18878:-Adjusting Outlook's Zoom Setting in Email
Zoom Is On When Reading
Mail
When your incoming
email is zoomed, the easiest fix is to hold Ctrl as you roll
the mouse wheel (this is the likely cause for many people).
Keyboarders can use
the Ctrl and plus (+) or minus (-) keys to
change the zoom level in increments or Ctrl and the zero
(0) key to go to 100%. Note: these keyboard shortcuts do not work in
Outlook 2013/2016.
You can also click
the Zoom button in the ribbon and set it back to 100%.
Click the button in
the ribbon to open the zoom dialog and select the desired zoom level.
Outlook 2010, 2013,
and 2016 have a zoom slider in the main Outlook window status bar (on the right
side). Use this slider to adjust the zoom in the reading pane.
If you prefer, you can
click on the zoom % (100% in the screenshot) to open the zoom dialog.
Note that changing the zoom setting is not
persistent for reading messages. To make the zoom level persistent, you need to
use an add-in or a macro. A list of zoom tools is in the Tools
Section and a macro is
at the end.
When Composing Message,
Zoom Is Always On
Many times, when you
make the change to a message you are composing and send it, the next message
you compose reverts to the goofy zoom setting. This is because making changes
to a message then sending the message applies the changes to that message only.
If you make the changes then close the message, it should apply the changes to
all future messages.
When zoom is stuck on
a value (usually a tiny font), you can reset it by changing the zoom level then
closing, but not sending, the message. If you change the zoom level then send,
the change applies only to the message you changed, not to future messages.
In Outlook 2016, the
Zoom button is on the Format Text ribbon.
In Outlook 2010 and
2013, the Zoom button is on the Message tab when composing (or reading) a
message.
1. Open a new message
2. Click the Zoom button
on the ribbon
3. Change the zoom to the
desired level
4. Close the message.
5. Click new message (or
reply) and the zoom should be the desired level.
