Can any of you computer whizzes tell me if theres a way to increase the font size on this board? I got a new puter with a flat moniter, most sites are fine but a few, including this one, come up very tiny.


Thanks...................Brian

Go up to the top of the page where it says View. Click on it and menu will drop down, click on Text Size, then click on increase. That should do it.

Your right this web site 'forces' the font size.

One way to make the font size selectable is this.

Tools > Internet Options > General Tab > Accessibility Button.

Put a check mark in front of "Ignore Font Sizes Specified On Web Pages"

Now you will be able to use View > Text Size selector.

Try changing the resolution of your display settings on your computer.


this will change the size of all of the images on you monitor.

Right click on the desktop in the general field and select Properties, then click settings tab, and adjust the size and hit apply.

If you are using internet exploder the text size in on the view menu, five different sizes. My logitec mouse can do this on the fly if you push down on the scroll wheel.

Greg give it a try with this site. ![icon_wink.gif](upload://ssT9V5t45yjlgXqiFRXL04eXtqw.gif)

This site has a specified font size and the view / font / size selector will not override it unless you have the accessibility setting checked to ignore the specified size.

I wonder why it works on mine. I do it all the time by going to View, etc. etc. especially when I am tired and lazy. I can blow it up to HUGH and read it from across the room. Go figure.
