objects that are difficult to see and can be helpful to anyone with vision
challenges.

· Now click All Programs, click Accessories, click Ease of Access, and click Magnifier.
· Move the pointer to the part of the screen
that you want to magnify.
You can open it quickly by
clicking Start, and then type Magnifier.

resolution, which adjusts the clarity, size, and amount of things that fit on
your computer monitor which is found in the Display section of your control
panel.
Notes
To exit Magnifier, press the Windows Flag/Logo Key +

In Windows 7, there are three
Magnifier modes:
· Full-screen
mode. In full-screen mode, your entire screen is
magnified. Depending on the size of your screen and the zoom level you choose,
you might not be able to see all of the screen at the same time.
· Lens
mode. In lens mode, the area around the mouse
pointer is magnified. When you move the mouse pointer, the area of the screen
that's magnified moves along with it.
· Docked
mode. In docked mode, only a portion of the screen
is magnified, leaving the rest of your desktop unchanged. You can then control
which area of the screen is magnified.
WHEN YOU ARE ON THE INTERNET -
Another quick way to enlarge the text and what you are viewing on your monitor
is to use the CTRL and + key to enlarge and CTRL key and – to reduce what is on
the monitor… This doesn’t
work however when you are in various application programs such as word, excel,
power point etc - then you will have to simply ZOOM the page.
