It's too far away. CRTs don't have zoom controls to adjust the image size. You must position the projector at the correct distance for your screen size, and it's generally a bit further than the screen width.

Tell us what projector you have and we'll be able to help better.

If you took the time to read the manuals and the information pertaining to your projector the we have shown you, you would not be asking these questions. Please try to educate yourself.
