Vista Font Size

I have a couple questions for all of you today. First, are you a Windows Vista user? And second, do you sometimes have a little trouble reading the text on certain Web sites you visit or even when you're working on other things on your Vista computer? If you said yes to both of those questions, I think you're just going to absolutely love what I have for you today! This quick tip is all about changing the font size in Windows Vista for a better viewing experience. Let's check it out!

If you want to increase the size of your font in Vista, it's just a couple clicks away. To do so, right click your desktop and choose Personalize. Then in the left pane, click on the "Adjust font size (DPI)" link. After you do that, a type of warning will pop up asking for your permission to continue. Just hit the Continue button and move on. (That is only there because you're changing something on your computer and they want to make sure it really is okay with you). Next, click the option that says "Larger scale (120 DPI) - make text more readable." When you're all finished, click OK.

You should see an instant change, but you can check it out even further by opening up your Web browser and going to your favorite Web site. Or maybe open up a document you've been working on. Either way, the font size will be much larger and you will no longer have to strain your eyes to see what's written. Increasing the font size will reduce the number of headaches you get while working on your computer and you'll just be happier all the way around. It doesn't get any better than that!
