Cannot get the font size to enlarge when on sites with very small print.

Although there is a place to enable Firefox to enlarge small print, it never works (except on this site, of course). A number of sites I visit have very small print and are hard to read, including AOL mail. Wondering if it is a problem with my computer or with Firefox for me. I have tried the settings change (no response on it), and also the AOL mail settings. The settings says that you can put in the maximum size by hand and it will automatically do it, but not for me. With poor vision, it would be nice to be able to have it at least near the size that has come through on here.

The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.

Try the Default FullZoom Level extension:
