All other browsers should be able to re-size the text directly from the menu bar.

Or in many browsers, you can zoom by holding CTRL and pressing + or - .  Some browsers also support zooming by holding CTRL and using the mouse scroll wheel. Please see your specific browser help pages if you are having difficulty.
