The problem with that is you very quickly get into the realms of having to pan about the page to read the end of each line. This requires a lot of hand to eye coordination. Not the best solution for someone with optical problems.
In the reading systems I made for the visually impaired, the text was always formatted so that whatever was on screen was sequential text. It was done by scanning in the text, OCR'ing it then displaying it in the size required using graphics on variable sized fonts. Imagine a small window

This gives the reader a dollop of text big enough to convey information.. now imagine just magnifying like this
The quick
now yo have to pan right until this disappears hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

jumped over ,,,,, ad nauseum..
so magnification is not he answer unless the text is justified to suit the magnification.
I buy a bigger screen to get bigger text. this is defeated by the use of higher resolutions  .
