Can the zoom level be increased?
The bottom right hand corner of IE has a zoom level adjustment for the vision impaired. I do not wish to just increase the font size, rather the entire webpage.

Built-in Zoom functions:
- http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Page+Zoom
- http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Text+Zoom
- CTRL+0 (<--that is a zero) will reset your zoom level on affected pages. Firefox remembers the zoom level you last used on a page.
Zoom Add-on:
- Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/ (this adds an icon to the Add-on Bar (former Status Bar) similar to what you describe)

Hi nostuh,
You can increase the zoom level by hitting CTRL and +. These options are also available in the View > Zoom menu. You can find a more detailed explanation of all the ways to use Zoom in the How do I use Zoom Knowledge Base article.
Hopefully this helps!

Thanks Matt! Huge help, did not know about the Alt option.
Thanks SafeBrowser, I've installed NoSquint and seems to have done the trick.
