  <title>Change text size on the screen</title>

  <p>If you have difficulty reading the text on your screen, you can change the
  size of the font.</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and
      start typing <gui>Universal Access</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click on <gui>Universal Access</gui> to open the panel.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Switch <gui>Large Text</gui> to <gui>ON</gui> in the <gui>Seeing</gui>
      section.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>Alternatively, you can quickly change the text size by clicking the
  <link xref="a11y-icon">accessibility icon</link> on the top bar and selecting
  <gui>Large Text</gui>.</p>

  <note style="tip">
    <p>In many applications, you can increase the text size at any time by
    pressing <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>+</key></keyseq>. To reduce the text
    size, press <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>-</key></keyseq>.</p>
  </note>

  <p><gui>Large Text</gui> will scale the text by 1.2 times. You can use
  <app>Tweaks</app> to make text size bigger or smaller.</p>
