I have installed Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

  • On Intel® Desktop Board DH55TC
  • With Intel® Core™ i3 CPU 540 @ 3.07GHz
  • 500 GB SATA hard drive
  • Connected to 42" LG TV with HDMI cable
  • TP-Link 300 MB USB wireless LAN
  • Wireless keyboard & mouse

All drivers are installed properly, display is also nice looking as per the TV. All is working fine.

As display is on 42" TV and I am seating far, I cannot read. Is there any utility which can make screen more readable and we can work from far or any kind of work around.

It's quite simple actually - find the "Displays" utiltity in the dash,and drag the "Scale for menus and titlebars" slider to the right, which will make everything bigger:

Another possibility would be to lower the resolution, which would also make things bigger on-screen. A third possibility may be to change the DPI, but that's somewhat complicated.
