It sounds like this might not be data that volunteers could look at, if it's personal to your account.

First, could you check whether that section of the page is HTML or Flash content? The easiest way to check that is to right-click the text. If the context menu is short and mentions Adobe Flash or Shockwave Flash on the bottom line, it is being laid out by the Shockwave Flash plugin. Otherwise, Firefox is responsible.

Does it make any difference if you increase or decrease the zoom level on the page? To do that, you can hold down the Ctrl key on the keyboard and tap the + key (to enlarge) and the - key (to reduce).

For HTML content:

If text seem to be too large for the space allowed, two things to check are:

(1) Minimum font size

Setting a minimum font size sometimes causes text to exceed the available space in the page's layout. You can check that here:

  • Windows: "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options
  • Mac: "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences
  • Linux: "3-bar" menu button (or Edit menu) > Preferences
  • Any system: type or paste about:preferences into the address bar and press Enter/Return to load it

Scroll down to Fonts & Colors and click the Advanced button. Then set the selector at the top to Latin (assuming it's an English-language or European-language site).

If there is any value set for "Minimum font size" try lowering that to 9 or None.

(2) Text-only zoom

Zooming text but not images and fixed-size areas can distort the page layout. You can check for that setting here:

  • tap the Alt key or F10 key to activate the classic menu bar at the top of the window
  • Click View > Zoom, and if there is a checkmark next to Zoom Text Only, click that to "uncheck" it

Any improvement?
