How to: Set the default font size in your browser |
|
You can change your default text size of your browser by typing about:config. The problem is you would have to do this everytime. So the solution is to make some bookmarked pages with different default fontsizes. Here's how :
How to set Default Font Size
Step 1: Enter in your browser address bar: about:config
Step 2: At the top of the page where it says NAME, enter:
| font.minimum-size.x-western |
Then where it says value enter: 16
Click on Set Preference. Now you have configured the font size. But in order to start a browser window with this fontsize, we'll have to create some bookmarks.
Creating Shortcuts
Step 1: Open the Bookmarks manager and create a new folder for your large fontsize bookmarks.
Step 2: Next, create a new bookmark
Step 3: In the field 'Name' enter: Font 24 and on Address type:
| about:config?prefname=font.minimum-size.x-western&prefvalue=24 |
Choose the bookmarks folder created in step 1 and click OK.
Repeat Part 2 steps 1 through 3 as many times as you want just changing the name of the bookmark to Font 16, or whatever you like and also change the default value on Step 3 on the address bar after prefvalue
More examples:
Name: Font 32
Address: about:config?prefname=font.minimum-size.x-western&prefvalue=32
Name: Font 16
Address: about:config?prefname=font.minimum-size.x-western&prefvalue=16
