Temporarily enlarge an email in the Reading Pane
In the Reading Pane, you can also make the contents of an email larger, so it’s easier to read.
However, increasing the size of the text in the Reading Pane only works on the email you are currently looking at. When you click on another email, the body text will return to the default font size.
-
Click once on the message you want to preview in the Reading Pane.
-
In the bottom right corner of the Outlook window, drag the zoom bar right (for larger text).
