I apologize - please disregard my post.
I edited userChrome.css, and that did it, and also set the minimum
font size to 16. I'm satisfied now :-)

I just got done setting up the Xorg-7.2 and Fluxbox, and after
compiling and running Firefox-2 for the first time, I found that the
default font set-up wasn't to my liking. It looked strange and
wouldn't produce any boldfaces in Gmail. So I followed a "Howto Xorg
and Fonts - Gentoo Linux Wiki", and my font paths for Xorg currently
have:
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/misc/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/Type1/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/corefonts/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/freefonts/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/sharefonts/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/terminus/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/ttf-bitstream-vera/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/unifont/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/intlfonts/"
I removed the "/usr/share/fonts/TTF" and "/usr/share/fonts/OTF"
entries that were in my /etc/xorg.conf, since I did not find those
directories in my /usr/share/fonts directory.
In Firefox-2 advanced fonts & colors menu, I set proportional to Serif
(16), serif to bitstream vera serif, sans-serif to bitstream vera
sans, and monospace to bitstream vera sans mono (12).
However, I notice no change from the original Firefox-2 font
appearance, unless I check the "always use my fonts" option. When I
"always use my fonts", I get boldfaces in Gmail, etc, which is good,
but the default font size in Firefox is still too small, and I always
need to click on View->Text Size -> Increase.
I would like my Firefox fonts under Xorg to look more or less like my
Firefox fonts under Windows ;) How did some of you deal with
customizing fonts in Firefox?
And how can I make the font in Firefox menus and URL bar larger?
Thanks, and I apologize in advance if my questions are too simplistic
or have already been asked many times before...
