Zoom Object

         
Multiple objects Zooms (Zoom)

Contains magnification options (for example, the zoom percentage) for a window or pane. The Zoom object is a member of the Zooms collection.

Using the Zoom Object

Use the Zoom property of the View object to return a single Zoom object. The following example sets the zoom percentage for the active window to 110 percent.

ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.View.Zoom.Percentage = 110

Use Zooms(index), where index identifies the view type, to return a single Zoom object. The view type specified by index can be one of the following WdViewType constants: wdMasterView, wdNormalView, wdOutlineView, wdPrintPreview, wdPrintView, or wdWebView. The following example sets the magnification for the active window so that an entire page is visible.

ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.ActivePane _
    .Zooms(wdPrintView).PageFit = wdPageFitFullPage

The Add method isn't available for the Zooms collection. The Zooms collection includes a single Zoom object for each of the various view types (outline, normal, page layout, and so on).
