I have a 15" computer screen and would like to get a 22". Is the print larger on the 22" than what I currently have? I was told that the size of the print would remain the same but the pictures are definitely larger.

The size of your monitor does not affect the font size. That is controlled by 1 the dpi setting (advanced, general tab) and 2 the resolution (settings tab). You can set both to a setting best for you in display properties.
Also note you can increase the size of your system font in display properties also (appearence). This could be useful for using a higher resolution ie more desktop real estate, but still being able to read whats on the screen

Just as you can on your 15" screen, you also can on a 22" screen, go to the Control Panel and set the font size of your display to any visible size you wish.

There will be some increase in size but any major difference will depend on how your set up resolution the higher the setting the smaller everything will seem.

Even if you get a 22" monitor you're able to adjust the resolution to your preference allowing things to be bigger or smalle

How the images and text etc appears on your monitor is set by the screen resolution. (Right click on your desktop and select Properties then Settings.)

Everything will appear proportionaly larger. It like going from a small TV to a bigger one, everything is bigger.
