As someone with very bad eyes, I was quite angry that Safari did not include a minimum font size option, meaning that many fonts appeared too small for me to see.

Taking a wild guess, I added the following lines to the com.apple.Safari.plist file located in the User preferences folder:

<key>WebKitMinimumFixedFontSize</key>
<integer>13</integer>
<key>WebKitMinimumFontSize</key>
<integer>14</integer>
To my surprise, it worked, and Safari will no longer display fonts at any sizes lower than those specified.
