Hold down the Ctrl key and press the + key. Press the - key to make it smaller. Or you can hold down the Ctrl key and turn the mouse wheel.

Or in Firefox:

Open browser to Garden Web>Tools>Options>Content tab>Select the size font you wish (18 is default)>OK. GW will then be in the new size with other sites remaining at default.

DA

...or get the NoSquint add-on for your Firefox browser and you can set the optimum size (text and images) for every site you visit. In addition, it will automatically remember when you revisit a site so you only have to set it once.

I dont have firefox I have explorer and aol but I had the larger fonts this morning !!!
cant do the control + key(is that the one avoe the = key?

That's the key. Just hold down the Ctrl key and press that key, You don't have to worry about the shift key, just Ctrl and the one with the + and = signs.

Or, while on a webpage, hold the control button down and rotate the wheel on your mouse, up or down

I just had the same problem as Minnie. I haven't downloaded any new programs. I did the control/mousewheel trick and all is good now.
Can someone tell me what made all my pages and print go small for no apparent reason?

Who knows? I have had it happen, too. Chalk it up to Gremlins. Here's an off topic story. I use a Novatel MiFi device to connect to the Internet through 3G service. Suddenly, last evening, after a brief thunderstorm, the color of the on/off button has changed from bright green to bright blue. Go figure.

The control thing doesn't work for me
Sorry Steve I know how you feel I cant figure it out either. it is something to do with the Internet explorer I think
Anyway after talking to tow techs which The control thing doesn't work for me
Sorry Steve I know how you feel I cant figure it out either. it is something to do with the Internet explorer I think

you did not mention if this is xp or windows 7 but doing a real quick system restore to the day before it happened might fix it and it won't hurt anything. here are the directions for xp.
System Restore, accessible by clicking [Start] [All Programs] [Accessories] [System Tools] [System Restore].
then Choose from the bulleted options on the right you want to restore your computer to an earlier time.
The calendar on the left will have dates in bold. Selecting a day will show the restore points available for that date in the breakout to the right of the calendar. Select the restore point you want and click This would be the day before your fonts changed. Then click next to restore your computer to the earlier date and time. Your pc will reboot just leave it alone let it do it's thing. That is it you are done.
very very easy to do and all it does is put your settings back as they were on that date.

If you are using something other than xp let us know so we can give you the appropriate instructions.
