Alternatively, if you have a mouse with a scroll-wheel, hold down the ‘Control’ key (Ctrl) on your keyboard and use the mouse scroll-wheel to change the text size. 

Mozilla Firefox: Go to the ‘View’ menu at the top of the browser window. Select ‘Text size’ and select ‘Increase’ or ‘Decrease’ to go one size up or down. 

Google Chrome:  Go to the ‘Settings’ menu at the top right corner of the browser window. Select ‘Appearance’ and select your desired font size setting. 

Other browsers: For other browsers, please check the menus at the top of your browser window to find the text size controls.
