dear people,

how do i adjust font size on my screen? I have tried the System->Preferences->Appearences->Fonts & changed the values but to no avail.

This problem is mainly on (all of ) my web browsers (firefox, chromiun, opera). There seems to be a common problem on all of these and hence there should be a better way insead of editing font sizes on all of them individually.

Please help me. I shall be greatfull.

Firefox will allow web pages to set their own fonts. You can override that. In Firefox preferences, go to the Content tab, pick Advanced and start changing things gently, starting with unchecking "Allow pages to choose their own fonts". Some pages don't like being forced, but I think you have to do this in the applications.
