A solution to the small font size problem of high-resolution webpage viewing

Some laptops or LCD monitors have an optimal resolution greater than 1024x768, for example, sxga +'s 1400x1050. We usually set a large font in Windows display options, to facilitate reading. However, by default, the Internet Explorer uses a 96 dpi resolution to display the content, and users are not allowed to select a custom resolution in the options. Therefore, when reading many webpages, the font size becomes small, which affects reading.

In the past, there was a way to set the IE "do not use the font size specified by the webpage" in the auxiliary function of the IE option ", then you can select the desired text size (small, medium, large, and so on) in the View menu, but this is only a magnification of the text, it will make those pages with complicated formats extremely messy, such as Sina.

I found a better method on the internet today. In the original article on msdn, we only need to add one in the Registry to enable IE to use the DPI we set, the advantage is that the page will be enlarged as a whole, without any impact on the layout. There are two problems. One is that the image is enlarged, so we can see slight serrations, second, you need to re-open ie after changing the settings to see the effect.

I have made two registry fragments and double-click them to import them. One is to allow IE to use custom DPI, and the other is to restore to the default setting (96 DPI). Download HERE.

If you need it, try it. Note that you must re-open IE to see the effect after import.
