How do I change the font size on my Intermet Explorer (ex. Yahoo homepage)?

Question

I've been noticing lately that the font size on my computer in general is tiny, almost to the point where I can't read it. I have about 20/25 vision which is decent but I mean the font size is ridiculous. I've tried changing the pixel dimensions via the "properties option when you right click on the screen but that doesn't do anything. But right now when I'm typing the "categorize the question" categories look perfectly normal. I have a feeling that whatever I should do ti fix this would be under that same "properties" options, I just don't know how to do it.

Answer 1

◙◙ LEARN COMPUTER BASICS ◙◙

◙ You should have read a great book called "Windows XP For Dummies" (no I'm not calling you a dummy) like I did when I first started. Except back then it was called "Windows 95 For Dummies". Trust me it's a great book and has lots of humor in it as well. There are two of them. You should get both of them. Each one has information the other doesn't have.

◙ Wouldn't it be a great feeling knowing that you will be able to do many things your friends cannot do? A little work now will save you tens of thousands of hours of doing unnecessary and repetitive tasks later. When most newcomers get on the World Wide Web they are in a really big hurry. Then they end up in chat rooms and forums wanting people like myself to explain it step-by-step. Read this book first. Then come back if you are still having a problem.

◙ Don't read this book from cover-to-cover. Instead use it as a reference book. Keep it open while experimenting with your computer. Click on every thing you see with both your right and left mouse button. Also experiment with the center mouse wheel. There are many things it can do.

◙ This book will teach you how to do many many things with your computer. Some of them are copy, paste, delete, highlighting text, making a file, saving a file, how to things to your system, and the list goes on and on. Getting on the web before you learn the basics of your computer is like trying to be a race car driver before you learn how to drive.

◙ Look for this book at your local public library. If they don't have it have them use their username and password to login to firstsearch.org where they can get any book from any library in the world. :)

If you have a scroll mouse, it's really simple.

1. Hold down control
2. While holding down "control," Scroll Up to increase the font size. Scroll down to decrease

If you don't have a scroll mouse, go to the top of the page. Look for view and then text size. Adjust it accordingly. You might need to close and open your browser, but that's all!

Answer 5

Go to view at the top of your homepage click view then text size then change your font.

Answer 6

If you are using Internet Explorer, go to "View". Scroll down to "Text Size". I usually have mine set on "medium" so click that. If that is not large enough for you, then click on "Larger" or "Largest". Hope this works.

Answer 7

Go to the top Explorer bar Selct Veiw, the menu will then drop down, selct text size, I beleive it's smallest to Largest.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Answer 10

Hold CTRL while turning the wheel on your mouse.
