Changing the font size
The Stemistry website is designed to let you change the text size for readability by using the text size function at the top right of the site. There are four size options: Default, +1, +2 and +3. You can also view the site in a text-only version.
Access keys
Most browsers support jumping to specific links by typing keys defined here that will help you use the size controls and navigate more easily.
On Windows, you can press ALT + an access key; on Macintosh, you can press CTRL + an access key.
The following access keys allow you to CHANGE TEXT SIZE:
Access key:
1 - SIZE +1
2 - SIZE +2
3 - SIZE +3
0 - DEFAULT SIZE
(NB TEXT-SIZE ACCESS KEYS DO NOT FUNCTION IN THE TEXT-ONLY VERSION)
The following is for the TEXT-ONLY version of the website:

And the Access key that will take you to the HOME PAGE:h - HOME PAGE
