MuseScore. In MuseScore I know how to increase Chord & Note sizes & Delete Words.
QUESTION.Do we have a PC program to do the same with Lead Sheets by increasing for larger view & Print Out.?

I use Adobe Acrobat to edit sheets. Particularly, cropping the sheet to remove any white border, to the edge of the staves.
This has the effect of making the score view larger, in effect as the "paper" size is still the same. In other words, by removing all white borders the bit you want to see grows in size.
I view music on a tablet by the way and you will notice the file size actually increases after the edit (strange but true)
I hope I've made it clear enough above

My program to make sheets, Notation Composer he can make big noots so big you want them that is really no problem,
But not forget the bigger the notes the more pages you get
In my sets also i can make a pdf file that takes 3 pages but if i make the notes much bigger it can become 9 pages or 14 pages you must not forget that
I have a program for that on my Pc and i have big screens the bigger the screen the bigger the notes
I make a view exempels what i mean
1 = smal fits on one page Global frontsize 10
2 = normal Global Frontsize 20 = 3 pages
3 = Big Global frontsize 30 = = 7 pages
4 Very Big Globak frontsize 40 = 20 pages
I hope you understand what i mean the bigger the notes the more pages you get
On A pc or Tablet that is no problem but if u use paper wow than it will be a problem
easy to reed but a problem to turn around the pages
And in this program i work many years now to make my Notation files with
You can do everything with this program change the notes change the shorts what ever you want
And when the notation is done i change the Rest in a Pdf program that can change the Notation file completely
But that program is not free i pay 150 Euro for one year to work with it but it is the money word
wow i have make so much Notation files that i pay every year for it

I used the full version of Notation Composer for many years, trimming midi, usually 32 bars Verse & Chorus until a Win10 update stopped it working as it should.
These were printed out with early version BIAB 2005 with just 2 sheets of good size.

My first step was to type a list of the larger, bolder "simple" chords that I want to use. These I scanned and saved as a tif file.
I now scan my smaller A5 size music books (148.5 x 210 mm / 5.8 x 8.3 inches) as tif files in order to enlarge them to A4 size (210 x 297 mm / 8.3 x 11.7 inches).
I use ArcSoft PhotoStudio to open a music sheet. This programme allows me to "stretch" the sheet to A4 size and to remove any item of the sheet that I do not want. I usually rearrange some items such as the composer's name and re-type the title.
I then add the larger simple chords that satisfy my desire for a simple song sheet.
Attached is the before and after of the latest page that I have scanned.
