If someone else was using your iPad and increased the text size, or if you have simply always thought the text was too large, then you may find the smaller amount of information that fits on the device screen to be a problem. Fortunately you can reduce the text size on your iPad 2 to a level that is best for you.
Make Text Smaller on the iPad
The steps in this article were performed in iOS 8, on an iPad 2. Steps may vary for earlier versions of the operating system.

Step 1: Open the Settings menu.
Step 2: Select Display & Brightness from the column at the left side of the screen.
Step 3: Select the Text Size option at the right of the screen.
Step 4: Drag the slider at the right side of the screen until you reach your desired text size. Note that the middle option is the default setting.
