Increases or decreases the magnification of the view in the current viewport.
You can change the magnification of a view by zooming in and out, which is similar to zooming in and out with a camera. Using ZOOM does not change the absolute size of objects in the drawing. It changes only the magnification of the view.
Command line enter Zoom Or Z, the following prompts are displayed.

Zooms to display all visible objects and visual aids.
Adjusts the magnification of the drawing area to accommodate the extents of all visible objects in the drawing, or visual aids such as the grid limits (the LIMITS command), whichever is larger.
Extents #
Zooms to display the maximum extents of all objects.
The extents of each object in the model are calculated and used to determine how the model should fill the window.
In #
Magnifying or enlarging a portion of the drawing viewport so that you can view details more closely.
Out #
Reducing the magnification level of the drawing viewport, effectively making the objects within the drawing appear smaller on the screen.
