  • Scroll down to Fonts and Colors and click on Advanced…
  • Change the value of the Minimum font size to None.

To isolate the issue, disable the browser extensions known to block scripts and security software temporarily. If doing so resolves the problem, you could add Firefox as an exception to the security software’s whitelist.
