Programmers and Web designers
Anybody that has ever tried to make something on screen
look really good soon found out that pixel-precise editing and aligning
simply cannot be avoided. The only question is how to do it quickly and
effortlessly? Since pixels are getting smaller and smaller due to
increasing resolutions, sometimes you need exactly the same thing as if
you were an old watchmaker - big magnifying lens revealing you the details
you are not able to see on your own. Nowadays, the solution is Desktop
Magnifier, with sophisticated options to customize and adjust it according
to your needs.
Poor sighted people
If you have problems with on screen reading because
letters are just too tiny, giving you headache, tired eyes and a real pain
in the neck, you belong to the second group of users that may find Desktop
Magnifier invaluable. Specially for this purpose, we have added a
smoothing option with various algorithms to make the enlarged text more
readable and pictures look nicer.
Other users
Besides two mentioned, most obvious groups of users,
Desktop Magnifier may occasionally be useful to anybody. From examining
pictures to showing a small detail to a larger audience, especially if you
have two or more displays attached to your computer.

Desktop Magnifier is a shareware product,
which means that you may evaluate it for 30 days before you either
purchase or uninstall it.
