Font Size on MacBook Air

The default font size on my new MacBook Air is too small to read from my lap. How can I change that setting? No problems with changing font size/style with documents, etc. Just can't find a way to change the default setting.)

Thanks.

  3. Select Displays.
  4. Click Scaled.
  5. Select a lower resolution. If you see icons with different sized previews of text, select the icon that says Larger Text and click OK.
