Hi Kim!

If your lines are displaying and reading properly, there's should be no need
to change this unless you have a problem. *smile*

Kim,
When you first press the z which opens the zoom dialog, Jaws should read you
which radio button is currently checked. Alternatively, you should be able
to tab past the radio buttons, and shift tab back to hear the announcement
of which one is selected. I use Window-Eyes, but I believe this should be
the case with Jaws as well. Generally, the default is 100.
