INTRODUCTION
Depending on the resolution of your monitor and the size of your text, there may be times when you want to zoom in on your text to enlarge it so that you can get a better look at it, or zoom out to shrink it to see more of the page. Zooming doesn't affect the size of the text when it prints; it only affects its appearance on your screen.
To use a setting that isn't one of the options in the Zoom list, click the current entry in the Zoom box, type a new number (you need not type the percent sign), and press Enter .
Word applies the setting you typed.
TIP
Using Other Zoom Settings
When you are using Print Layout view, the end of the Zoom list contains four handy options for zooming to the width of your page, the width of your text, the entire page, and two pages. Feel free to experiment with these settings.
