    All my incoming e-mails have large inbedded pictures & images (when present). I have no idea what I may have done to cause this. Zooming doesn't work or trying to change the font size for incomings only. The images decrease alright but the text becomes tinier still. The text size seems unaffected. Any help to go back to the default normal size for images would be appreciated. Thank you.

    The size of the image from the sender plays an important role in this. Have you tried sending yourself a small image?

    Just for clarification, my OS is Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit with Office 2007 32 bit (don't think there was a 64bit version). My Outlook is is part of the Office 2007 Suite. The e-mails all look fine when forwarded onto others and viewed in their Outlook 2007 and my "Sent Items" e-mails are fine. I have also tried repair Office 2007 - no difference & uninstall/ re-install Outlook, still no difference. It must be something in my font settings on receiving e-mails(?) Thanks again.

    Your display may be set to 125%. Right click Desktop > select Personalize > click Display and set it to 100%.

    I want it at 125% and respectfully suggest that it is irrelevant for Outlook in this instance.

    It'd sure help if you tested it anyway;)

    As I thought, it makes no difference. Thanks for your help anyway, Steve.

    Thanks to everyone. In the end, I ended up reformatting and installing Outlook 2003 back. Everything is back to normal. Opens up OK on another PC I have which runs Outlook 2010
