If Status Bar is visible on bottom of screen click leftmost of the three small 
icons towards the right hand end of it.  Then right click in the % box at 
extreme right end and select a scale - 100% is good to start with, or Optimum.

If Status Bar is not showing on bottom of screen, select /View /Status Bar and 
then as above

You can adjust the onscreen scaling by different selections from the popup when 
you right click in the % box.

You can also adjust the view and scaling by using /View /Zoom
