Folks

I found a way to set the zoom level permanent if one opens an email message in its own window. However, I can't find anything for the reading pane. Does anybody know how to set the reading pane to 110% for all messages, even if close and open Outlook?

Hi,

We can not make the zoom change permanently for Reading Pane on Outlook side, but you can try to find some third-party add-in to achieve the goal.

As a workaround, we can convert HTML messages to Plain Text and then customize the font size for Plain Text messages. For more information, please refer:

Hope this helps.

If it's text, won't the images and any other formatting disappear?
