The screen view on your computer can be enlarged using settings within the ‘Control Panel’ on your PC. Within the ‘Start’ menu on your computer, find and select the ‘Control Panel’. Within the ‘Control Panel’ look for an icon that is labelled ‘Display’ and double click on it. This will open the ‘Display Properties’ page, within which you should be able to find a ‘Settings’ tab. Select this tab and look for the adjustment bar that is labelled ‘Screen Resolutions’. You will then have the option to move this adjustment bar to change your screen resolutions and made the screen view larger or smaller. If you move the adjustment bar to the right the screen will appear smaller, moving the bar to the left will make the screen view larger. Play around with this bar until you have found a screen view size that is suitable and then select ‘Apply’.
Your screen will momentarily go black and when it comes back on a window will appear asking you if you want to keep that setting. If everything looks okay select ‘Yes’, if you are not happy with the screen view size then select ‘Cancel’ and try moving the adjustment bar again.
It is possible to use some keyboard shortcuts to change the size of the print on your screen. Holding down CTRL on your keyboard while scrolling the mouse wheel will alter the size of the print on your screen. Every mouse may differ so you will need to experiment and see how this method works for you. If you do not have a mouse with a scroll wheel then it is possible to enlarge the screen view using just the keyboard. Again, hold down CTRL on your keyboard but this time use the - button to reduce the size of the screen and the + to enlarge it.
