Im only guessing here but i reckon it could only be done mucking around at the Root level within the system directory or via Terminal and if you aren't proficient in either of these ways then there is a big chance of stuffing up your system and a complete reinstall is needed.

I could be wrong here but i didn't find anything where there is a way.

Cheers

How about the handy "MFFontColourChanger 1.0" by our very own Staff member Vansmith? I have it installed as a Plugin for Safari and it does indeed darken the fonts nicely.

The only problem is I forgot where I downloaded it from. We'll have to ask Van where he has it stored for download.

Me too. But, I'm sure that's why my previous post failed to illustrate what I was trying to show the OP. I forgot about downloading that useful plugin.

Making Fonts darker in Safari

This information is far too difficult for me to handle. Firefox is a much simpler search engine to navigate I think I will just go back to using it instead of trying to dealing with Safari. Thanks all for trying to solve this issue for me.

Ok, but Firefox and Safari are web browsers. Google, Yahoo, and Bing are search engines, to name a few.

OK then. I will be using the web browser Firefox going forward because its default font is much easier to view.
