    Yea, I know that going into View then Text size at times can increase the size of the font, but not all the time.

    I think by going into Tools, General and Fonts, there is various fonts that one can use, but how does one increase or decrease the size of fonts in Internet Explorer 7 permanently?

    I know IE8 Beta has 100% 125% etc, but how do we increase the size in IE7 and have it remain that way in all web pages? I'll appreciate your replies. Thanks!

    Thanks Miz for coming in on this. The suggestions really do not work. As to the View and Text size, this does not do the trick within IE7. In fact, on some web pages, I can click on Larger and nothing really happens at all within the webpage itself.

    Have you anything else in mind that one can do ...

    Only 2 ways I know of.
    1>Change desktop resolution.
    OR
    2>Open IE – Tools – Internet Options – Accessibility button – check, Ignore Font Sizes specified in webpages.
    That in itself may increase font size .
    Also changing text size under view or page should now work everywhere.
