Page Magnification
Also known as: Page Zoom, Web Page Magnification
An accessibility feature that enlarges the entire visual presentation of a web page, including text, images, and layout elements, to make content easier to see for people with low vision or visual fatigue. Unlike text-only size increases, page magnification scales all page elements proportionally. It can be implemented at the browser level, through operating system zoom features, or via dedicated magnification software. Page magnification is one of the most commonly used web accessibility adaptations, though excessive magnification may require horizontal scrolling that can reduce usability.
