I increased the font size on the template’s back-end, Global Settings, to the maximum value that is 6, but this has had no effect on the site? Could you tell me how to increase the font size of the articles only, and why increasing the font size has not worked please?

I also read that there is something called Font Tool! Could you please tell me what this tool is? Is this a Joomlart tool?

Thank you.

Open the following file (end of path) –> /plugins/system/jat3/jat3/base-themes/default/css/template.css

beginning at line 25, you will see the following:


body.fs1 #ja-wrapper { font-size: 80%; }
body.fs2 #ja-wrapper { font-size: 90%; }
body.fs3 #ja-wrapper { font-size: 100%; }
body.fs4 #ja-wrapper { font-size: 110%; }
body.fs5 #ja-wrapper { font-size: 120%; }
body.fs6 #ja-wrapper { font-size: 130%; }
[FONT=arial]

The line I played around with a bit was line 27 … but do a little trial-and-error experimentation until you arrive at the result you want.

Hope that helps.

Hi Susan,

If you make changes in /plugins/system/jat3/jat3/base-themes/default/css/template.css file, when you upgrade the plugin the changes will be lost as file are overwritten. So I would suggest you to copy the code, Tom has given and paste it into /templates/yourtemplate/css/template.css file .

Thank you. Well, I have increased the font (also the menu fonts has creased as the result!) as you have described, but doesn’t work in IE. There are two other css files to update for IE? Isn’t that so?
