Hi,

I am using a 1920 X 1200 monitor and the problem is the text is too small to read when using programs like Firefox, IE, MS Word, Outlook that default to using Cascading Style Sheets.

Does anyone here have a CSS that is pre-made that have larger fonts as "standard" and optimized to 1920 X 1200 screens?

Thanks

To adjust the font size for better readability on a 1920 x 1200 monitor in programs like Firefox, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Word, and Outlook, you can create a custom CSS style sheet. Here's an example of CSS code that you can use to increase the font size:
CSS:
body { font-size: 16px; /* You can adjust this value as needed */ }
You can apply this CSS code through browser extensions or settings in the programs you mentioned. Here's how you can do it:

For Browsers like Firefox and Internet Explorer:​

  1. Firefox:
    • Install a browser extension like "Stylus" that allows you to write custom CSS for websites.
    • Create a new style in Stylus for the desired website or all websites using the provided CSS code.

    []Internet Explorer:
    • Similar to Firefox, you can use browser extensions like "UserCSS" to apply custom styles.

      For Microsoft Word and Outlook:​

    [
    ]Word:
    • Go to File > Options > Advanced.
    • Scroll down to the "General" section.
    • Click on the "Web Options" button.
    • In the "Fonts" tab, you can set the font and size for displayed web content.
  2. Outlook:
    • Unfortunately, Outlook doesn't have a direct way to apply custom CSS for emails. However, you can set your default font size for composing emails. Go to File > Options > Mail > Stationery and Fonts to customize your font settings. By setting the font size in the CSS provided above, you can enhance readability on your 1920 x 1200 monitor for these programs. Adjust the font-size value (16px in this example) to your preference for optimal readability. Feel free to adjust the CSS code further to suit your specific preferences and needs. Let me know if you need any more assistance with this!
