Toolbar fonts way too small web pages way too big

Upgraded to FF23 which I freaking hate FF since 18 but don't have choice for my security. Font on toolbar is about 6px and webpages are about 300% of what is normal by looking at other pages. I know I know I've heard about going to the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx in about:config but this only serves to reduce the font size on toolbar to about 2px. I have my settings on my machine set to 113% font size adjust but changing layout.css.devPixelsPerPx default setting does nothing but make webpages 300% enlarged and font size on toolbar almost okay.
I already have enough addons and why should I need to add two more just to see a webpage at its regular design size. An image that is 43x43px is showing up at 55x55px. The exact webpages look perfectly normal in all other browsers. So in spite of my support for FF projects I guess I will be leaving since users are not considered valuable.

cor-el: Thank you very much for your reply but I do not know what the Context Menu is or where to find it. I'd appreciate some further help. Thanks

GFS Didot is nearest listed MUSE font in appearance to Adobe Caslon Pro, which is the font used in the book which the website is intended to promote. I would like to use Adobe Caslon Pro (I paid for it and it's on my computer, but not in the cloud). Is there any way to install Adobe Caslon Pro as a MUSE font choice in the cloud?

No Fonts in UI or Web Pages XP Pro

No Fonts in UI or Web Pages XP Pro, I've tried the plist and resources suggestions no luck.

Several things can cause this, the most common solutions have already been mentioned.
Other things you can try:
Search for the Adobe font list files and delete them, by searching for Adobefnt*.lst. The files have names like Adobefnt08.lst, Adobefnt10.lst, etc.
Delete the Adobe shared fonts and reinstall Illustrator, by removing the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts folder.
Troubleshoot the installed fonts by removing all the fonts from C:\Windows\Fonts other than the one installed by XP to another folder outside the Windows folder, and restarting. See http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=326402 for a list of font NOT to remove.

After the recent update the entire browser, including menus, icons, and everything on the web page, are too small. Fonts are smaller, pics are smaller, zoom settings will not remain universal. Minimum font size will make text readable, but all pics are to

The new update has screwed up my browser settings, I cannot get them fixed and Im pissed because my computer is an eye-sore to read until this is fixed! EVERYTHING in the browser is smaller, fonts, menus, icons, web page content, pictures, tables, etc. I have set the minimum font in the settings and the text is just to a point where it is easily readable at the maximum size setting, but all the menus and icons are still tiny and hard to read. The last version I had installed worked fine with no add-ons needed. Everything fit the screen fine and was easily readable without modification. I want this version off my PC and I want the last version I had back on but I dont know what version it was!!!!!!! ARARGGGG
In fact, this stupid troubleshooting window that I am in filling out this form doesnt fit the page right at all, and edges of the text are cut off, so Im not even sure what some of these boxes are asking for!!

See [[Toolbars and page content appear too large after upgrading to Firefox 3]]
*Try to adjust the DPI setting, see http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.css.dpi
*Try to set the pref layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to 2 on the about:config page.
To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Is there a way to disallow web pages to modify foreground color of elements if background of those elements was not changed as well (and vice versa)?

I have very sensible defaults for my display; i.e. I have dark GTK scheme (dark gray background, light gray text) that suits me way more when working on my computer while it's dark around. I, however, like looking at web pages as how they were mean to be seen. Unfortunately, most of web designers don't think about anyone having non-default colors set up.
Example one ( http://www.cedok.cz ):
This site's CSS style has "color: rgb(45, 45, 45);" for the whole <body> but for <select> elements there is no "background-color" set. This means there is a select box rendered with dark gray background and dark gray foreground (text color). This is pretty badly readable (obviously).
To mention one particular element from this site: e.g. <select id="ctl00_ContentPlaceHolderLevySloupec_HledaniMultiTab1_HledaniZajezdu1_ddlTypZajezdu">
Example two ( https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/desktop/customize/form ):
On this page (where I'm currently filling in this question) the <textarea id="id_content"> has "background: ... rgb(255, 255, 255);" set, but with my default font color, this textarea is rendered as light gray text on a white background. Again, pretty unreadable (and eye-hurting).
I can provide screenshots and more reasoning if needed.
I'm asking if there is (or might be) an option (even disabled by default) or at least an add-on which would keep default colors unless both foreground and background colors were specified. I think this might make Firefox very usable for many people which like to have their default colors configured.
In case you won't be able to help me by fixing this, could you redirect me to the right place where I could get this requested in a way that might be really possible to happen (bugzilla?).
Thank you very much in advance.

Thanks for the reply, but I'm sorry, no. I don't want any addon that customizes colors, I want to use default colors and only prohibit changing them unless both background and foreground colors are changed.
I have made no color changes WRT to Firefox *only*, I just changed the default for the whole toolkit (gtk in this case). The thing I need is to disable changing *only one* property out of two ({back,fore}ground). Whenever the second one gets set as well, this new setting (both of them) may get reflected, but not before that. It'd be nice to keep this when changing the colors back (deleting the style), but that's not necessary.
I hope that's understandable, feel free to ask for if that's not the case.
To express what I mean a bit more precisely, see the attached image. In that image there are four textareas (one of the elements that gets affected by this). First one is a default one (which I want to have if the page has nothing set), the second one is nicely modified to fit for example to a blue-ish page (this one I like as well).
Second row of textareas shows how the final element looks like if the page has only one of these elements set up. First one changes background without changing font color, the second one vice versa. Both of them are very badly readable, especially with low lighting around.
This is consequently the same case when it comes to default page background which I cannot set at all, because too many pages have only "color:" set without changed background and that is completely messed up then. Going to extremes, I might mention all color-related modifications (see how ugly the borders look when the background is changed and nothing is done to these borders, their size and color is kept default), but I understand that's too much.

What the best ways to save web pages on the cloud ? Using an iPhone ?

Dear folks
I read a lot of web pages on iPhone that I need to refer to / come back to later
I have limited space on my iPhone and do not want to clutter the phone saving all these pages
What are the best options to
a) save these web pages on the cloud ?
B) Or mail them to myself ( again store on some specific gmail or so account ? )
Or
C) It would also be great to convert them to PDF and mail them to myself or save them on box dot net or Dropbox
Or
d) save them initially on the phone but , eventually move them in batches to my hard drive thru backups
What is the best option ? And What are the best ways to do this
Free apps / solutions preferred
If not so paid ones are okay
TIA
Regards
Subu

Import photos to your computer, then delete the copies that reside on the phone. Also remove apps you no longer use.

Web pages appear too big

web pages are way too big and i can't fix this. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Hi, exactly what is too big and in comparison to what else. Please remember we can not see what you are seeing.
* are you looking at webpages that are mainly text, is the text to big or too small or ok and you can read it ?
* does [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/home/?as=u this] firefox support page display ok ?
* is text size normal, and does it all fit on the width of the screen without you needing to scroll ?
* do you know what screen resolution you are using ?
Some things you could try:
* ZOOM use control key and the plus or minus key, or use View-> Zoom note that also includes a 'text only' option
* Full Screen View: key F11 or View -> Full screen will hide some of the bars so you see more of the webpage (press F11 again to return to normal)
There are options for setting minimum text sizes, and also addons to change all sorts of things, sometimes with special scripts, but lets just try the simple things first.
Note in Windows XP your screen resolution may be reset to different valuses using
* Start -> Control Panel -> Display -> screen resolution
Note that has a slider and towards the "more" end will give more pixels, that usually results in more text or words being displayed on a screen or webpage, but each word being smaller.

How do I increase the font size on the web page?

The font on Safari page is too small for me. I have tried and could not get it adjusted as in Macbook. Any one who can help? For zooming doesn't resolve the problem.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Advanced
and check the box marked Never use font sizes smaller than...
Caution: This setting may cause unexpected results with some pages.

Small web pages: how to display right?

Hi!
When I go to some mobile-optimized web pages, like for example http://microsofttranslator.com/m/ the text appears super-tiny on the top-left corner of my phone, so every time I go there I have to make the "zoom" gesture with my fingers and then re-center the page.
That really makes these sites less useful, since a big part of the appeal is to be able to *quickly* look something up on my phone.
Is there something I can do so that it remembers the size, even if I quit and restart the web browser? The simplicity of these mobile-optimized pages is otherwise very appealing.

Hello jpmartin and welcome to the forums;
An easier way to zoom in would be for your example to tap one time in the box where you are going to type. This automatically zooms and centers on that text box, giving good access to the other options on the screen.
The problem is the difference in mobile platforms and web browsers. The Pre's browser usually registers on websites as a standard browser, not a mobile one. If you try going to http://microsofttranslator.com/m/ from your desktop PC, you get the same exact page that appears on the Pre. Some sites are built to recognize the Pre and direct you to an optimized site that works extremely well (Google and gmail are great examples here), and some are not.
Also, try the non-mobile version of the site, since it loads the same way as on a desktop PC, you may find that interface more user-friendly, or try one of the many other web-based translators.
Hope this helps,
TreoAide

Text font not going to web page defaults

Firefox appears to be using the "options" font type and color, rather than the web page font and color, despite the box being checked to allow the web page font to override the options font

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.
*Edit > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced: [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
You can check the gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled pref on the <b>about:config</b> page and reset user set (bold) gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled prefs via the right-click context menu to the default value to make sure that you allow fonts to be downloaded.
