How to quickly adjust the text size on a web page in Windows - 2

The fastest way to adjust the text size of a web page in Windows is to spin the mouse wheel while holding down the Ctrl key:

  • Ctrl + wheel spin away from you—zoom in
  • Ctrl + wheel spin toward you—zoom out

On laptops that use a touchpad instead of a mouse, you can use the following commands:

  • Ctrl + Plus—zoom in
  • Ctrl + Minus—zoom out

Plus and Minus can be pressed both on the main keyboard and on the additional (numeric) keyboard.

All these commands work the same in all browsers. Usually, browsers remember which website you have viewed at which scale and automatically display them at the scale you have previously selected when you log in.
