Microsoft – Outlook message text in received messages too small


Problem

  2. Then click Zoom button on the ribbon bar.
  3. Choose the Zoom level required or enter a percentage figure.
  4. Then click Remember My Preference.
  5. Then click OK button.
All emails will then display with the new Zoom setting.
