Change font size on computer screen

You haven't told us where on the computer you want to increase the font size. If you just talking about the browser screen, in most cases you can just hold down the Ctrl key and press the + key repeatedly until they are the size you wish. In MS Word you change the size in the window slot to the right of the font name.

My words in my compt. are so small i cant even read my websites well.my kids played wiyh it and they shranked all the words.can u help?

Assuming you have a MS Windows OS. There are a couple of ways to remedy this situation. Option one is to change the screen resolution by right clicking on the desktop screen and selecting Properties and then Settings. Change the Screen Resolution to something lower than the current setting. This will cause everything to enlarge on the screen. Option 2 is to just change the font size as the standard. Right click on the desktop screen and select Properties. Select Appearance and change the Font Size to Large Fonts or Extra Large Fonts. If you are trying to change the font in Internet Explorer then choose View/Text Size, select Larger or Largest. That will change only the fonts inside Internet Explorer.
