Changing Text Sizes

All web browsers have some provision for altering the size of text on screen. Most modern browsers allow text resizing or page zooming from the keyboard: hold down CONTROL (CMD on the Mac) and + (plus) or - (minus) to increase/decrease text sizes. CONTROL (CMD on the Mac) and 0 (zero) should return the text to the default size.

Alternatively select ‘View / Text Size’ (‘View / Zoom’ in Opera) from the menu bar and increase/decrease the size setting for the text.

For Internet Explorer (versions 5 and 6 only) you may first need to disable style sheets, to do so follow these directions:

  1. From the Menu Bar select ‘Tools / Internet Options’
  2. Select the ‘General’ tab and click the box entitled ‘Accessibility’
  3. Ensure that the three buttons under ‘Formatting’ are checked
  4. Click OK in ‘Accessibility’ dialog box
  5. Click OK in ‘Internet Options’ dialog box
  6. Click ‘Refresh’.

Note: If you’re not sure which browser or version you’re using, simply select ‘Help / About…’ from the main menu. The specific menu option may read ‘Help / About Internet Explorer’, ‘Help / About Opera’ etc.
