If your spreadsheet is small and difficult to read, there are a few options for magnification, allowing you to zoom in closer. This quick tip shows you how to zoom in and out and even select a section of your sheet to magnify a specific area.
(upbeat music) - [Narrator] If the text in your spreadsheet is too small to read, you can change the zoom to get a closer look. In the View Ribbon, click on the zoom button. Set the percentage you want to get a closer look at your sheet. Zoom to a smaller percentage to see the whole sheet at a glance.
Or, select the data that you want to look at and zoom to that selection. For even faster zoom control, use the zoom slider at the bottom of the window. Or, click on the percentage button to choose your specific zoom size.
