Zoom In and Out
While you’re working in an Office application, you might want to zoom
in to see a close-up view of part of your work, or zoom out to see a
bird’s-eye view of the whole project. The lower the zoom percentage, the
smaller everything looks — and the more you can see onscreen at once,
without scrolling.
Word, Excel, and PowerPoint all have the same zoom controls, located
in the bottom right of the window. (There are also zoom controls on
the View tab in each application.) Figure 1-15 shows the zoom con-
trols on the status bar.
➟
Drag the slider to adjust the zoom (to the left to
zoom out, and to the right to zoom in).
➟
Click the minus or plus button (at opposite ends of
the slider) to slightly zoom out (minus) or in (plus).
➟
Clicking the number of the current zoom percentage
opens a Zoom dialog box, which shows more zoom-
ing options.
Zooming doesn’t affect the size of printouts. It is
only an onscreen adjustment.
