It would appear that your computer has "hi-jacked" the Ctrl+F2 shortcut. <sigh> Holding the Fn (function) key may change the behavior.

Note that you can zoom the Print Preview, if that helps. Use the slider at the bottom right. You can't edit that view any more, though.

Would it help if you could hide markup from the markup area, and only see the comment and formatting balloons? On the Review tab, click the dialog launcher (the little arrow on the bottom right) of the Tracking group. In the dialog box, choose what you prefer in the "Balloons in the All Markup view show" drop down. Click OK.
