The personalization of our system and its components will always be one of the most practical ways to impose our style since each of us is a different world and it is for this reason that we find various themes, templates , effects and other elements that will help that the work is mea enjoyable and fun..

When we talk about Outlook, which is part of the Office family , we should know that we are talking about one of the most common and popular applications for messaging work (emails), contact management , events, special dates and much more. . But by default Microsoft defines parameters for the application which can not always be to our liking, one of these, and perhaps one of the most essential, is the size and type of source which for Outlook 2016 and 2019 is Segoe UI with a 8 point size:

Outlook gives us the opportunity to change these values ​​in a simple way and for this reason TechnoWikis will explain how to carry out this process in Outlook 2019 but the same process applies for Outlook 2016.
