    Help with font size

    my resolution is 1920x1080 which makes the letters really tiny. however if i change the resolution then the whole screen is blurry. is there such an option to change the font only? my IT couldn't help me

    Have you tried turning on ClearType? It makes fonts looks sharp and crisp.

    haha.. the point being that things won't look fuzzy anymore when you reduce the screen resolution. You can easy increase the font size in the browser if that's what you're looking for.

    Go to Control Panel under Display settings and look for something that says Appearance. its a tab and it should help you with font size.

    Do you have a mouse wheel?

    If so, try holding down the Control button (CTRL) and rolling the mouse wheel up and down. That should adjust the size of fonts.

    what bugs me the most is the software that I use at work. the letters are so tiny that I can hardly see them.
