How can I set a default zoom for the browser (freeze it)?

Hello, there's an option of using the Ctrl + + to zoom the Web page, but it reverts to the Firefox default zoom in the midst which is very annoying. Generally, I'd like to be able to set a certain default zoom level and then only if needed use the CTRL +/- zoom in and out options. So my optimal zoom level is used for all my browsing unless I change it.

Chosen solution

I have listed 2 add-ons below for you to consider. I have not used NoSquint, but I use and rely on Default FullZoom Level.

You can also set a "Minimum Font Size" in Firefox Options > Content > Fonts & Colors Advanced".

Many thanks (name?). Checked out all the options you listed. In the end, went for the NoSquint add on. Thanks again! Donna
