    Increase font size
    « on: December 20, 2010, 06:11:13 PM »
    My laptop with windows 7 displays smaller fonts than these aging eyes are happy with. Is there a way to increase the size, across the board, not just on the individual page?

    In Control Panel (available in the right column of the start menu), Choose "Display" The options presented should be the size options (100%, 125%, or 150%).

    You could also right-click on a blank space on your desktop and choose the lowest/last option, Personalization and choose Display as BC have suggested.

    Are you talking about your browser? If so, you can hold down the CTRL key and use the scroll wheel on your mouse to adjust the size or just go into the VIEW option on the browser's menu.
