Are you referring to Advanced System Font Size Changer?

I have that installed on my W10 system, but of course, does nothing for
text you've entered into a word processor, for instance.

I've noticed that sometimes, when you switch to different fonts, the
design of the font will no longer fit into a field that you populate.

Both of these problems are solved with out any tweaking by simply
lowering the screen resolution.Â* But as I mentioned, you do need a
larger monitor, unless you already own one.


Yes, and yes it has some drawbacks and is only helpful for certain things.
I had a 23" IPS monitor but due to my very poor eyesight I have now
switched to a 27" Asus IPS which helps a lot
I suffer from Albinism, astigmatism and Nystagmus Which gives me about
20/240 with my glasses on I don't know what it is without glasses.
I look at my monitor from a distance of about 6 inches so it involves a
lot of head swiveling, but I manage.
