Safari tab font is too big

For some reason the font size on my Safari tabs is way too big. The webpage font sizes are ok, but on the tabs, and in the drop-down menus, it's huge. I'm using it on Windows 8. Please help!

Safari Font Size Too BIG

My daughter was on my computer and somehow changed the font size in safari and it is too big. I've tried the command/shift/- and and that is not changing the appearance (font is still too big). Any other suggestions? All webpages are affected.

Figured it out (thanks prior poster)
Go to Safari Preferences > Advanced.
Then adjust the size of type to display as you like it.
This one is set to 10, but you can up to 24 if you need to.
Hope this helps.

One hot mail e mail account the screen/font is too big

I have multiple e mail accounts that are linked. One of the accounts now has a font size too big for the screen. I cannot view anything without moving the bars up and down or left and right. Very annoying. When I go that e mail account with internet explorer the font size, screen is normal for that e mail account just like all the others. What do I do to get firefox to display the screen in default or normal size?

hi bee, thankyou for your trying to help, but unfortunately you missed a key word in my question. I am asking "mailbox" pane.
your answer is for the 3rd pane, the email message itself. i have no issue with that. properties has not changed in teh upgrade to maverick OS.
the 2nd pane (message listing) and 1st pane (listing of mailbox) HAS CHANGED in upgrade to maverick OSX.
what i learnt from apple support is:
pane 2: listing of what is in mailbox. -- was possible to change font in classic style. can continue to do this in maverick osx ONLY if you choose the option retain "classic style" under properties/view. else changing the setting in your screenshot has NO IMPACT in the new user interface. so that in my book is bad coding. defect.
pane 1: listing of mailbox -- not possible. and got uglier in maverick OS as now the font is even bigger. plain ugly and needs to be retified. i have about 10 mailboxes so all my screenspace is gone with just the mailboxes and requires scrolling to folders. boring....

I am using my first apple product, mac book pro. somehow i FIGURED OUT HOW TO INCREASE THE FONT FOR SEARCHES AND WEB PAGES, BUT THE FONT IS TOO BIG AND FOR THE LIFE OF ME I CAN NOT FIND WHERE TO GET THE SCREEN BACK TO NORMAL, HELP ANYONE?

I am new to Apple, somehow I figured out how to make font of Web pages bigger, but it is too big and I can't use sites properly. for the life of me I can not how to get my font size reduced. Help anyone? thank you, sbb

Probably command-minus will do the trick.

Mail box font is TOO BIG (maverick OSX)

hi:
i sadly just upgraded to the new osX. all sorts of problems and as usual no simple chat to ask direct questions.
even though i got it from app store. no chat options are showing... for me. apparently they are suppose to.
so maybe someone in the community can help me.
the FONT on the mailbox panel + the message listing panel, are TOO BIG. and no matter what i do in the properties under font, it has no impact.
the properities/font appears only to impact the email message itself.
I need to change the FONT back to what it was before i upgraded to maverick OSX from snow leopard. its way too big.
since upgrading to maverick OSX, the font in my browswer (firefox) is still OK. nothing apears to have changed.
but in the apple mail app - A MESS.
any clues?

Safari Tab size is too wide

I experienced Safari's Tab size is too wide, that it annoys me (and i believe other users too).
The behaviour as follow:
- When you first time open the browser, it is no tab and it looks normal.
- Then, when you open another tab, there are two tabs with size half of the windows size.... it is soo wide..
- Then, when you open another tab, the size of those three tabs split the wide of the windows... it is still too wide...
- and so on.
Please have a correction patch to this. Thanks.
Safari version used is Version 6.0.

Fonts are TOO BIG

It gripes me that when listing the podcast recordings that are in each podcast group, that the font size used by the iPhone is way too big and you cannot read very much of the description.
The phone has such great image quality that even small fonts are easy to read, and they could show much more of the description.

I have done both, doesn't fix it unfortunately
EDIT:
I just tried AGAIN and it worked... Dont understand why but its fine now. For everyone wondering:
- disable custom dpi
- close appearance
- enable again
- restart
is what worked for me.

Fonts are too big under Linux

Hello,
under my Linux X11 installation (gdm,xfce4) the fonts of the Oracle Calendar are too big. Is there a way to set up the font size of the calendar application manually?
Thanks in advance, Hauke!

Yikes - Display fonts are too big!!

I have a G6 iMac and all of a sudden the fonts on every page are huge. It seems like I am in some kind of zoom mode. Any clue how to fix this?
Thanks

Well, I'm not sure exactly what you mean. What
"page"? Is it only happening with web sites, or does
it happen everywhere? Is it just the text, or is
everything zoomed?
If it's just the web, and you're using Safari, go to
its preferences, click the Appearance tab and change
the font sizes. If it's everything, go to System
Preferences and check the Displays settings
(specifically, make sure that the resolution hasn't
changed to a lower one) and the Universal Access
settings (which have a zoom mode).
If none of this fits, give us more details.
This happens in all applications and browsers....Safari and Firefox so it must be some kind of system setting. Checked Universal settings, font size is set to 12 pt. Geez, I am stumped. My Mac is an iBook but this new whopper is my sister's....

Xfce4 fonts are too big for some applications

Hi there,
overall, my fonts are just fine. However, in some applications (panel and thunar from what I've noticed so far), the fonts are about twice as big. I assume those are applications which are started quite early.
I'm on a 4k monitor, xfce4 desktop environment, dpi set to 96 in the xorg conf.
Any ideas are appreciated

Font name too big to see

Hi, i'm using Acrobat X1 on Mac OSX Mavericks
I have some large font families with long names but i can't see the full name in the drop down in the content editing section, and there doesn't seem to be away to expand the toolbar to make them fully visible. Even if I hover over the full name isn't revealed.
Is there anything I can do to make the font name more visible as this is really slowing me down.
Cheers

Should it happen again double tap the screen with three fingers. Then go to settings> general> accessibility> zoom> off.

Iphone 4 Messaging - Font size TOO BIG!

How does one reduce the font size in the message bubbles?
Cheers,

Have you verified that you do not have accessibility turned on in Settings?

Firefox 22 and higher shows fonts too big or too small, sometimes on the same page. How to "fix" this annoying 'improvement"?

Since the update *every* website displays with the fonts too big or too small. On many websites, some of the fonts are too big and some are too small *on the same page*
This makes for a horrible browsing experience.
I've tried setting the layout.css.PixelsPerPx to a value of 1, but all it does is make most websites fonts too small, while leaving some websites fonts too large, with many web pages having fonts simultaneously too large and too small.
The old behavior was quite acceptable and I'd really like to restore the behavior to what it was. How can I do that? Or do i just switch to Chrome and be done with it?

Did you even bother to read the question?
"I've tried setting the layout.css.PixelsPerPx to a value of 1, but all it does is make most websites fonts too small, while leaving some websites fonts too large, with many web pages having fonts simultaneously too large and too small."
This "fix" doesn't work. Hundreds of people are complaining about how their browser was broken by this "improvement". Why not address the real problem instead of telling users to apply a useless hack to fix a programming error?

Safari font specifically in Google search is way too BIG

The font in Google search is way too big. Only in Google. Other websites show normal fonts. Did someone encounter such problem? Please help me! Thank you!

Hello How Goes It,
select the cells you want to have no margin and choose the text inspector of the infopalette and the text tab button. At the bottom is a slider and a number field. There you can adjust the margin thickness.
Frank.
