I called Apple and they said go to 

Settings>Displays>top row, choose one of the five window sizes with the red/yellow/green buttons that makes thinks the way you want them

 

That blew the sizes up on everything on my computer

You might have to contact Support if no one here reads your post who has a MacBook Pro.

 

What is the TurboTax phone number? (intuit.com)

Apple places that info online, but did they ever try to follow their own directions? Where is this elusive "Format" button from within Finder or Safari or Chrome or Turbotax. Nowhere, that's where, but thank you for trying to help me

For a PC / Windows

Open TurboTax.

Look at the top left for the menu in the black stripe for "VIEW"

Click on VIEW, move your cursor to the right and click on "Zoom In" or "Zoom Out"

OR

Using your keyboard, hold down the CTRL key and select the "+" key to zoom in, or the "-" key to zoom out
