Default IE 7 fonts on Firefox

hey guys,

I was looking for some kind of a plugin which would allow me to see the same font style, size and font attributes as displayed in IE 7, so I googled and found this link:

http://www.realestatebloglab.com/blo...-applications/

Here, a Microsoft power toy known as CLEAR TYPE TUNER is mentioned, which will allow users to view the same fonts used by IE 7 into FF.

You can get this CLEAR TYPE TUNER plugin from here:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx

In the rt. hand column, DOWNLOADS, there is this mentioned:
Quote:
ClearType Tuner PowerToy
setup.exe
2 MB 5 min @ 28.8 Kbps
So, d/load it and install it and apply the plugin, then restart FF and see the difference. I have posted pics for your clarity..

Before Applying the plugin, the font in FF is a bit thin and less vibrant (below):



===============================================

After Applying the plugin, the font in FF is the same as seen in IE 7 which is much more bolder and thick (below):



================================================


Hope u guys like it, I am using this w'out any complications..
--------------


Cheers n e-peace....

^^

well no, its already a MS made script, since there was no appropriate section for it, i placed it here...

If u feel its in the wrong section, u can move it elsewhere..
-------------

also, does the PROGRAMMING section means tat users cannot post other offically made scripts apart from their own custom made ones?? ??

I cant see that written anywhere buddy...

Instead of saying tat i can read the script or no, if u wud hv apprciated this small solution for a FF font, it wud be rather helpful for others too..
---------------------

Cheers n e-peace...
