Hi - What app (Word, Internet Explorer, etc.) are you printing from?  Typically the size of the font is controlled by the app that you're in.  For instance, in Word (depending on the version), you'd click Format, Font and you can select the size.  In Internet Explorer you'd choose View, Text Size.

Hope that helps.

Hi ,

Thanks for the quick reply. Iam not sure if that is going to help me at all. The format is a pdf doc that iam trying to enlarge so it is easier to read. It is actually a leaflet about  HongKong International airport that is laid out flat to look at, unfortunately when you print it it is so small i can only read some of it.

Hi - I found this info on the Adobe site (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/332/332720.html):

How do I print the font in a bigger size?

The Print dialog box does not provide an option to change only the font size. You can do any of the following to enlarge the font:

• Scale the entire PDF out to the page margins. See "Manually scale using percentages" in the article Print: scale or resize pages.
• Print a selected portion of the PDF and scale it using Fit to Printable Area. See Print a portion of the page.
• (Acrobat only) To change the font size for a specific page or the entire document, use the Edit Document Text tool (Acrobat X) or TouchUp Text tool (Acrobat 9). To learn more, for Acrobat X see Edit text; for Acrobat 9 see Edit text.

If none of these options work, it doesn't look like you'll be able to change the font size.

Hope that helps.
