Hello,

Firefox on Windows is now following display scaling options which may render text larger on high resolution displays. You can adjust your screen resolution. To modify it do the following:

  • Type about:config into the browser's address bar and tap on the Enter key.
  • Then a warning appears This might void your warranty, click I'll be careful, I promise.
  • Filter for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx.


layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

  • Double-click layout.css.devPixelsPerPx. It's default value is -1.0. Change it to 1.0 to make it work like in previous Firefox versions (Use values between 1.0 and about 0.5 to reduce elements in size or 1.25 to increase font size to 125%) .

If web pages needs to be adjusted after changing this pref then you can look at the Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint extension.

Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/

NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/

Use this extension to adjust the font size for the user interface:
