  <title>Change the font</title>

  <p>By default, your system font will be used to display web pages whenever
  possible. If you use the <gui href="help:gnome-help/a11y-font-size">Large
  Font</gui> accessibility setting, this will be taken into account. You can
  change this and use different fonts for viewing websites.</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Open
      <guiseq><gui style="menu">Web</gui><gui style="menuitem">Preferences</gui><gui style="tab">Fonts &amp; Styles</gui></guiseq>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Untick the <gui>Use system fonts</gui> checkbox.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click on the font to open the font chooser dialog, where you can
      select a different font type or size.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Press <gui style="button">Select</gui> to save your choice.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>You can also increase font size with
  <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>+</key></keyseq> and decrease it with
  <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>-</key></keyseq>.</p>
