Question Screen Size

Good Morning
A while back there was a discussion on changing the size of the program to match my screen size. I have looked until I have a headache and cannot find anything. I have a new screen which measures 16" across or 20"corner to corner. I think I remember an article stating how to fix the size so as not to have to use the bar at the bottom to scroll back and forth. If anyone remembers this article could you point me in the right direction.
THANK YOU in advance for your time and consideration

Default A Key Combination

'Ctrl' plus '+' will increase the size of the image to better fit your screen; 'Ctrl' plus '-' will decrease the size. I don't believe there's a way to achieve an exact fit, but I'd be happy to learn if someone else does....

How do you make the font bigger? Or will that throw everything out of place again? When I print from RR it comes out smaller than the screen size THANK YOU very much for all your help

Press the CTRL key and roll you mouse wheel at the same time.

EDIT TO ADD: I dunno. Maybe that won't do it. I just tried it and all it did was adjust my screen size. Not sure about what the relationship between what you see on the screen and what comes out of the printer may be.

Default I'd Suggest...

... that you try "print preview" before you actually print (easy if you're using FireFox for your browser) then size the image to fit the page.

Rolling the scroll wheel has no bearing on print size. To control print size in Firefox, go to File -> Page Setup, uncheck "Shrink to Fit Page Width," and mess around with the scale (100%) is original size, and see what works for you.

If using IE, you could click on View on the classic tool bar. Select Text Size and choose between

Largest
Larger
Medium
Smaller
Smallest

. . . whatever works for you.
