You can always change the font size of your Web browser under the View menu, so it displays fonts in the size you want.

But then, some websites have tiny fonts and others have huge fonts, so this one-size-fits-all method might not always work.

What you can do in these situations is to zoom in and zoom out of a Web page instead of changing your settings.

For Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, hold down the Ctrl key and the plus sign (+) to zoom in. To zoom out, hold down the Ctrl key and the minus sign (-).

If you have a mouse with a scroll wheel, you can also hold down the Ctrl key and scroll up to zoom in or scroll down to zoom out.
