I changed the layout as suggested to 96 but this did not change the font sizes back to normal. Any ideas what to do now?

Fonts are too large on layout of firefox page. Did as requested and changed layout css dpi to 96 but this did not affect font size at all. What do I do next to get it back to normal - wait for another upgrade to change the mistakes of this one?

== I changed to latest update

Try smaller (24) or larger values for the pref layout.css.dpi to see if that has the wanted effect.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.css.dpi

I have changed the number in the layout.css.dpi to a variety of others as suggested but none of this has made any difference to the overall font size of the browser layout. Can you not do another up grade to rectify the faults of this one. You're getting to be like Microsoft now!!!!!!!

What are the DPI settings in Windows? Did you make any changes there? Control Panel > Display: Settings > Advanced > General : DPI

Thank you for your help. Turned out it was a windows problem. DPI was 125% and returned it to 100%. I then returned to layout and put that back to 96. All now seems to be well. Apologies Firefox, you@re not like microsoft.
