Select a smaller screen resolution from the list of available resolutions, this may include 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p, or direct resolutions like 1600 x 900, 1024 x 768, 800 x 600, 640 x 480 – to make the onscreen text size and other onscreen elements larger aim for a smaller number, such as 720p or 1024×768.For Non-Retina Macs & External Displays:.Select “Larger Text” from the options available, you will see a pop-up message saying “Are you sure you want to switch to this scaled resolution? When using this scaled resolution, some applications may not fit entirely on screen.” so choose “OK” to confirm that you wish to use the larger text size scaled resolution.Next to the “Resolution” section, choose “Scaled”.Go to the “Display” preference panel, then to the “Display” tab.Go to the Apple menu and choose “System Preferences”.This will increase the size of all onscreen fonts and interface elements by using a different display resolution, it’s slightly different for Retina displays and non-Retina displays, we’ll cover both: How to Increase Screen Element & Text Size in Mac OS X
The example images below will help to show this, but it’s better experienced yourself on your own Mac and display. There’s a trade-off with this approach in that you lose or gain screen real estate (space for windows and stuff on the display) in order to increase or decrease the size of text and interface elements. In some cases, this may mean running on a non-native scaled resolution, which tends to look best on Retina displays. To change the system text size this way, we’ll be changing the screen resolution of the Mac display itself.
