Pretty much. The size of the buttons cannot be changed, but what you see on
the Ribbon does vary with the width of the Word window (there's more detail if you have more room for it). If you're not running Word maximized, you might want to try that to see if it helps. Otherwise, changing the screen resolution is the only way to make buttons and text larger; just be aware that you will see less detail. -- Suzanne S.

Thanks. Please consider making that an option in future versions for those
with poor vision and an unsteady hand -- .. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Pretty much.

Well, I don't have anything to do with it; I'm just a user like you.
