Spotlight: how to enlarge preview

Hi all,


I searched for one hour on google, but couldn't find the answer nowhere: how can I enlarge the preview in Spotlight?


You see, I'm on a cinema display. The preview of a doc Spotlight gives me is only about 5% of my screen surface, which is way too small to be readable.


I would be extremely thankful to the person giving the right answer on how to make the preview in spotlight bigger because it's really frustrating me 😟


Thanks a lot!

Hi Livebox,


Thank you for your quick answer.


Unfortunately, holding CTRL with a two finger up is unpractical, and pdf's become extremely blurry by using this command.


Is there another option? I know it is possible, because the excellent new app 'Found' (www.foundapp.com) has this feature: it adapts the preview automatically to the size of your screen. But I had to uninstall Found because it only searches in titles, not in documents itself.
