I am having eye sight problems. Could any one tell me how, or if, I could increase the print size on web pages so that it will be easier for me to read? Thanks much.

Hi Solo833,

If you have a scroll wheel on your mouse, hold down the Ctrl key on your keypad and use your scroll wheel to enlarge (or decrease) the size of the web page.

Hope this helps.

Hi Solo,

If that does not work try this: View>Text Size> Increase. I am using Firefox Browser, though, so it might not work if you are not using it.

Good luck....

IF PAT'S TIP IS NOT LARGE ENOUGH, OR YOU HAVEN'T GOT A SCROLL WHEEL BUT HAVE THE MICROSOFT 'BROWSER'

TRY THE FOLLOWING FOR EXTRA LARGE MAGINIFICATION:

I have the same problem. Try going to Tools, Internet options, then on the bottom right side of the page, click accessibility. Put a check mark in the box that says "ignore font sizes specified on web pages. Now that I have that checked all the web pages that were small are now at the size I can read. If that doesn't work I know another thing. I will check back. Connie

I use a program called Easy Read which puts a + and- on your tool bar which you click on to magnify a page etc.

Also Ctrl+ increases size and Ctrl- decreases size. Just hold the Ctrl down and each time you hit + it gets bigger.

I can enlarge the print but when I go to print it out, it prints the small size
instead of what I increased it to.

How can I make the larger print size print large?

Thank you.
