Odd behavior with HTML Viewer

Targets iOS
1

I sometimes use the html viewer to provide instructions (it’s fairly easy to do formatting).

Works fine in simulator. Works fine on regular size iPad.

On an iPad mini the text is really small (looks like 4 pt type).

I’ll be back after some more research, but if anyone has a suggestion…

Have you got the meta viewport set in the html content so that the content isn’t scaled?

meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"

Glad it was useful. That setting has caught me out several times on mobile!

Sorry, deleted by mistake. I’ll put it back tomorrow afternoon.

Here’s the example HTML that I accidentally deleted.

<html>

<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
</head>

<body>
USER VISIBLE STUFF GOES HERE.
