Fontsize

By Faruk Ateş · Dec 15, 2005 ·

Have you ever wanted to be able to scale text to any size, even in Internet Explorer, without having to resort to using many, many CSS files to do it? With Fontsize you can. Have you ever wanted to add Zoom Layouts to your pages with absolute minimal effort? With Fontsize you can. Want to offer your users the ability to scale text without having it affect other websites? With Fontsize, you can.

Fontsize is a project that allows your users to change their text size up to any size, even in Internet Explorer. No longer are IE users limited to the five settings of the browser. Because Fontsize uses a simple cookie to keep track of a user's settings, it won't affect the display of other websites, where a large text size setting might disrupt the layout.

Additionally, Fontsize comes with complete, built-in Zoom Layout support. Zoom Layouts are layouts with (much) larger text size and higher contrast to aid legibility.

We're currently still working on putting the download for Fontsize together; it will be available shortly. Instructions are being held until then, too, in case we may change something that affects the way Fontsize is implemented.
