I'm working with a visually impaired person who requires really big font sizes.

Zooming the read pane does not work for her when emails contain medium to large size images.

This is because - by the time the text is big enough to read - the now-zoomed images force the use of the horizontal scrollbar. And scrolling back and forth all the time makes it quite difficult to read the text.

I've solved the problem for her, when she is using Outlook's online version. Rather than zooming the entire page, I inject a
CSS: 
*:not{img){font-size:48;}
CSS statement into the message body. This increases the text size, without affecting any images on the page.

Is it possible to do the same sort of thing (using VBA or ???) with Outlook's desktop version?

TIA ~ Jeff
 
Not sure if it will help since it is quirky, but try Settings/Ease of Access - move the text slider
 
Thanks @Vincenzo

Do you mean in the Windows System Settings? I've adjusted this for the system as a whole. But what I'm looking for now is something that's tightly scoped to Outlook's Read pane only - so I can set text in that particular pane in Outlook, without impacting any images the pane might hold.
