it all looks so small

[zoran]

On a 27" iMac when using Adobe apps (and not only) everything is so small, from application font sizes to the text on the application menu tabs etc. is there a way to bypass this issue? Perhaps be able to enlargen the font sizes used there so they will be viewable. Also the tools look very small, any solution regarding that?

change the screen resolution, or run your apps under windows which has a resolution independence feature.

With Adobe Photoshop you have the option to make the fonts bigger:

Did you restart the application? I surely got bigger fonts on tabs and such when doing so on my 17" MBP with its 1920 x 1200 pixel.

Thanks for this tip! I never noticed this in preferences before.

Yes it does work, but to be honest i wouldn't mind if they were a little bigger! Other than phsop, what other Adobe CS5 apps (illustrator, indesign etc.) have these features?
