Zoom in Microsoft Word

Question

How do I zoom in Microsoft Word?

Answer

After you have formatted or inserted something, you may need a closer look at its details. So you'll definitely want to know where you zoom.  Look in the lower-right corner. Drag the slider to the right to zoom in, and drag it to the left to zoom out. Clicking the percent number to the left of the slider will open the Zoom dialog box, where you can specify a zoom percentage. If your mouse has a wheel, you can hold down the CTRL key and turn the wheel forward to zoom in, backward to zoom out. You can also find Zoom commands on the View tab.
