the Apple Compressor Team my feedback, just like I've done the last 3 months with other things, then of course the feedback from us all melts into the either, and we never really know if anyone reads it, like they say. Me thinks not. This is the only feedback I'll ever get, I'm afraid:

Some text in pdf is too small

We received a pdf file that has been scanned from image files. The document is 23 x 30 inches. When I print to letter size paper most of the text is fine however some of the text is too small to read. Is there a way to make the text size larger for these few sentences?

Select it with the touchup text tool, right click, choose"properties>text".

Size of text is too small for pdf when printed

When I finished filling in the pdf - the text is too small when I printed out the form.

How did you fill that form: using Adobe Reader?
When printing, did you check the Page Sizing & Handling options on the Print panel?

How can I get text printed out larger? It prints too small to read.

I have an hp psc 1610 all-in-one printer. When I print articles from the internet the text is too small. The options to change size only seem to affect the screen size, not the printer size. It prints fine in my word processor, etc.

File > Page Setup > '''Scale''' <br />
100% or Shrink to Fit is usually the best.

Help text unreadable (fonts too small)

SQL Developer v.1.0 patched
RHEL4 AS Nahant Update 3 Linux
Sun jdk1.5.0_06
Help text font in SQL Developer is too small and almost unreadable, specially monotype font used to describe SQL queries.
Help text in JDeveloper is much better.
How to increase font size in SQL Developer Help text?

Although this only partially addresses the problem, you can increase the help text font size by pressing the + (plus) key in your numeric keypad (in both SQL Developer and JDeveloper). The following (or similar wording) will be added to the "Using the Help" topic in the help and the User's Guide in a future release of SQL Developer:
"To increase the size of the font in the help topic viewer, press the + (plus) key in the numeric keypad part of your keyboard when the viewer has focus. To decrease the size of the font, press the - (minus) key in the numeric keypad. This setting is preserved only for the duration of the current help pane or window; therefore, you may want to keep the help pane open after setting the help text font to your preferred size."

Why are pop-up windows too small, text is being cut off. Problem is occurring with webkinz

When I go to webkinz, the pop-up windows are too small to display all the information in the box. Text is being cut off. It works fine with Explorer. This has not always been a problem-- but is giving problems in the lat month. It occurs when you sign in, not noticeable on opening home page.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: <b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

Firefox toolbar text size & icons too small

Hello Firefox Help:
I have Windows 7 Home Premium with Firefox 3.6.13.
The icons and text is far too small in my toolbar. I used the add-on "Theme Font & Size Changer" and it helped with the text. However, all of icons are too small.
I recall this being a problem with Windows XP Media Center 2005. Is this a "bug" with Firefox and Windows 7?
How do I change the size of the icons?
Thanks, k

Increase the String pref layout.css.devPixelsPerPx from 1.0 to 2.0 in 0.1 steps to see what works best.<br />
In current Firefox versions this pref is a String value parsed to a float and allows to fine tune the dimensions of all elements (user interface and web pages) more precisely.
See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/about%3Aconfig
If the content on websites needs to be adjusted after changing prefs then you can look at NoSquint or Default FullZoom Level.

Icons and toolbar text is way too small and hard to read (kind of fuzzy)

The toolbars (menu bars) at the top of the screen have letters and icons and symbols that are way too small to read. Also the background color options are limited. Light black on grey is hard to read. I have tried customizing all that I can. There used to be a thing in control panel called display, and we could pick all sorts of fonts and colors for all those toolbar strips. Where did that go? I am VERY FRUSTRATED!!

I've tried those, and have just decided to go back to 3.6. Firefox just seems to have too much input lately trying to tweak and adjust. Meanwhile, the later versions just end up looking worse and worse with each iteration. Icons too small, monochromatic tool bar, making icons harder to distinguish, and, worst of all, frequent crashes.
Perhaps some of these problems are because I'm using XP, but I've noticed many if not all of the appearance deficiencies with my laptop running Win7. Probably the most annoying thing about later versions, though, is the inability to set memory time for history. This alone is a deal breaker for me, and ultimately, as IE has gotten better, I may just go back there.

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== From the beginning

Some add-ons:
Default FullZoom: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965 (I use this one)
