On many websites the lines overlap and some are hidden behind other lines. I am on a mac
I changed the resolution on my screen to make the type and images bigger but all I succeeded in doing was to obscure information - basically the website doesn't fit inside the firefox window so lines overlap and other lines wrap in screwy ways. I have tried all of the resolutions available (or at least that I know about) and that has not solved this problem. zooming does nothing more than changing the size of the window or changing the size of the type - doesn't solve the overlap problem

If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.
- Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
- Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

Thanks for this - it basically worked. I still have to fiddle with a page or two but the crucial pages are working well now
You're welcome
You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.
