Q: 'Zoom Text only' is gone !!

Oct 14, 2016 1:18 PMby Chaney01,Agreed, and it's a huge accessibility problem. I have tried the option>view>make text bigger and unfortunately it's functioning the same as page zoom. There is a difference between zoom and large text. When you zoom, all coding - all boxes - columns - features, everything on the page zooms. When you default a large minimum text size, only the text is larger and everything else remains in the confines of its original size. I cannot comfortably use Safari right now because I can't see. Just because I zoom in doesn't mean I can see any better, because now the page size is warped. Minimum font sizing is a standard and I just can't understand what would make them change it.

I don't see that well either and I have the gonzo huge hires iMac so even a normal 12 or 14 pt font looks like ants. Is apple run by teenagers now?

The last 2 digits (14) can be changed to your desired size. Then hit return. Reopen Safari. If you aren’t using Sierra, hold down the option/alt key, then click on the View menu to select Make Text Bigger or Male Text Smaller.
