Changing Text Size With Internet Explorer

If you would like to be able to change the size of the print on web pages and you use Internet Explorer, follow these steps.
First, you must instruct IE to ignore font sizes that the web page's creators have specified. To do this, pull down the "Tools" menu and pick "Internet Options." There, choose "Accessibility Options" by pressing Alt-E. Then, check the boxes labeled "Ignore font styles specified on Web pages" and "Ignore font sizes specified on Web pages." Select "OK" in the dialog box and again in the "Internet Options" dialog box. This will return you to the page you were viewing.

Now, whenever you want to increase or decrease the size of the print on a web page, pull down the "View" menu (Alt-V) and select "Text Size" (X). Here, you can choose any option, ranging from "Largest" to "Smallest." You may be tempted to hit "Largest" again and again. Unfortunately, this will not provide any additional increases in type size.
