Keyboard-only navigation
This website allows visitors to navigate using only the keyboard. You can navigate by pressing the TAB key repeatedly. Every keypress brings the focus to the next element, i.e., link or a button. The element currently in focus is highlighted by colour change and a framed box around it. To activate the link in focus (i.e., click on the link), press the ENTER key.
Zooming in and out
There are three main ways to zoom in on a webpage - using your browser built-in capabilities, using your OS built-in capabilities, or installing a special plug-in for the browser. Our recommendation is to use the easiest way - browser built-in zoom.
With a browser
All popular browsers allow zooming in and out by pressing the CTRL (CMD in OS X) and + or - keys at the same time.
Another option is to hold down the CTRL key while scrolling up or down with the mouse. You can return to normal size by pressing CTRL and 0 at the same time.
In your operating system
All of the most common operating systems contain settings to increase the content displayed on the screen.
Windows 7 and newer operating systems include Magnifier, a program that allows zooming. Press the START menu button on the left, print Magnifier (the first few letters are enough) and press the ENTER key. A small overlay window appears that can be moved around with the mouse and zooms everything in it.
In Windows 10, press the key with Windows logo on bottom left of your keyboard and plus (+) on keyboard as many times as you would like to zoom in. To zoom out, press the key with Windows logo and minus (-) on your keyboard.
To use Zoom on Apple computers, go to: Apple menu – System Preferences – Accessibility (or Universal Access) – Zoom.
Browser plug-ins
Browsers have plug-ins that extend the zooming capabilities. For example, Zoom Page for Firefox, and AutoZoom for Google Chrome, which enables to zoom both the entire page and text only.
