The new Microsoft Edge based on Chromium includes settings that allow you to change the font size globally for all websites, including settings. In addition, the settings even allow you to specify the default font styles the browser should use when a web page does not provide this customization. In today’s article, we will show you how to change and customize the default font size and style in the Edge browser.
Change the default font size and style in Edge
Customizing Microsoft Edge font size and styles for all web pages and settings lets you meet your display needs. Here’s how:

- Open Microsoft Edge Navigator.
- Click the ellipsis button (three dots) at the top right.

Once you have completed the steps, the new font size should be reflected on the settings page as well as on the websites you visit.
Customizing the font style in Edge
To customize the default font styles and size more granularly, follow these steps:
- Open Microsoft Edge Navigator.
- Click the ellipsis button (three dots) at the top right.
- Click on settings On the menu.
- Click on Appearance.
- In the “Fonts” section, click on the Customize fonts option.
