Set default page zoom level in Epiphany (GNOME Web browser)

I have a small screen with my laptop. In Firefox, I change the default page zoom level using the NoSquint extension, but I'm a Gnome user and I would prefer using Epiphany (Web)...

Is it possible to set a default page zoom level in Epiphany browser (Web) ?

I use Epiphany (Web) 3.6 on Ubuntu Gnome Remix 12.10.

Thanks,

Rémi.

This can be done with the dconf editor. I have issues with High DPI and needed the default zoom at 75%. In the dconf editor go to org/gnome/epiphany/web/default-zoom-level. A value of 1.0 is 100%, and you can do the math to get what you need.

Im using Epiphany on a Raspberry Pi. From the browser, I selected Settings → Preferences → Fonts and Style → Use Custom Stylesheet, and then wrote a stylesheet (which needs to be at /home/pi/.config/epiphany) to change the size of the text. However, this is not ideal because the CSS settings can be over-ridden by the pages visited. As I’m new to this, I’ve yet to discover where the Use Custom Stylesheet setting is actually stored.

If you only want text zoom then press CTRL and + sign. If you want full page zoom, then check out this solution here:
