Extension summary

What is Hanzisize? Hanzisize is a browser extension that allows selective resizing of text according to the language selected by the user.

Why do I need it? The inspiration for this browser extension came from my own frustration trying to read very small Chinese script online. I wanted to enlarge the font-size of Chinese characters without changing the size of English text or any other elements on the page.

How does it work? The current version of Hanzisize is able to selectively resize Arabic, Burmese, Chinese, English, Georgian, Korean, Hebrew, Hindi, Japanese, and Thai text. Other languages may be added later based on demand.

Hanzisize allows for easy increasing and decreasing font-size on the page, with a few limitations. For example, the font size of an element can never be smaller than it was when the page was first loaded. This prevents headers and other large font size elements from shrinking while small paragraph text is enlarged.

Privacy Hanzisize does not collect or transmit any user data. The only information that is stored are the most recent language and font size settings for user convenience. This data is stored in the user's browser and is not transmitted externally or used for any other purpose.
