An Extremely Dumb Question


Recommended Posts

I gotta be honest; I'm visually impaired. I rely on a screenreader to get me through the Net about 70% of the time (I have full sight in one eye; the other...works when it wants to).

However though it seems like my reader won't read what I'm typing on the forums, and only reads replies when I highlight text, which can be incredibly annyoing at times.

Is there any possible way that I can possibly make the font larger? Like...the way it was on the old board, which was just PERFECT (with few exceptions)?

I'm sorry if this sounds incredibly stupid and/or off the wall.

No, I'm not shouting. Just making it easier for you to read. You can always use Mozilla (or Netscape) as your default browser. For Mozilla, it's under

View->Text Zoom.

You can then adjust the size of the font's displayed (all fonts including the replies' fonts). That should make things much better. For IE, it's a tad bit different as it reads style sheets first and ignores the rest. But anyways, it's under

Tools->Internet Options->'General' tab->Accessibility. Click on "Ignore font sizes specified on Web pages".

Now you can adjust your font size settings under

View->Text size

Hope that helps.
