Screenshots

1.3
- Fixed bug when all text on-site became unreadable, while the plugin is activated.
It happened on sites, that haven’t declared charset explicitly. Now, plugin set charset to UTF-8.
- Added possibility to scale page.
I know (and some people wrote me about that), that functionality for changing font size works incorrectly.
In fact, that works correctly, but only if you are using CSS REM or EM units (instead of pixels).
Accessibility spring just changing the font size of element.
After research, I found a universal solution, and implement that in my plugin. Now, you can choose an approach that works better in your case – “Option to change font size” or “Option to scale page”. But I am still finding the best practice, and I hope that I will find the most universal solution for changing the size of text, even when your site is written with px, vh, %, pt, etc.
Special thanks to Anton from CSR Technology and Peter Smith
