Printing from internet source too small to read. Have to use Internet Explorer to print.

When using the Firefox browser, printing from an internet source, print font is too small to be readable. Can go to Internet Explorer to print from an internet source and the size of the printed font is readable.

In Preview>Preferences>PDF tab, is Greeking Threshold ste, and/or Anti-Alias text & Line art? Images Tab... Actual size, Respect DPI?
If you want to Print better Rez, dont print from Safari, but download it, load it in Preview, don't save it, it'll go to 72-150 DPI, just Print from there... any diff?
To save PDFs in better resolution from Preview, try these Quartz Filters courtesy Jerome Colas...

  • Whenever I print from my emails or internet the print is too small to read. How do I fix this?

    I have HP  officejet pro 8600 Cannot figure out how to enlarge the print.
    Everytime I print from email's and internet, the print comes out too small.
    I have tried going into preferences and it doesn't give me a choice to
    change the size of my print. HELP

    Hi,
    Which browser are you using ? You can "make" the output bigger using something like this (Firefox)
    Regards.

  • Print too small to read from printer with Page shrink on 30%

    When printing some emails on Xerox 7225 the print is too small to read even with page shrink on 30%. latest email is from an AOL account and header lines do wrap. This problem is new.

    Select the email
    'File' > 'Print Preview'
    You can change the size of the font by changing the 'Scale'.
    increase the Scale to increase the font.
    so start by selecting: Scale = 100%
    When all looks ok, click on 'Print' button

  • File printing and icons for folders in Bridge CS5 - too small to read

    Got CS5 and am trying to use Bridge. The folders are too small to read and the print with them too small. The slider at the bottom of the page enlarges the space but the files and printing stay the same size. If I open one the images will enlarge with the slider but I don't want to waste time opening each file to see what is in them. I want to be able to read wha the file is and open the right one first try.
    Tried calling "tech support" Those jackasses can't speak English. On hold for 3 hours overall after getting someone, getting cut off and having to call again. I hope Pakistan nukes India and solves that problem.
    When I finally got through the guy told me my Photoshop copy was not registered. Funny, it was last week when it had problems. Then I try changing the pasword and it says it did it, but won't accept it.
    I hate computers.
    So, anyone know how to get this damn probram to make the folders and printing big enough to read without my having to get up to the screen with a magnifying glass like Sherlock Holmes? The screen is a 22inch graphic arts monitor and I don't have this problem with any other programs. Not Breezebrowser, Not Auto Pano Pro, not Photo Mechanic. Just Bridge with this overpriced and overhyped photoshiz crap.

    Small, and uncustomizable, fonts has been a com
    plaint in PhotoShop also. 
    Send in a bug report, they do read those, and maybe if enough users complain they will modify the program.

  • Print output too small to read

    Different pages are scaled between about 90% and 25%,
    resulting in text that's too small to read. I don't see any
    controls that allow one to seet the scale factor.

    I am having the same problem. I created my Flashpaper
    document on a Mac in OS 10.3. My file looks fine in the browser,
    but when I print it, the document scales. I am using the Flash
    Player 9 plugin and this problem seems to exist on any browser I
    use on my Mac (Safari, Firefox, Opera). The flashpaper documents on
    Adobe's site are doing the same thing to me. Please let me know if
    anyone has a solution. Does this happen in anyone else's
    environment (different browser/platform)?

  • Thunderbolt - everything too small to read at high res

    I want to use my Thunderbolt at full resolution but everything is just too small to read without eventually getting a headache !  I bought a large screen to make reduce the strain.
    Is there a way around this?

    There is a fix!
    I have a 30 inch monitor running at 2560 x 1600 with my Mac Mini and the outrageous $99 adapter from Apple. (Found it new for $60 on eBay.)
    My menu bars and Google Chrome's tabs and bookmark bar were both way too small - like 4 point!
    TinkerToolSystem, (not TinkerTool) allows you to go into hidden preferences and re-set to "HiDPI." Afer making the adjustment which doubled my DPI, I had to choose half the resolution 1280 x 800, but with no loss of real resolution! Things did get bigger elsewhere but I was able to adjust most of them. Hooray! GL!
    Download the Evaluation copy of TinkerToolSystem. You get to open it 5 times for free.

    About halfway down, under "Screen."
    For Snow Leopard
    By default, Mac OS X assumes that the display screen is rendering graphics with a resolution of 72 pixels per inch. This policy was taken over from the classic Mac OS. While this basic assumption was true when the Macintosh was introduced more than 20 years ago, today's display devices often have a much higher resolution. The pixels have become smaller, so your screen may actually use e.g. 100 pixels per inch. In practice, this means that graphical elements, for example fonts, will be displayed too small, so a 12 point font selected in an application might no longer match the actual size of a 12 point font printed in a book when you compare screen and book side by side.
    To accommodate these changes, Mac OS X is capable of using arbitrary display resolutions. TinkerTool System allows you to change the resolution between 36 and 216 pixels per inch. If the screen display stays the same, the screen contents will be displayed larger when you set a higher resolution, and smaller when you set a lower resolution.
    For Lion and Mt.Lion
    Apple has removed the feature from the operating system that allowed to control the physical resolution of screen output by an infinitely variable factor. As of 10.7 or later, this function was replaced by the feature HiDPI (High Number of Dots per Inch) which allows to double the physical resolution only. This means you can select between the discrete values 72 ppi and 144 ppi (or 288, 578, … ppi in the far future). Other magnification steps or scaling down are no longer available. The HiDPI strategy allow OS X to be used on ultra-high-resolution screens (“retina displays”).
    Enabling the HiDPI feature requires two steps. The first step is to unlock HiDPI mode via TinkerTool System. The second step is to select one of the HiDPI display resolutions on the pane Displays ofSystem Preferences. Perform the following steps to work with HiDPI display modes:
    Select the item Screen in the pane System.
    Switch between the two possible modes Hide HiDPI resolutions and Display HiDPI resolutions.
    Log out to let the change take effect.
    When you log in again, you can launch System Preferences, go to Displays and choose one of the HiDPI settings shown in the table Display > Resolutions.
    WARNING: The display resolution is a very critical setting. If you set the resolution too high, the windows can become so large that they no longer fit on screen. This means you can no longer see or control all parts of some applications which can make your system unusable!
    To use the system with 144 ppi, a screen with at least 2048 x 1536 pixels is strongly recommended, because OS X applications are designed by the rule that they can expect windows to have a minimum size of 1024 x 768 pixels at 72 ppi.
    The Retina Displays may lead to a software update and then we will all be happy.

  • One web site lettering is too small to read. how do I enlarge it?

    I have a new Toshiba Satellite with incoveinent touch pad that my left hand seems to rest on while I am typing. While trying to learn a new Blackboard sight, the type suddenly began to shrink too small to read. I have logged off, shut down and searched for a way to enlarge, but have not found solution. I need this sight to be readable for 2 courses that started yesterday.

    Reset the zoom level for that domain, see this: <br />

  • New messages in Mail too small to read

    In the last couple of weeks new messages are too small to read. Changing orientation and zooming makes them readable. Anybody know what happened?

    It seems the option was removed from iOS 4.0 onwards. Helpful! You can now use the enlarge text option under Settings > General > Accessibility, though this will increase text size across a number of the (built in/Apple only) apps not just mail.
    As the problem has only just started happening I would be tempted to assume it's a glitch. Have a go at:
    1) Ending all apps completely with a double tap if the home button, followed by closing all of the running apps, particularly mail!
    2) Then give the phone a true turn off, press and hold the power button until you get the red power off option.
    3) Turn it on, if the issue persists, try turning your mail account off on the iPhone (Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars) > Highlight your Account > Slide the Mail option to 'Off'. This will temporarily make your email in available on the device.
    4) Run the mail app again. It should prompt you for a new mail account. Ignore and return to the previous step / menu.
    5) Slide mail back to 'On'.
    Let me know if that makes any difference.

  • Canpt print to 8500 from Internet Explorer

    Win7, IE8, 64bit vsrsion.  Ever since I started using the 8500 I have not been able to print from Internet explorer.  Dell desktop hardwired to the wireless router.  8500 connected via wireles.  I've reinstalled the software to no avail.  I can print from IE from my other two XP computers just fine (both wireless).  Any suggestions?  I'm getting tired of workarounds. 
    This is my second post - help please.
    Thanks

    I have a HP Pavillion Slimlines5412p-b and a HPOfficejet pro 8500 premier.  I cannot get the printer to accept the messages I send from the computer.  Does Windows 7 keep that from happening?  It may even be something with Comcast, it seems to be less likely to print since I had my phone service connected through them.  I get my Internet Service, cable TV and phone service from Comcast.   What do I need to do to correct the problem.
    I had friends tell me it is hooked up correctly but they don't know why it will not print.
    Also there is something that comes on the screen that says I need a 32 bit something to read some of the stuff I get.  I am told it is not available with the 64 bit that is on the computer.
    Also there are things that come up that says I need the latest version of Adobe to read some of my stuff.  I cannot seem to get the latest version of Adobe to come up.
    As you can tell I am not computer literate and probably should not be even trying.  I am not a quitter, tho.  Thanks

  • I am unable to print (any website) from the latest Firefox, but print fine from Internet Explorer. Using Windows Vista on a desktop machine.

    printer advances page and spits it out with either nothing or a single garbled line printed on it instead of a whole web page. This is independent of which web site and even happens with web sites that have a specific PRINT or PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION button. Printing is fine from Internet Explorer. Unsure about Chrome. Printing from Firefox worked fine until I downloaded newest version. Operating system is Windows Vista on a 64 bit desktop computer.

    Try the '''reset''' described here: <br />

  • I can no longer print web site pages from my Firefox browser. I can still print web site pages from Internet Explorer.

    I tried the steps in the Firefox support area of resetting Print.Print_printer but that did not work. Whenever I try tp print a webpage the print preview page is blank and it freezes up. I then have to close the browser and start over. I can print webpages from Internet Explorer.

  • When i browse with firefox the search results come up too small to read and I can't find any menu buttons (ie, can't find anywhere to zoom in or the view menu)

    Have just got a new computer. Downloaded firefox as it has always been better than explorer and I've never had trouble on previous computers. It seemed to download okay. I set google as my home page. When I type a search phrase into it, the results page comes up too small to read. It's like it's normal but miniature. You know how google has google images, googlevideos, google maps across the top of it, if I click on the minature 'images' word, it comes up with the google images page but also very tiny. But if I click the mini 'videos' word, the videos search page is normal sized and so is the maps page.
    It's driving me crazy because the initial page seems okay but there's no normal google stuff on that either, and then when I try to search for something, it goes tiny.

    Hello Ashley.
    You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    On the other hand, you may have Firefox configured to display fonts like that. Check Tools > Options > Content > Fonts & Colors and see that the font size is not too small. In my experience, sizes bellow 16 will be way to small to read.

  • Adobe Reader 11 is unable to open PDF's from Internet Explorer 11

    My boss is currently operating on the Adobe Reader 11 and often needs to use Internet Explorer 11 for certain programs.
    Unfortunately the Adobe Reader is unable to open PDFs from Internet Explorer and often comes up with a message telling us that the file is either damaged, no longer exists or that there is a problem with the syntax.  She does not have this problem with Google Chrome.  We have tried several ideas regarding the security settings but nothing seems to correct the problem.  Could someone shed some light on how to fix this error?

  • Display is too small to read

    I opened Windows in Bootcamp and the icons are there but the fonts are all too small to read. I can't click on anything to fix it because I don't know what I'm clicking on. There must be a mix-up in the display settings but I can't navigate to where I need to go to fix it. Is there a way to fix it?

    I opened Windows in Bootcamp.
    What version of Windows do you have, Dennis? XP, Vista or 7?
