Johanna Report post Posted September 15, 2006 You can change the text size in IE with the scroll wheel and holding down the control key. If you don't have a scroll wheel on your mouse, you can also select "view" in Internet Explorer and change the size of the text. If you do change the text with your wheel, and can't get it back to where you had it, use the view button to restore your preference. Another hint for hard-to-see screens is to change the resolution display on your monitor. Most monitors these days are set at 1024X768, or higher, and most website are designed for 1024X768 viewing. If you right click on the desktop, choose"properties" then "settings", there is a slider that will allow you to adjust your screen resolution. (Try 800X600) If you don't like it, just change it back. If you have XP, click Start>Accessories>Accessibility and explore the options there. If you are having trouble seeing, Windows will narrate to you. If you are having trouble hearing, Windows will indicate sounds with text. You can also override websites with awkward backgrounds and silly fonts in Internet Explorer by clicking Tools> Internet Options> General tab> accessibility button (located on the bottom right) or create a style sheet if you need to view things a certain way. Hope this is useful for someone. Johanna Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
