It is especially valuable tool for <strong>visually impaired people<\/strong> and <strong>wide screen<\/strong> users.<\/p>\n<p>There are three places that you can manage the global <strong>font size<\/strong> and <strong>font family<\/strong> of <strong>Firefox<\/strong> via <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong>. Add-on Bar icon, toolbar button and Tools menu option. All <strong>font size<\/strong> and <strong>font family<\/strong> changes are instantly applied and they are saved permanently and through sessions.<\/p>\n<p>Different from add-ons that enlarge and reduce text on web pages, <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> changes the <strong>font size<\/strong> and <strong>font family<\/strong> in all windows, menus, toolbars,  etc within <strong>Firefox<\/strong> itself.<\/p>\n<p>It was initially created to be an <strong>accessibility<\/strong> aid for persons with <strong>visual impairments<\/strong> and for those without perfect <strong>eyesight<\/strong>, but it&#8217;s also useful for Firefox users with  high monitor resolution settings and <strong>wide screens<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>While <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> was written to be used with <strong>Firefox<\/strong> default theme, it does work with other non-default themes, but you may come across issues where some elements within <strong>Firefox<\/strong> retain the (non-default) <strong>font size<\/strong> setting that the theme developer chose for their theme.<\/p>\n<p>There are three places that you can manage the global <strong>font size<\/strong> and <strong>font family<\/strong> of <strong>Firefox<\/strong> via <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><strong> \u2022 Add-on Bar Button<\/strong>: Click on the <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> button to open up <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> settings panel. <\/p>\n<p><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Add-on Bar resides at the bottom of the Firefox window. Add-on Bar is the old status-bar. If <strong>Add-on Bar<\/strong> is not visible, you should activate it. To do so, choose <strong>View<\/strong> menu from <strong>Firefox Menu Bar<\/strong> and hover over the <strong>Toolbars<\/strong> option and click on the <strong>Add-on Bar<\/strong> option if there is no tick. If you are <strong>Windows 7<\/strong> user, you should click on the <strong>orange<\/strong> Firefox button at the top of the window and hover over the <strong>Options<\/strong> and click on the <strong>Add-on Bar<\/strong> option if there is no tick.<\/p>\n<p><strong> \u2022 Tools Option<\/strong>: Choose <strong>Tools<\/strong> menu from <strong>Firefox Menu Bar<\/strong> and click on the <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> option. It will open up <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> settings panel.<\/p>\n<p><strong> \u2022 Toolbar Button<\/strong>: It is optional so it is not visible as default. If you want to place a <strong>Toolbar Button<\/strong>, <strong>right<\/strong> click on a toolbar button like <strong>Home Button<\/strong>, then choose <strong>Customise<\/strong> option. A window will pop up. Find the <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> button, then click and drag the <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> button in the toolbar of your choice and drop the button.  Clicking on this <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> button will open up <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> settings panel.<\/p>\n<p>In <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> settings panel, <strong>Font<\/strong> section provides <strong>fonts<\/strong> currently installed on your operating system. With this option set, you will be able to fine tune your <strong>font family<\/strong> of <strong>Firefox<\/strong> theme.<\/p>\n<p>In <strong>Size<\/strong> section, simply select a <strong>font size<\/strong> value (from 6 to  80 pixels) and the changes will be applied instantly and globally.<\/p>\n<p>A <strong>Normal<\/strong> (default) value is also provided as well as an indicator next to the currently applied <strong>font size<\/strong> and <strong>font family<\/strong> setting so that you can reset to the default <strong>Firefox<\/strong> values.<\/p>\n<div id=\"bdlsb\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-5573168052662717\";\n\/* 336x280, created 08\/11\/10 *\/\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"0852828743\";\ngoogle_ad_width = 336;\ngoogle_ad_height = 280;\n\/\/-->\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\nsrc=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p>Known Issues:<br \/>\nPlease keep  in mind that this extension was designed for use with  default  theme of <strong>Firefox<\/strong> and the fact that it works with non-default ones is more of a  bonus than the primary goal and function of it.<\/p>\n<p>Compatibility issues  found when tested with 32 Firefox themes were minor overall, but a few  were major, while others had no compatibility issues at all.<\/p>\n<p>Any  compatibility issues will mostly be dependent on the theme (or  extension) developer&#8217;s CSS value choices for any given element.<\/p>\n<p>The  <strong>font size<\/strong> in some elements in non-default themes remains unchanged.<\/p>\n<p>For  example and through testing, the font size of tab text was unchanged by <strong>Theme Font &#038; Size Changer<\/strong> (in some themes).<\/p>\n<p>Repeating backgrounds:<br \/>\nWith  some non-default themes you may encounter repeating backgrounds (on  toolbars, etc) when the font size is increased. Increasing the <strong>font size<\/strong> also increases the height of other elements (like toolbars) and so if  specific CSS properties are not set to prevent backgrounds from repeating, then a background will repeat itself which you may find to be undesirable.<\/p>\n<p>Text bleeding out of elements or being cut off:<br \/>\nYou  may notice this in some themes such as on dialog buttons, drop down  menus, and tabs.<\/p>\n<p>No known compatibility issues with the following  themes:<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"entryanchor\" href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/4908\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>NASA  Night Launch<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"entryanchor\" href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/5394\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Kempelton<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"entryanchor\" href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/5448\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Kempelton  Large<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"entryanchor\" href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/7\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Qute<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"entryanchor\" href=\"http:\/\/www.tom-cat.com\/mozilla\/firefox.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Mostly  Crystal<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"entryanchor\" href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/7517\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Silvermel<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"entryanchor target=\" href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/122\/\"><strong>Walnut  for Firefox<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"entryanchor\" href=\"https:\/\/addons.mozilla.org\/en-US\/firefox\/addon\/13138\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Ambient  Fox Xyan<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"entryanchor\" href=\"http:\/\/www.spuler.us\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Themes  by Aaron Spuler<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There are no known compatibility issues with <strong>Personas<\/strong> skins.<\/p>\n<p>Special thanks to <a class=\"entryanchor\" href=\"http:\/\/www.accessfirefox.org\/AFx_About_Ken_Saunders.php\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Ken Saunders<\/strong><\/a> for the priceless contribution and testing efforts.<\/p>\n<div id=\"donationbox\">\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\">\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"cmd\" value=\"_s-xclick\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"hosted_button_id\" value=\"SVZP6KTBSGKXQ\" \/><input type=\"image\" src=\"wp-content\/themes\/barisderin\/images\/btn_donateCC_LG.gif\" border=\"0\" name=\"submit\" alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"wp-content\/themes\/barisderin\/images\/pixel.gif\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/form>\n<p>If you find the application useful please support my development efforts.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations!
