Mozilla 1.4 - Change View to default to 120%


How can I change my preference to have Mozilla 1.4 to default to view at 120%?

I am using Mandrake 9.2 and have a 15 inch monitor with a setting of 1024x768. As you can guess, the text in Mozilla at the normal 100% view is too small. (It could be that I'm getting older and my vision is bad.). If I can default to the 120% view, things look much better.

Thanks,

Bob

Look at your /mozilla/defaults/pref directory if you have it or can find it, mine was in /usr/lib. Then open the all.js file and see if you can edit it to make your text larger. I know there is a line height option in it and text options.

Firefox here, but it should be similar:

Tools >> options >> >> web features >> fonts and colors

then, change the minimum font size to a number to satisfy your needs... 13 or 14 works for me .

Well! I was telling you the hard way! I have Mozilla and with a quick look saw fonts and colors in the edit>preferences>appearance. Just make your fonts as big as you like.
