Practical accessibility and technical information to help you get the most from the Iriss website

Changing text sizes

All web browsers have some built-in provision for altering the size of text on screen. Normally this is achieved from the keyboard using the following shortcuts:

  • CONTROL (CMD on Mac) and '+' to make text larger/zoom in
  • CONTROL (CMD on Mac) and '-' to make text smaller/zoom out
  • CONTROL (CMD on Mac) and '0' to return to the default setting

In some legacy browsers (such as Internet Explorer 6) it's necessary to adjust text sizes from a menu. To do this, select 'View / Text Size' from the menubar and increase/decrease the size of the text.
