every page that opens is too small to read- even typing this text, is very small to see. Almost impossible to select these very tiny buttons on websites. I am forever typing Ctrl ++ to beef up the size- and every new page I have to do it again. This does not occur on Explorer, but I do NOT wish to use Explorer! How do I permanently change the text sizing in Firefox?

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:

Or the NoSquint extension:

Older versions of Firefox used to remember the last page zoom level set by the user for every domain visited - even after you restarted the browser! This was a great feature, I wish the newer versions had it.
