Help with windows readability ...............ts

My eyesight is getting to be no match for site designers using ever smaller

fonts.

Is there some procedure to force larger fonts?

 

Also, in the acessability area, I see mention of a "style" sheet that sounds

hopeful, but I can not find any detailed help for creating and using style

sheets in IE-7

 

Help or tips appreciated. Thanks

If your using IE7, down in the lower right the is a dropdown to change the

zoom level, not sure if it's there in older versions.

Try hitting WindowsLogoKey + U and enabling magnifier. then magnify what you

want.

You can increase the default screen font size in Control

Panel\Screen\Settings\General tab\Click the drop-down window, and change the

PPP size to 120%.. or use Customized Settings for the size you'd like to

type in, you have 125, 150 and 200% available but you can type in any size

in between 101 and 150 (I would not advice going over 150%)... Larger font

sizes may require additional resolution settings, and your internet browning

fonts may have to be reconfigured in Internet Options\General\Accesibility.

Thanks for the tip Renaldo, but here there is no "screen" item on my control

panel.

 

Neither is there any "zoom" icon on my system tray.

 

However - I did locate the zoom feature on the "page" itme in IE-7 so I do

have something that works.

 

Best regards, Ted

Try control panel---display---appearance tab---large fonts.

Sorry, I meant Display (my OS is in Spanish)... You can also access the

Display properties with a right click on the Desktop background. Select

Properties\Settings\Advanced Options\General\Drop-down window.

 

 

For the zoom try the Magnifier in Start\All

programs\Accesories\Accesibility\Magnifier.
