I'm doing the 1099 Misc and it says the font is preset to what irs requires, which I read to be 12 pt courier but it looks small. Any suggestions where/how to see what the setting is? thanks

I'll share a solution to help you with the font, outerbanks.

While we're unable to enlarge the font within QuickBooks, you can try changing the DPI settings by following these steps:

1. Close QuickBooks entirely and then right-click on the QuickBooks icon from your computer desktop.
2. Choose Properties and click the Compatibility tab.
3. Select Disable display scaling on high DPI settings.
4. Hit Apply, and then OK. 

I've got this article for the other solution: Fix screen issues in QuickBooks Desktop.

Once done. open your company and prepare the 1099 form. You can follow the steps here: Create and file 1099s with QuickBooks Desktop.

If there's anything else you need, please feel free to reach out to me. I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Take care!

Thank you for your quick reply but I am not that great with the computer to do that so I'm hesitant.  Can you tell me if the preset font is acceptable to irs? 

Thanks!
