1 or 2 at max, given the Mac.


A. Try Changing the Resolution:

See what happens when you change the resolution on the Mac, or on the monitor's internal settings. It might give you just what you need for font size.


B. Troubleshooting This:

  1. Go Here: Change your Mac Display's Resolution - Apple Support
  2. Scroll to: Set the resolution for a connected display

You are limited to one external display.

From: Use one or more external displays with your Mac - Apple Support (English)

"For Mac computers with the Apple M1 Chip: You can connect a single external display to your Mac. Docks don’t increase the number of displays you can connect. "
