      OK I will try this.

      But if I use Print Prevu then why does Firefox have in the Contant Tab Font Size  and Advance Tab to change everything? When you go into Contant Tab and change Font Size what is this for???

      I think that setting is for webpages that have not specified the font size themselves.

          OK well I foundout that when you set the Font Size in Firefox that it just efects the size text looks on screen.

          So I am not sure why my text is printing so so so small..

          I do not see in pint Prevu anything for Font Size or things like this.
          Am I right that Firefox does not have anything to do with printing size??

            Now I am realy miss understanding how Text Prints.

            I whent onto Google and I foundout everything you do with Text Font and things like this is for the on screen display.

            Then I saw all this stuff about page setup but not for what I am talking about.

            Does anyone know what I meen all the Text on every web page is printing very very very small.

            And it just started.
            I have Win XP PRO and Firefox do these two things have anything to do with it??

            The setting in print preview which Patio mentioned is titled "Scale:".
            Try experimenting with the different percentages on the drop-down menu.
            Some pages do not print well at a high percentage but it is worth a try.

            "Page Setup" also has the scale setting but you cannot preview the results from there.

                  Normal bumps here are $1.75...
                  But since you have abused the "anyone" bump they are now billed at $2.25...
                  Please send in $87.50.

                  Thank You for your continued support.

                    OK I sent $ 25.00 in so he it goes.

                    I whent on YouTube and looked around for Font Setting for Firefox and this is what I foundout.

                    When you go into Contant Tab and set Font Size and even if you go into Advanced Tab and set Font Size there to. And even if you Un Check Let Web Site Force Font Size.

                    All of these things just will have efect on how Text is Displayed on screen.

                    Now when I go into Print Prevu I set Scale but it jumps from 30 to 50 and you can't hand type a number in there and when I set it to 30 it still was very very small no change.
                    And when I set it to 50 it would not print.

                    What step do you think I should try????

                    OK I sent $ 25.00

                    25 is a good start, but the accrued interest overall on such a long term set of payments often exceeds the total cost of the bumps... in this case starting at the introductory rate of  $1.75

                    however, over a certain annoyance limit the price is raised to "tier 2" at which point an "anyone bump" costs $2.25 (stupid questions are still free).

                    however, if you aren't careful, you might be promoted to tier 3, where all your questions cost a princely sum to post, bumps are a small fortune, and nobody replies.


                    In any case.

                    If you want to print BIGGER text, why are you using a PERCENTAGE smaller then 100% to do so? possible clarification as to the existence of any logic there?
                    I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

                      OK if I am under the ADMIN Account and when I am on the net with Firefox I go to Print Prevu and set Scale to 100%  and everything prints greate and normale Sized Font.

                      Under the Limited Account I go to Print Prevu and do the same thing set Scale to 100%  but it never stays set to 100% under the limited Account.

                      As soo as I leave and closs Firefox and go away and come back to Print a Web Page I have to set Print Prevu Scale to 100%

                      The Limited Account wont remember it. How can I get it to remember it???

                      My ADMIN Accut remembers it.
