    Not really a way, you have to display an LCD at it's native resolution otherwise it will be a distorted image and there is no way to force system font sizes on to everything, some things simply do not use it. The only solutions are dealing with it or changing out the panel.

    ctrl - +, if you are using Chrome or Firefox, will resize the text in your browser.

    Holding ctrl and using the scroll wheel also works.
