Text Size in Firefox

[corkyg]

Am trying Firefox, and it is passing all my tests except one. That is, changing the text size. To make the text larger, one goes to View, Text Size, Increase. Or - Control ++.

That works fine - but it does not stay. When I close the p[rogram it reverts to micro text. How can such changes be made permanent?

type about:config in navbar.
filter font.size

locate
font.size.variable.x-unicode
and
font.size.variable.x-western

default is 16- change to a higher number.

if you use different encoding, change the one you use.

Tools -> Options -> General -> Fonts and Colors.

Thanks - I found the one that works easily as suggested by Igowerf. I had been many times in Fonts/Colors, but only adjusted the top font size. That didn't work too well because it made some things too big. The solution was down below to set MINIMUM FONT SIZE at a comfortable level, ,ainly for these notes.

Thanks, guys!

Set minimum font size is such a great feature, epecially if your eyesight's not great...

I'm impressed that you figured that out.
