Compiz has a zoom option that is quite flexible.

| 
| In other words, if I had two documents, one with 10pt font and the
| other 
| with 20pt, the person would have the same difficulty reading both. 
| However, if I were to change the 10pt font document to be boldfaced,

| 
| What would be the best option(s) to use to meet her needs?  Is there
| one 
| version of linux that integrates with $DESKTOP than the other?  Is
| there 
| a linux/desktop combo out there, specifically designed for vision 
| challenged people?
