Try this following method:

  • Zoom In : Ctrl+Shift++
  • Zoom Out: Ctrl+-
  • Zoom 100%: Ctrl+0

Hope this helps!

Ctrl + - doesn't work for me. But a workaround is to change the shortcut for the Zoom Out action.

Right click on the terminal and select Preferences. Then Shortcuts. Then change the Shortcut Key for Zoom Out to whatever you want. I chose Ctrl + Backspace.
