Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.x and Below

Version 4.0 - Gain Access to Your Font Changer

SUMMARY: Add a Fonts button to the Internet Explorer toolbar.

Although IE lets you make a webpage's text larger or smaller, this feature is hidden in the menus. If you frequently change a webpage's text size or default alphabet, add a "Fonts" button to your toolbar. Click on the "View" menu and select "Internet Options." On the multi-tabbed "Internet Options" dialog box that appears, select the "Advanced" tab. Scroll near the end of the list and check the "Show font button" option under "Toolbar". Now, press the "OK" button to close the dialog box. Voila - a new "Fonts" button appears on your toolbar.
