Change your fonts

​

In Explorer

​

• Go to the Tools menu, and at the bottom of the menu is Internet Options, click here and you get the General page where there is an option-button at the bottom called Fonts.

• Click this and against 'Language script' select 'Latin based' and then select your default typeface.

• Simply to change the text size, go to the View menu, and in the middle is Text Size, which allows you to change the size of the typeface.

• If your mouse has a wheel, a limited amount of text size changing is possible by holding the Control key down while rotating the wheel.

• For more information, see: Internet Explorer.

​

In Netscape/Mozilla

​

• Go to the Firefox menu, and you will find Preferences; under the category Content, select the Default Font and Size.

• The Advanced button offers various further refinements concerning spacing, Serif and Sans-serif fonts, and Character Encoding.

• Since many web-page authors specify their own font preferences, you will probably want to leave the box to 'Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above' checked.

• Netscape/Mozilla also allows you to change the size of the font from the keyboard by pressing "Control +" (Control at the same time as the plus sign) or "Control -" (the minus sign/hyphen); you can also do it from the View menu, using Text Zoom.

• For more information, see: Netscape, Mozilla.

Mozilla Firefox, however, has taken on Explorer characteristics, so you need to

• Go to the Tools menu, and at the bottom you will find Options. This should take you first to the General section and after that, matters are more straightforward:

• On the right-hand side there is a button for 'Fonts & Colors' and the available options are a slimmed-down version of Mozilla/Netscape.

• In the 'Fonts for' select 'Western', in the 'Proportional' category specify whether you prefer the default to be a Serif (such as Times) or Sans-serif (such as Arial) typeface and its basic size, and then select your choice of Fonts in the various categories (those that will affect this site are the Serif and Sans-serif ones).

• Since many web-page authors specify their own font preferences, you will probably want to leave the box to 'Allow documents to use other fonts' checked.

• Like Netscape/Mozilla, Firefox also allows you to change the size of the font immediately by pressing "Control +" (Control at the same time as the plus sign) or "Control -" (the minus sign/hyphen); you can also do it from the View menu.

• For more information, see: Firefox.

• Another problem that seems to be specific to Firefox is that sometimes certain characters are not recognized and appear on the screen as little white question-marks in black square diamonds—these include ‘smart’ quotations and non-breaking spaces.

​

In Opera

​

• Go to the File menu, and at the bottom you will find Preferences (or press 'Alt P');

• under the category 'Fonts and colors', make sure that the first option, 'Normal', is highlighted, then go to the button alongside, 'Choose', which allows you to change the base font, so that there shouldn't be any need to change the other categories.

• To change the text size immediately, simply press the plus sign (+) or the the minus sign/hyphen (-), or go to the View menu, and the option Zoom.

• For more information, see: Opera.
