Changing text size

The text size on this website can be increased or reduced to suit the web user.  This can be done using browser tools or by using the reduce font size or increase font size buttons A A displayed in the top right hand corner of each page.  By repeatedly pressing the right A button, the text on the current web page will progressively increase.  By repeatedly pressing the left A button, the text on the current web page will progressively decrease.  Navigating to another page will automatically reset the default font size.

Most browsers also provide a function to resize the text on a web page.  In Internet Explorer this is done by selecting View then Text Size to view a range of text size options.  Selecting a text size option will retain this setting for all pages viewed.  In Firefox select View and then Zoom to access the Zoom in and Zoom out controls.  The Firefox zoom function can also be activated via the keyboard by using 'Ctrl' + '+' or 'Ctrl' + '-'.

Macintosh computers may also have an independent zoom in and zoom out function. This is activated by using 'Ctrl' + 'mouse scroll'.
