The SharePoint Text Size Zoom web part gives users direct control over their individual SharePoint display, enabling them to quickly and easily change text font size without having to change list or view settings. This customizable web part contains three different zoom options displayed as a set of buttons, allowing for quick text size increases and decreases, as well as a revert option to restore the text to its original font size. The SharePoint Text Size Zoom web part helps make lengthy SharePoint lists more accessible and easier on the eyes without requiring complex changes to site settings.

When you have to work with SharePoint sites several hours per day, it can be exhausting and difficult to read the content in text-heavy documents. But, with SharePointBoost’s Text Size Zoom web part, reading large quantities of text is more manageable. It provides a user-friendly way to make SharePoint sites more accessible, which especially useful if people with different reading habits are accessing your page. Everybody can adjust the size of the text so that they feel comfortable reading it.

To use it, first add the web part onto the page.

Then select SharePointBoost Text Size Zoom and click "Add".

Once this is done, you can find the web part on your page. You can change the size of all the text on your page according to your preferences.

So if you feel like the text size is too big, just decrease the text size by clicking the smallest button of the web part. The smallest font size will be indicated by graying out the decrease font size button.

If you prefer a larger font size, click the largest button of the web part. As with the decrease font size button, the increase font size button will be grayed out once the maximum text size is reached.

To restore the default font size, simply click the middle button of the web part.

Purchase FAQ

Questions about Licensing:

• What is the difference between a Server License and a Site Collection License/Farm License?
  • Currently, we can provide Server License, Site Collection License and Farm License:
  • Each WFE will require a Server License (For SharePoint 2007: all servers running the SP Web Application service will need to be licensed; for SharePoint 2010: all servers running the "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Web Application" service will need to be licensed). SPB Server Licenses do NOT limit the number of end-users.
  • A Site Collection License (with end-user number limit) can be applied to one site collection only, you would need to make sure the number of end-users is within the end-user number limit provided by your license;
  • A Farm License can be used across all site collections within a SharePoint farm; however the maximum number of users within each site collection is limited by the end-user number limit provided by your license. For example, a 400-end user Farm License means that the number of users within a site collection should not exceed 400.
  • To find out the number of end-users you have in your site collection/farm, please check the license management page (this will appear after you install the trial version of our software on your SharePoint servers), or download and run the free End User Viewer Tool available here: http://www.sharepointboost.com/end-user-viewer-tool.html.
• Which type of license should I choose?
  • Server Licenses are better if you would like to use the product without site collection or end-user restrictions.
  • A Site Collection License/Farm License is better if you only want to use the product in one site collection/farm and the number of end-users is unlikely to grow rapidly or change frequently.
  • If you are still unsure as to which license type is best for you, please email sales@sharepointboost.com for assistance.
• What are "end-users" and how do they affect my Site Collection License/Farm License?
  • End-users do NOT affect Server Licenses. An end-user count is only needed for a Site Collection License or Farm License.
  • An end-user is defined as any user who has access to, or has accessed any site in your Site Collection/Farm at any point in time, either directly (e.g. signing in) or indirectly (e.g. assigning him a task). And the number of end-users in the site collection means the total number of users across all sites in the site collection.
  • Once a user has accessed a site in the site collection/farm, he is counted, regardless of whether or not this user is active on the site where the product is used. For example, while you may only have 50 users who would need to use the product on Site A in the site collection, there are 360 users accessing Site B (including the 50 accessing Site A), making a total of 360 users with access to the site collection. Since Site A and Site B are in the same site collection, you would need to purchase a license for at least 360 users. SPB licenses increase in increments of 100 users, so if there are 360 people who have access to the site collection, you will need to purchase a 400 end-user license.
• If the current end-user number exceeds the end-user number allowed by my Site Collection License/Farm License, what will happen?
  • Please note that end-users do NOT affect Server Licenses.
  • If the current end-user amount exceeds the amount of end-users allowed by your Site Collection License/Farm License, the original functions and settings of the software will NOT be influenced until you change them (e.g. additions, deletions, modifications, etc.)
  • You can either use our End User Viewer Tool to delete some inactive or disabled SharePoint users (http://www.sharepointboost.com/end-user-viewer-tool.html) or upgrade your license with more end-users.The cost of a license upgrade is equal to the price difference between the old and new licenses, plus a standard fee of 50 USD applied to all upgrates submitted. For example, if you had purchased a 200 end-user license for $500 and now you want to upgrade to a 300 end-user license (Price: $600), you only need to pay the difference (600-500=$100) plus the standard upgrade fee ($50), therefore in total $150. It also applied to Farm License.
• What will happen if I buy a new server or add another server? How will this affect my license?
  • Please note that adding an additional server/replacing an old server with a new one will NOT affect Site Collection Licenses/Farm Licenses. Please contact sales@sharepointboost.com for more information only if your Site Collection ID/Farm ID has changed.
  • However, if you are using Server Licenses for an SPB product and you subsequently add an additional WFE to your environment, you will need to purchase another Server License. Also, if you elect to replace an old server with a new server, and the Server Code subsequently changes, you will need to contact sales@sharepointboost.com for more information.
• What is Premium Annual Support? If I buy it, what do I get?
  • For detailed information regarding SharePointBoost's Premium Annual Support plan, please visit our support page.
  • Premium Annual Support must be renewed each year. Support fees are charged per license per year.
• How can I find my Server Code or Site Collection ID/Farm ID?
  • To find your Server Code or Site Collection ID/Farm ID, please check the license management page (this will appear after you install the trial version of our software on your SharePoint servers – for help finding this information, please email support@sharepointboost.com, or download and install the free License Management Center here: http://www.sharepointboost.com/licensecenter.html.
• What is the price for DEV/Test environment? Is there any discount?
  • SharePointBoost offers 50% discount off the list license price for DEV/TEST environment when customers purchase license for their production environment.
• Do I have to pay for updates as new versions of the product are released?
  • Do I have to pay for updates as new versions of the product are released?
  • A minor release contains bugs fixes and minor feature changes (e.g. 1.0 to 1.1). Major releases include significant feature additions and enhancements (e.g. 1.x to 2.0), and Major releases (usually with significant functionality added) require the payment of an upgrade fee. However, if you purchase our Premium Annual Support plan, then all major and minor releases are free for one year.
• Do I need to apply for a new license if the site collection ID/farm ID/server CODE has been changed?
  • Yes. Since the license is generated based on the specific site collection ID/farm ID/server CODE, which means, once the site collection ID/farm ID/server CODE is changed, the original license CODE would be invalid as well. You need to contact our sales team(sales@sharepointboost.com ) for further assistance.
