How to Edit Zoom on Chrome
Google Chrome's "Zoom" setting magnifies or shrinks the size of a Web page on your screen. You will need to do this when a site's font or images are too large or small to read on your screen fully. Chrome contains two zoom options. The first changes the zoom level only for the current page, while the second modifies it for all pages that you access using the browser.
