Low Vision  - simple ZOOM effects in WORD 
Here are some Low Vision tips to see Words in Word better 

1.	Open Word 
2.	CTRL+N to open another new document, and ALT+TAB between these two documents
3.	In Document1, Type: We can become bitter or better through tests and trials.
4.	Hit ALT+V for view and Z for zoom
5.	Up arrow to 200% and press enter
6.	Your document is now at 200%
7.	ALT+TAB to Document2
8.	Type: There is a test in all testimonies.
9.	Hit ALT+V then Z again for zoom
10.	ALT+E to jump to percent that you want to increase and type in 500 and hit enter—hint: you can type any size in this box
11.	Your page is now at 500%
12.	ALT+TAB between both documents to compare document size
13.	ALT+V, then z again  and hit 1 for 100%
14.	ALT+V, then z again  and hit 2 for 200%

It is better to increase the zoom versus the font as the font will 
become distorted on the page as you type and if you forget to decrease 
the font size when you print it out, you will waste a great deal of 
paper. By increasing the zoom, you can see what you are doing and then 
print it out at the 12 or 14 sized font which is the typical font size 
of reading material.
