Provide an option to allow font size to be changed or customized and same in Microsoft Outlook 2016
Provide an option to allow font size to be changed in Microsoft Outlook 2016 including the font and colors for the folder pane. Also make it possible to customize the fonts for Mail, People, Calendar on module basis. Also, Allow user to make a permanent (default setting) change to the font and size template for mail created in Outlook 2016 under Windows 10, not just on a mail-by-mail basis.
Also, set a default font that is always applied to my tasks. They change depending upon the email moved to tasks.
Also, Please give us a way to make the fonts and lines darker on the email form so that they can be easier to see and use. They are just to light and hard to read.

This issue is important for anyone with aging eyes. We should not have to jump through hoops to make simple changes that make it easier to use your product!

With 4K screens, this feature becomes critical. When I use Remote Desktop to get to my office PC, everything in Outlook is tiny and almost unreadable. Some items allow adjustment of the font size to make them readable, but not all items, such as folder names. Absolutely need the ability to change the font size of folder names.

Qould like the ability to change the DEFAULT font size in both NOTES & CONTACTS. The font is so small it can be difficult to read.

Please, please! This should be under Accessibility. For older users or those who don't sit 12 inches from our screens, it can be hard to read the tiny font you use for menu items and folder names. Almost any website, I can zoom in and fonts get larger but not in my Outlook app (Windows 10). Yes, I can enlarge text within an email but it's all the navigation text that is tiny.

Adding my name to the list of those who have trouble seeing the fonts on the ribbon and on the folder names. Why can this not be adjusted within Outlook. I have my display settings set to 150% and that changed nothing on the Outlook display. I can see the emails just fine, it's the interface itself (especially email) that is not configurable. Why! Please fix this. Thank you.

Calibri is old. Time to move to Segoe UI. It's more pleasing to read.

I want to be able to change the font size in the folder pane and to get rid of the extra line spacing. I also want to change the font size of the simple calendar that is displayed over the task To-Do bar in Mail or Folder Bar in Calendar.

I couldn't agree more! Even the fonts used to set up the fonts are hard to see for most people over 40. Users should be able to set font size and darkness everywhere in Outlook, and not just to read individual emails.

Give users control of the size of ALL the fonts on Outlook, including the ribbon, folder names, & set up directions for mail & folders.

ask the outlook programmers to see if they can add the far left hand column to the other columns on which outlook lets you enlarge the fonts so that it is not such a strain to read...as it is right now, it is very very difficult to read the words "inbox" and "sent" and "outbox" etc....slows work down...thanks for trying.

Please set the folder control panel again so that it can be minimized (as it was before). With half the screen split, that's almost as big as the email text!

The font size needs to be adjustable in Outlook 365 I have a vision disorder that makes it virually impossible for me to read the Oulook screen when viewing the incoming messages. Zoom only works when reading pane is on and even then the portion of the screen that shows where and from whom the messages originated are too small for me to read.

The messages look so washed out with the light background colors and letter fonts. Maybe there is a way to change that and I just don't know it.

Currently you can only increase font size in a reading pane. But trying to look at a list of all mails in the default font size is too straining on the eyes. Please change this.

Necessary for ADA (Disability law)! The entire program should be able to be read, not just part of it. If Favorites are used, than they need to be SEEN as well.
