I surmise you are seeking to increase the size of all the text you see in all applications system-wide. In that case please open System Preferences > Accessibility. Review the options available to you under Vision. You can "zoom" the entire screen using a key combination.


Some applications (such as Safari) allow you to zoom in on the display using a two-finger trackpad gesture.


Font sizes themselves are changed in text editing applications (such as Pages) using a menu selection, but there is no equivalent way of doing that in the Finder (for example) or other apps that are not intended to manipulate text.
