How do I see all of the text in a box?

On some pages text gets cut off. It's usually when there is a box that the text resides in. Here is an example from my Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Life-Coaching-By-Rick/569184849771059?ref=hl#

The text, "......and manifest the life they've always dreamed of," gets cut off and I can't see it. I can see in on my iPad.

If you have made changes to Advanced font settings like increasing the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" in case the current setting is causing problems.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)

Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.

  • Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but to use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with text not being displayed properly.

You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

One possible cause is zooming the text without zooming the container itself. This results from "Zoom Text Only" being turned on. Could you check here:

View menu > Zoom > Zoom Text Only

It also can be caused by setting a larger than usual default font size, but on Facebook, that probably isn't the issue because the site controls nearly everything in great detail.
