If you have problems reading the text of our website you might
find it easier to read if you increase its size.
There are a number of ways that you can adjust the size of
the text displayed (either to increase or decrease its size). These
depend on your browser and the platform you are using.
Scroll Wheel Mouse Method
If you have access to a scroll wheel mouse, hold down the CTRL
key on your keyboard and scroll the wheel. This will adjust the
text size on most platforms and browsers. Scrolling up will
increase the text size, and scrolling down will decrease the text
size. If you are not able to use a scroll wheel mouse in this way,
or if you wish to make a permanent change to your text size, then
you will have to use the browser specific methods detailed
below.
Browser Specific Methods
Depending on the browser you are using there are other ways you
