To override website font and color settings

If you want to have the fonts and colors you specify in Internet Explorer to be used for all websites, regardless of the fonts that have been set by the website designer, follow these steps.

1. In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
2. On the General tab, click Accessibility.
3. Select the Ignore colors specified on webpages, Ignore font styles specified on webpages, and Ignore font sizes specified on webpages check boxes, and then click OK twice.

Yes, very simple and easy. Just:

Hold down the "Ctrl" key on your keyboard and at the same time roll the wheel on your mouse TOWARDS YOU ONE CLICK AT A TIME. When text is large enough just stop. If you want to make it smaller just do it again but roll the wheel Away from you or Forward one click at a time. This will enlarge every page on the site.

Another tool that can help you is to go to your Start menu, then to Accessories then to Magnifyer. It will give you a special window at the top of your screen that magnifies everything you have your cursor on.


I didn't read the whole thread so I don't know if someone already told you this.
Exact steps: Start> All Programs> Accessories> Accessibilities> Magnifyer

Safari has an option under VIEW to increase font size, as I am sure almost any other browser has a similar option. I would recommend setting your computer to a larger VIEW size, rather than messing with the fonts on the forum. I do this all the time when my eyes are tired, and it enlarges everything from the fonts here to the fonts on Huffington Post and Yahoo and throughout the internet.

Another way to enlarge what you're reading, is to click control and +.
Hit the + until you reach the size print that you're comfotable with.
