Have you ever had the feeling that you’re squinting at your Mac screen in an attempt to view small, difficult-to-read text?
That is, until now. We have an unique technique that highlights details.
Ready, set, zoom
First things come first. Let’s boot up your Mac and explore the wonders of the zoom feature, which allows you to use keyboard shortcuts to zoom in and out. There are three primary keyboard shortcuts that you can use to activate your browser’s text zoom feature.
How to make the text in your Mac’s browser zoom out
Do you want that text to enlarge in front of you? Yes, that’s the one next to your delete key. Hold down the Command key (look to the left of your space bar) and hit the Plus symbol at the same time. By doing this, the text will enlarge to fill your browser window.
Cmd + Plus (+)
How to zoom in text in your Mac’s browser
A lot of zoom? Not an issue. Simply hold down the Command key and press the minus sign (to the left of the plus sign) on your keyboard. This reduces the size of the text, making it smaller within the browser window.
Cmd + Minus (-)
How to return to the default display in your Mac browser
Holding down the command key and pressing zero, which is to the left of the minus symbol, will quickly reset your device if you’ve gone a little too far. This will return the font size to the standard view in your Mac browser.
Cmd + Zero (0)
How to use the browser menu to change the text size in your browser
Are keyboard shortcuts not your thing? You may use the menu on your browser to accomplish the same things with a few quick clicks.
- Open your browser and navigate to the menu at the top of the screen.
- Click the “view” tab at the top.
- Then click zoom in or zoom out to increase or decrease text in your browser window.
There you have it, a simple guide to getting the most out of your Mac’s zoom features. Whether you use keyboard shortcuts or browser menus, prepare for potential text size issues.
