This issue does not apply to Internet Explorer. My use of the word truncate may not describe what is being displayed. When I am viewing a website a portion of the bottom of characters that show in a link that is superimposed on a dark backround, e.g. a "button" is cut off.

Can you attach a screenshot?
You can't attach a screenshot to the first post that starts a thread, but you can do that in subsequent replies.

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.


If you have increased 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.
