Personally I would like to get rid of some of these light colored fonts. A lot of members have a very difficult time reading them

Yes I bet that's true. I was just experimenting. I won't actually be using the green. I agree it's too light.

I increased size if I knew Doll was reading my Amazon posts. She wasn't tech savvy and I knew she had eye issues.

You can still up the size on the individual posts like that if you wish to

Personally I didn't like a lot of individual users' font choices. Some of them were very small on my giant monitor, or the colours made it difficult to read.

@Lady Jane how are you accessing the forum? Phone, tablet, computer...? Perhaps we can help.

I definitely prefer it this way. Some people's choice of fonts can be difficult to read and very distracting. I imagine people with dyslexia would also find many of the font choices difficult. Phones and browsers allow you to increase font size or use a zoom, so I don't see why that aspect should be too much of an issue?

I’m with you, several font choices were un-readable on my screen. I believe almost every platform has a font or a zoom increase for reading preferences.

I use a laptop for main computer work and fun. The font size on AA is somewhat easier to see so not problem in daytime. At night I am on a Kindle Fire tablet as is my routine for many years. On the Kindle Fire tablet the printing is too small for me to see. Yes if I use my hands to enlarge the screen I can read and that is what I must do for any thread. Thank you for attempting to help, that is appreiated.

Have you tried to increase the font size on your tablet to something bigger? I don’t have one here to test it on, hubby’s is in moving Layla land and my mothers is at the other house still.
You can try it by going into the settings menu then the Display and Sounds menu, in there you should see a font section where you can adjust the size. Might be worth a shot!

The size is adjusted by touch on kindle fire tablet. I can adjust it better if i am reading a book on kindle. Display setting does have a font size adjustment which i have set on huge already. It only makes the keyboard letters larger, not the words on a page.

On Kindle there should be a way to increase it on the browser too:

Make Webpages On the Kindle Fire Silk Browser Easier to Read

Making text actually readable on the Silk Browser of the Kindle Fire HD can be tricky. Here's all you need to do to make the text (and other items) on a page larger.

This is for the kindle fire web browser

 

[Lady Jane]

I have the newest version and there is no WEB where shown. A new one coming out soon. Thanks for looking that up. I will continue to try. If all else fails i can speak to the kindle fire techs over phone.

 

[itzmered]

Web is your browser. Most browsers have these settings

 

[Lady Jane]

Yes i understand that and web is not with the other things listed. I can get a screen shot and post it from my laptop if you want. Give me a few.

 

[itzmered]

How do you get on the forum

 

[Lady Jane]

Silk Browser. I have it bookmarked in this. Its the round white circle with orange stripe next to amazon.

 

[itzmered]

That is what you need to go to and follow the instructions I posted above

 

[Lady Jane]

I think those instruction are meant for the kindle fire device i have kindle fire tablet which is quite different. Sorry i did not specify this before. Thanks again for helping.

 

[Lady Jane]

I found the font scale and ran it up to the largest however it does not effect size here. Boooo

 

[itzmered]

Have you gone into settings on the silk browser?

 

[Lady Jane]

Yes i found it on left top of silk browser and then assessability. There is a text scaler which is set to the largest possible. Then in small print Force Enable Zoom which means override a website request to prevent zooming in. This is checked to turn on.
