I stand corrected here. I didn't properly state what I was meaning to say.
What I should have stated more clearly is that there are a great many sites
that use both graphics and text to convey textual information and that when
the enlarge/reduce text action is taken only the text changes size and not
the graphic. Furthermore, on literally every site I've visited enlarging the
text eventually produces a complete hodge-podge. That's why I think the
proper solution is to have services directly in the operating system itself
to serve the special needs of the visually impaired.
