Zoom key function

When I load a new WEB page the text is so small I can hardly read it. I use the zoom key to enlarge the page so I can read it. The history function does remember the setting and goes back to it the next time I access the page. What I would like to know is how do you set the zoom function so any new page will open so I can read it. I tried working with the font but that doesn't work real well. Is there not a way to set the zoom function at a certain level so it will be the same all the time?

You can set a minimum text size for all pages. See the #Minimum_text_size article.

That way, if the size defined on the page is smaller than the size that you set, it will be displayed at that size.

Although the Add In works. It only works on about 50% of the WEB pages. I just access a number of pages I had to zoom to read.
