Lousy fonts for certain web pages

[dannyboy@kubuntu]

I'm on a roll. My noobiness precedes me.



The fonts are horribly small for certain websites only like the thumbnail and like in blogger.com - in short whenever I need to input something. (Except this webpage)

My settings are set to the default:

• General: DejaVu Sans 9
• Fixed Width: DejaVu Sans Mono 9
• Toolbar: DejaVu Sans 9
• Menu: DejaVu Sans 9
• Window Title: DejaVu Sans 9
• Taskbar: DejaVu Sans 9
• Desktop: DejaVu Sans 9

somehow after installing Automatix2 and Nvidia these happened.

9 pt is a very small font--esp if you are running in a resolution like 1280x1024. after installing nvidia drivers the dpi settings of your video card are sometimes reported differently so fonts will change sizes.

I recommend increasing all of the fonts to something larger. In most web browsers there is also a 'minimum font size' option that can be set.

Try Konqueor - the most truly awesome program I've met. :-)

You can always press the CTRL + keys at the same time to bump fonts up on that one page if the default settings work for you every where else.

Thanks for the help guys.

However, this somehow changed the situation since when changing the default fonts - all the fonts also changes. I have to adjust the font sizes per website. For example in Google the fonts are large so I press CTRL and MINUS - In blogger it is so unreadable so I press CTRL and PLUS.

In some websites the fonts are readable, in some too small and in other websites they are just too big.
