Fong,

When a computer tech sets up a new computer or monitor, she/he usually sets it to the greatest resolution possible. This results in unacceptably small print in many applications.

Reset the display properties to fewer pixels. 1024 x 768 is good for normal monitors. The second number will be larger on wide-screen monitors. Try various settings and various programs until you get one you like. (Do NOT change the DPI setting; it should be 96DPI (normal size).)
