Zoom In or Out

Most web browsers include functionality that allows for an increase or decrease text and content in web pages via a feature called browser zoom. Some browsers also give control for text-only size adjustments. Additionally, there are a number of browser extensions or add-ons that provide users additional control over the display of content.

Most commonly, the commands to increase or decrease zoom levels in browsers are:

Windows, Linux, and Chrome OS: Ctrl and + or Ctrl and – (pressing Ctrl and the plus button or Ctrl and the minus button simultaneously)

Mac OS: ⌘ and + or ⌘ and + (pressing command and the plus button or command and the minus button simultaneously)

Browser vendors have specific, detailed, and updated guides available for changing the zoom and/or text display sizes. We have collected links to some of these resources for your convenience.
