You may just need to adjust the zoom settings in your web browser. Hold down the CTRL key and press the + key at the same time until the text looks right. You can also hold down CTRL and press the 0 key at the same time to reset the zoom to default.

Thank you!

    If I could access place to make email font larger, I would do it. There's no point in sending me to your Help site when it loops back to this. THIS WAS NEVER A PROBLEM BEFORE.

    New font update is too light and hard to read. Please change to the previous font or let us customize the default font. I cannot read my inbox. It is giving me a headache even after zooming it is still unreadable.

    Hey Yahoo, how about allowing me to edit the TEXT message of my received e-mails. You had this option in Yahoo Mail many years ago and now I CANNOT EDIT THE MESSAGE.

    THE LETTERS ARE SO TINY THAT I HAVE TO USE A MAGNIFYING GLASS TO READ IT!

    I am completely fedup. After trying hundreds of times and following detailed instructions in Settings I am still unable to chenge my miniscule font which I cannot read my e.mails anymore.

    The old font is much visible thatn this new one.. Or have an option to choose preferred display font. It's hard to read

    There should be a setting to increase the font size of the Inbox messages. For an unknown reason the inbox messages are displayed in tiny font making it very difficult to use.

    Letters is too small to get mistake in reading and writing easlier.

    To give a choice for font style is freedom. Not everyone like the same font everyday or every week.

    How do I make my emails characters larger... to small to read.

  • Gail Henderson commented  ·   ·  Report

    This feature is available for writing emails - why not for viewing? I don't want to change the settings for my computer as a whole - but i do for emails - why isn't this something that is EASY to do (it is actually but obviously beyond your programmers perspective). Another case of something done to please the background programmers but not necessarily the users. Do your people actually USE this?

    Make it EASY to find out how to change the font size-> I still can't find out how to increase the font size.
    Settings button does NOT address changing the font size, please make it clear and easy to do !!!

    It can be difficult to read print especially if one sits a few feet behind the monitor. A tool is needed for increasing font size.

    Please stop defaulting to "Tiny" font. Many of my friends need larger fonts. I received large fonts from people who use Gmail, but my own favorite Yahoo keep shrinking everything I write. PLEASE STOP SHRINKING MY EMAILS TO "tiny" FONT.

  • Art H commented  ·   ·  Report

    enable changing text size of incoming emails, all folders, etc.

  • Jerry Bacon commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please create a setting where font size can be increased or decreased.
