Hello,

I have just changed font size and unchecked "allows pages to choose their own font" in the option/content page and I still get different much smaller size text on some of the pages I go to? I have looked at all the solutions posted. Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Sonny

Type about:preferences#content<enter> in the address bar. Across from fonts and colors, press the Advanced button. On the bottom, turn on Allow Web Sites To Choose Their Own.

You can check for corrupted and duplicate fonts and other font issues: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/multipleappsquit.html - Font Book 2.0 Help: Checking for damaged fonts http://www.creativetechs.com/iq/garbled_fonts_troubleshooting_guide.html

NoSquint {web link} NoSquint allows you to adjust the text-only and full-page (both text and images) zoom levels as well as color settings both globally (for all sites) and per site.

Firefox 41 will allow icon fonts to work with the font setting in "Options/Preferences > Content > Colors" disabled.

You can set gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled on the about:config page to false to disable downloadable fonts.
