My cousin bought a new iMac and has been having a problem with the font size. I told her I'd post the question here. Anyone have any ideas? Here's her question:


I bought a new iMac with 21.5" monitor. The resolution is 1920 x 1080 and clear as a bell, but the text on the menu bars is so tiny it's hard to see. Same thing in Firefox and Thunderbird. In Thunderbird, I can increase the text size in the message pane, but nowhere else. I'm squinting and straining to read the text. If I decrease the resolution on the monitor, it does make the text larger, but it's blurry and even more difficult to read. It's running OS X Snow Leopard Version 10.6.2. Does anyone know of how to adjust the text independent of the resolution?
