Can anyone tell me how to enlarge the print when printing
things from web sites. My mother is vision impaired and
in poor health so I need to print things with large
print. I can't find a way to do that. The print is often
so tiny she can't see it with a magnifying glass. I've
tried several things but the print always comes out very
small.
Thanks

Try copying the area of the web page that you want to print, then open
Wordpad or another word processor and paste the text into it. You can then
highlight all of the text and go to the Format menu and choose a larger size
for the font.

You can also enlarge the text on web pages by going to View, Text size in
Internet Explorer and choosing largest. Unfortunately, this doesn't usually
print satisfactorily as it doesn't usually fit on the width of a page.
