I don't like the teeny tiny fonts either. Very hard to read. I don't want to change my ""view"" because then it will make all the others too big/

Coupon Queen.....when someone posts from an Ipad I just keep pressing ctrl + until I can read it and then I press ctrl - to put it back to the way it was. Even when there are no paragraphs, one can still read it by making it larger from your computer.

well, SORRY----sinc I'm not one of those terribly interesting and knowledgeable posters---and most of the time I use my iPad, I guess posts by that nasty, $$$$ woman will stand and Sylvia will fade away

As a reminder to those posting on iPads or iPhones, if you'll precede your post with "< p >" (but remove the spaces I placed before and after the letter "p") it will make your text larger. That html code actually tells the system you're starting a paragraph, but it also serves to make larger text.

That's the simplest thing to remember and to do. If you want to do more, place "< p >" at the beginning of each paragraph and "< /p >" at the end of each paragraph.

Just remember, remove the spaces I placed before and after the "p" and the "/p". I have to insert them so the site won't try to interpret the code after the "<".

There's more you can do (here's a link to one of the threads with instructions), but again I don't think we should have to go to these lengths.

Thanks!

I used to use html a lot, I'll give it a try

YAY!

If the ipad doesn't do what you want, then use your computer.

Your iPad goes with you. Not that easy to drag your computer along

I use both...and I do have an external keyboard for my ipad, but using it doesn't solve the problem with posting on this board...as stated in another post.

The problem is with this site! And I only have this problem with this site. Why shouldn't I use my ipad when I'm on the road...if I want to post here?

QVC needs to do some long-overdue updates.

Agreed. The Q needs to get with it.

It's not impossible to read the small iPad print. We can all adjust the size of the font, even temporarily, on our computers.

I don't automatically pass by a post obviously done on an iPad, I look to see who wrote it. There are several very intelligent posters on this board that use an iPad, and what they have to say is usually important or interesting.

I can adjust on my IPAD but I didn't know that I could do that on my Mac. Thanks..

Also meant to say, I agree. There are many really interesting and intelligent posters that I enjoy reading who either use their phone or an Ipad to share their opinion.

I agree with Noel, too. But obviously, many will skip over the small text and the long paragraphs, just as they avoid the posts in all caps or in all bold text.

On the Mac, just press the Apple (Command) key and the plus or minus key to zoom in or out.

dooBdoo, thank you once again. Now I can stop with the magnifier!!It is so much easier on my eyes. I really should take a course on using a Mac. I know they offer them at Apple. My kids keep telling me I would enjoy it.

You're welcome! I'll bet you'd enjoy a class. But don't ever hesitate to ask on the forums here -- there are some knowledgeable, helpful folks who usually can find the answer.
