Chosen solution

When in Firefox, you can use:

  • "CTRL" and "+" (i.e. plus sign) to increase the font size;
  • "CTRL" and "-" (i.e. minus sign) to decrease the font size; and
  • "CTRL" and "0" (i.e. zero) to go to normal font size.

Hope this helps.

Using the Ctrl key along with the mouse scroll wheel will change the zoom level of the page you are viewing, in addition to the aforementioned keyboard key combos.
