Web Page Fonts

Post by Ricky »

I am having problems with font sizes on web pages.

Some fonts are ok others are coming up small

Have changed settings in Iternet Explorer, sizes still the same.

I assume this is pages you are viewing, rather then webpages you are writing?

Maybe post some links for others to try - help determine if it is your PC/setup or the actual pages?
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman, "Where's the self-help section?"
She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

not sure what to suggest really - looked at both halifax.co.uk and http://www.iomtt.com/ and both are pretty normal looking websites to me on my PC :scratch:

can you do a screen grab and post the pic to show the problem?

I thought the control + scroll worked on every computer.

I just tried it on Halifax and it works fine :scratch:
