Question

font size is still too small on iMac desktop!

The turbotax font size for the desktop version on iMac is too small, and very difficult to read. I saw a post that showed a solution for the PC version to increase the font size, but the only solution provided for the mac was to use system preferences to change the resolution of the display. This is unacceptable! The font size is so small, that it is very, very, very difficult to read. Please provide a way to increase the font size on a Mac!

    Here are a few workarounds that might help:

     

    1. Adjust Display Scaling – Go to System Settings > Displays and select a lower resolution. This will make everything on your screen larger, including TurboTax.
    2. Use Zoom Features – macOS has built-in zoom options. Try Command (⌘) + Option + 8 to enable screen zoom, then use Command (⌘) + Option + Plus (+) to zoom in.
    3. Change Font Size in macOS – Some apps allow font size changes via Format > Show Fonts, but TurboTax may not support this.
    4. External Monitor – If you have access to a larger screen, connecting your Mac to an external monitor with a lower resolution might help.

    This recommendation is still just an unacceptable workaround. I hope that this gets fixed soon.
