open the browser go to the drop down folder VIEW then FONT then select the font size u want. its probably on largest. or if u have a scroll mouse and ur on the browser u can hold down the CTRL key and use the scroll button.

What if your font is in all italics? I checked all over but i couldnt find how to change it back to normal - so i had to stick with italics. =[

I found that section but its only fonts, not font styles. Of course, i could be missing something. Ive gotten used to italic font everywhere though.

chrome, firefox,opera, ie11, edge, safari. these are the mainly supported browsers these days. I did some web development for web marketing companies, and those were the browsers they specified to ensure full mobile responsiveness, and will likely yield the best experiences.

edit: phone decided to put this ancient thread at the top. sorry for the Necro.

Which version of windows is mom using? XP? Vista?

Microsoft discontinued support for XP two years ago. No more updates. No more security patches. All the major browser companies have also ceased development of their products for the XP platform. This will happen very soon for Vista as well. Mom needs to get a new computer and move up to a modern operating sysem.
