I downloaded the new 31.0 Version, my widescreen windows all display way to big. How do I set up all pages to open with smaller fonts?

I have gone through the Tools bar and played with the settings, but once I exit the program all windows subsequently go back to giant fonts.

I am working with a widescreen and hope to resolve this with your assistance!

Thanks

I have also used the ctrl zoom in and zoom out. Unfortunately this only solves the problem for the time being. I am looking for a permanent fix that won't be wiped when I clear the hisory, open new tabs, or exit the program entirely.

You can set the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref on the about:config page to 1.0 or on Windows 8 to 1.25 and if necessary adjust layout.css.devPixelsPerPx starting from 1.0 in 0.1 or 0.05 steps (1.1 or 0.9) to make icons show correctly.

You can look at the Default FullZoom Level or NoScript extension if web pages need to be adjusted after changing layout.css.devPixelsPerPx.
