Firefox 4 text size

Big Chris · 7 May 2011 at 16:02

I've installed Firefox 4 on my Old Man's PC as IE9 is a bit flaky still.

His eyesight isn't the best and in IE9 he had the text size set to Larger.

I can't find a similar setting in FF4 though :confused:

There's a Zoom option but this only seems to adjust the page you're viewing - open a new page and it still shows in the default text size.

Any ideas?

Ctrl+Scroll wheel?

That zooms on the page you're looking at, but only the page you're looking at.

In IE9 changing the text size under the view menu sets it for every page you look at, not just the one you're looking at.

If you go to tools/Options/Content then find default font then advanced. You can alter it from here, especially untick allow pages to choose there own fonts and also set minimum font size.
