Text size
The text size on this website is user-controllable rather than being a fixed size, in compliance with Government Guidelines for accessibility. This will enable you to change the text size using your browser settings.

With Internet Explorer the default text size is set to medium. If you have your text size set to small or smallest, you may find this text too small to read. To change the text sizes in Internet Explorer, go to View > Text size and set to the desired size.
Mozilla Firefox
In the 'View' menu click text size, and then increase or decrease until you reach the desired size. Click 'normal' to return to the default setting.
Netscape Navigator 6 or 7
In the 'View' menu rollover 'Text Size' or 'Text Zoom'. Choose from one of the options on the slide out menu: smaller / larger, 50% to 200%, or 'other' to enter another percentage.

In the 'View' menu click on 'Increase Font'. Do this twice or more if the text size is not affected the first time. Alternatively use the keyboard shortcuts - to increase text size press 'Ctrl' + '[' (square bracket), and to reduce the size press 'Ctrl' + ']' together.
