How do I set to make print smaller on Yahoo email, so it all fits screen?

Yahoo mail was working well, but suddenly print on screen is too large, making it difficult to read text of emails. Also, the screen kind of moves back and forth (left to right and back). I'd had no problems until installing Firefox 42. I received a message about "pixells" which I think I disregarded. How would I set them and at what size?

For on-screen, the easiest way to adjust the size is to use the zoom feature. On the application menu (accessed using the "3-bar" menu button), there usually are controls that look similar to this: 

- | 100% | +

The - reduces the text size, the + enlarges the text size, and if the center number if not 100%, clicking it will reset the zoom to 100%.

The corresponding keyboard shortcuts for Mac are:

  • Command + - to reduce
  • Command + + to enlarge
  • Command + 0 (that's a zero) to reset

Does that make any difference?

Firefox does have a setting for what is called the device pixel ratio, but if you only have a problem on one or a few websites, then I wouldn't change that because it's a global setting.

Hello, First of all, i'm sorry for my bad english : I'm french ^^'

So, if you want to do an screenshot you can use ShareX (Intuitive interface). And, if you want to print the page, you juste need to print your screenshot!


You can change to an other navigator like 0pera juste the time of printing your mail, but if you want to rest in firefox you can test that > https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-printing-problems-firefox
