I am running firefox on Win7 with BlackfoxV2 but the pages are too large onscreen without zooming out 2 stops so how can I set this to be permanent?

I have used FF for some time and the earlier versions were fine. Since updating the pages are too large, I need to zoom out at least two stops to achieve the previous size onscreen, and it's a nuisance to do this for every single page. How can I set it to the previous size?

please make sure that you have set windows to display at 100% in the windows control panel > appearance > display. more information about that is available at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/make-the-text-on-your-screen-larger-or-smaller

or otherwise use the nosquint addon to set a global default zoom level that fits for your purpose: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/

You can set the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref on the about:config page to 1.0 or on Windows 8 to 1.25 and if necessary adjust layout.css.devPixelsPerPx starting from 1.0 in 0.1 or 0.05 steps (1.1 or 0.9) to make icons show correctly.

Use an extension to adjust the text size in the user interface and the page zoom in the browser window.

You can look at this extension to adjust the font size for the user interface.

You can look at the Default FullZoom Level or NoScript extension if web pages need to be adjusted after changing layout.css.devPixelsPerPx.
