In my previous version, Adobe Reader X, the menu bar had a tab for setting the font size to any % desired. I don't see that anywhere on this new version.

Go to View-> Show/Hide-> Page Controls-> Uncheck 'Undock' and the option above should be 'Hide Page Controls'. Please refer the following Image :

If you want to change font size while you are editing the file :

You can do so by clicking on the Edit PDF option on the right hand side pane and then you can choose font size under Format options.

Hope that helps.

None of the above given solutions seems to be working here.

Maybe it is worth noting:

They don't work for me either, but I think that's because Editing(changing font size) a pdf in adobe is a feature that you have to pay for. And I'm only running the free version and features of Adobe.

Edit PDF option just opens the browser page to get a paid version. Do you have the feature in the free version?

No. You have to use Acrobat to get this feature.

Hey Karen,

You can change the Font & Font size of the text & comments in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.

Open Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, navigate to Edit menu-> Preferences.

Select Commenting under Categories & change the font & font size.

Nothing changed! I have trouble reading the characters on the page, and

what the whole thing to be bigger, with bigger characters. I tried changing

the font size from 10 to 18, but the display was unchanged.

Help!
