I'm hoping that you can help me with something...

Some websites are displaying in very small, tiny font. This happened all of a sudden and is particularly happening in mail, google search (the meta information, not the site title) and a number of other sites.

In gmail, the graphics all look fine, it is just the text that is very hard to read.

I have tried resetting my zoom, zooming in, clearing my cache and have googled the problem extensively. I have also reinstalled and restarted firefox but none of this has worked. Zooming in does allow me to read the text more clearly but the screen is still not displaying as it was and I would just like a normal screen again with readable font.

I am not experiencing this problem with IE or chrome.

Many thanks for your help.

If you go under the edit tab, there should be an option for "Preferences". Click on that, and you should have a new window pop up. From that window, go to the content tab and there should be a font altering option. You may change the size of the font to your preference, as well as the font type if you're so inclined.

I hope this helps. I'll try to keep track of this in case it does not.

You may have zoomed the page(s) by accident.
Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.

Note that 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 (i.e text can overlap in some cases).

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