Go to Display Propertys -> Appearance Tab and change the font size to what you perfer.\n\nSome other text cannot be changed.

well the best way is to either uninstall some programs u dont use, or go to www.download.com to find a free font maker tht uses a small amount of space

Try TOOLS-->INTERNET OPTIONS-->ACCESSIBILITY\n\nIf the "ignore font sizes" box is checked, uncheck it.

You haven't told us what type of monitor you're using, or your OS.\n\nI'm a firm believer in beginning with the simplest adjustments and working up from there.\n\nSo, if you're using Windows XP,  then I suggest trying Microsoft's Clear Type:\n\nTo enable Clear Type:\nRight click on a blank area of the Desktop and choose "Properties";\nClick on the Appearance Tab; Click "Effects";\nCheck the box: "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts"\nThen in the drop down box select: "Clear Type"\nThen Click "OK"\n\n(If you prefer, Microsoft can do it for you:)\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/typography/cleartype/tuner/Step1.aspx\n\nEven if you're using a CRT monitor there should be some improvement. \n\nIf that doesn't help then you may need to change the resolution.\nAgain, you'll find that by by right clicking on your Desktop/Properties/Settings and adjust the slider to the best setting for your monitor or,  try using the adjustment controls on the monitor itself.

In a blank area of your desktop, right click one time and then click on "Properties". Then click on the "Settings" tab. You'll immediately see the area to change the resolution. It should be set on 1024X768 or higher. This will change the size of everything on your screen. Just remember, the smaller the text, icons, etc., the better the color quality you'll have. In that same general area, you'll see "color quality." I have mine set on "Highest-32Bit" and the color is awesome. With that setting, you'll have the ability to see 10.8 million color combinations. Be sure to click on "Apply" or "Ok" when you're finished so that it will save the new settings for you. Hope this helps. Larry RadioShack 01-9590

Simply use photoshop (paint might work).\n\nLook in your preferences on your computer for what screen resolution you are using.\n\nThere is 800x600, 1024x768, etc. Then just create the image and make it that size.

Simple, change your screen resolution.  I'm betting that your resolution settings are 800x600; the vast majority of people creating websites on the internet are gearing their sites for 1024x768 resolution or higher.  So just right-click on your desktop, select Properties.  Click on the Settings tab, set your screen resolution to 1024x768 and click Apply; your computer will test the new setting and give you 15 seconds to accept before it reverts to the old setting.  If it looks good, accept; if it still doesn't show the entire page, go back and select a higher resolution setting.  Be forewarned, your text will shrink as you expand resolution, so you'll want to find a happy "medium" that you're comfortable with.  Enjoy!!

right click on your dektop, goto properties>settings..find "screen area" and move the slider, 800x600 is standard..(1024x768 is a bit smaller)then hit apply>ok\n\nyour computer may restart, Windows saves settings when it restarts so you may want to restart before doing anything else.\nthis MAY work for you, it did for me

With Internet Explorer, go to VIEW and pick TEXT SIZE.   If it is set to MEDIUM, you can increase it a but more by picking Larger or Largest.   If it is set to TOO large, you will see some poorly designed websites that will show the text overlapping each other. \n\nIf it is still too small, the RIGHT CLICK on the desktop and pick PROPERTIES.   Go to the Settings section and move the resolution slider toward 800 X 600.  \n\nGood luck
