Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 96096

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

     I have a high resolution monitor, so to view webpages I have to use fairly
large fonts.  But when these are printed, webpages don't fit on printed pages,
so I have to reduce font size.  This is a constant pain.
     Alternatively, I now set the font sizes small, suitable for printing, and
everytime I open Mozilla, I have to zoom up the font size.
     Solution:  It would be nice if Mozilla had a configuration that set the
initial zoom to something other that 100%.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Set font sizes to 8 in Preferences, suitable for printing (saved as a PREF)
2.View any webpage -- fonts are too small
3.Zoom up with ctl +
4.Everytime Borwser is opened, you must zoom up to view any page
5.Alternatively, any time a page is printed, you have to go in and reset font sizes.

Or you could put rules in your user stylesheet that reduce sizes for printing...

Since we plan to move towards persisting zoom per-site, the approach you're
using now will break anyway.
