Tab too small to read on Kindle Cloud Reader

[agfsteve]

Last night I bought the Kindle version of a music book (notation and tab) to read using the Kindle Cloud Reader app (I don't own a Kindle), but it is too small to read on my laptop screen.

I tried using the maximum font size, but it does not adjust the notation or tab size, only the actual text of the book. I also tried using the zoom function on my browser (Chrome), and it does increase the size of the notation and tab, but it also takes away the scroll bars, so I only get to see the top of the page, so that is useless.

Does anyone know how to get around this problem?

I don't want to change any actual settings on my laptop, like resolution, etc., because everything else looks fine to me.

Thanks!

I've used the Kindle app on my phone and have been able to click on the notation and it zooms in / makes it full screen maybe it does the same on your laptop.

Do you have an iPad?

Clicking on the notation (or anything) doesn't do anything. Double-clicking brings up the options of highlighting and making notes (not useful), and right-clicking doesn't do anything.

Thanks for the suggestions.

No, it's a Windows 10 laptop.

Thanks

Yep, in fact I decided to go ahead and order the real book when I realised that I couldn't read the Kindle one, but I thought I'd try squinting at a couple of tunes in the Kindle one first, and I'm glad I did, because I discovered that they are not what I thought they were: These are Christmas Carols that I wanted to play for my mum, but both Away In A Manger and O Little Town Of Bethlehem don't sound anything like the versions that I learned in school. I guess they are "modern" versions, or American versions?

Oh well, live and learn. I guess I will have to try to work out some carols on my own, or see if I can find the traditional / English versions of the above on YouTube or somewhere.

Wikipedia gives two different melodies (essentially an American version and a British version) for each of those carols:
