changing font size

How do you change the font size in the typing practice lessons. help section just says use up and down arrows but that doesn't work. Font is too small and print is too light to read adequately..

To do this, you'd want to go to Options> General, click the actual arrows up and down to modify size as previewed then click OK when done.

I have just purchased the Keyblaze typing software. Like the previous message, I have problems with viewing everything at a decent-size. I have done as suggested in the options settings and have increased to the maximum font size, but this is still too small! I have sight problems, so it is important to me to be able to view the text to be typed at a size that is comfortable. I have a large monitor and the screen resolution is set to 3840 x 2160 (the recommended setting). Maybe the problem is at the software design end of things?

When I purchased the software, I assumed that everything would be running as one would expect, so did not opt in for technical support. Typing software should be straightforward and not need such technical support, in my opinion.

I look forward to some help, please.

"1. Set Font Size in KeyBlaze

KeyBlaze allows you to increase the font size within its settings, but it is limited to the application's maximum setting. To do this:

Go to Options > General in KeyBlaze.
Use the up and down arrows next to the font size setting. The preview will show you how big the text will be in the lessons and exercises.

If this is already at the maximum and is still too small, move on to system settings.

2. Change Windows Display Scaling

Increasing "Text Size" or "Scaling" in Windows will make EVERYTHING bigger, including KeyBlaze's interface and lesson text:

Right-click your Desktop and choose Display Settings.
Find Scale & layout > Scale.
Try setting it to 150%, 175%, or even 200% (higher percentages make things bigger).
Keep your Screen Resolution at 3840x2160 (Recommended) for best display.

This will increase the size of text, buttons, and menus in most programs — including KeyBlaze — making your workspace much easier to see.

Accessibility Tips

In Windows Settings > Accessibility, you can also find specific controls for "Text size" and "Display magnifier."
The Windows Magnifier tool (Win key + Plus key) can also help you zoom in on areas of the screen temporarily.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Some third-party apps have their own font limits and may ignore Windows scaling settings, but KeyBlaze responds to both its internal font setting and Windows display scaling.
Raising your system’s scaling percentage is the most effective way to get extra-large fonts throughout all apps."
