    Changing Font Size & Type on Firefox Browser and others
    « on: February 13, 2013, 02:15:37 PM »
    The size of my webpages just got tiny.  I went into control panel-display and then adjusted from small to medium (125%).  I also tried by going tools-options and increasing the font size.  Unfortunately, neither way has worked well.  For example, only some parts of my gmail page got bigger, while other parts are still tiny.  Can anyone assist?!  THANKS

    To change view size keeping aspect in any browser you can hold down the CTRL button and move the mouse scroll wheel up or down...
    Changing the font sizes on the other hand only affects areas with text.

    Alternatively if you have no scroll whell use the + -- keys while holding CTRL.

      Have you tried going to "view"( on the toolbar) on the site open and seeing what it currently shows under "zoom" as to size (expressed in a percent). If 100% is acceptable then click on that and should do it. truenorth
