The [Intent section in Understanding 1.4.4 Resize Text](http://section) refers to the ability to allow users to enlarge the text on screen at least up to 200% without needing to use [assistive technologies](#dfn-assistive-technologies). This means that the [non-web software](#software) provides some means for enlarging the text 200% (zoom or otherwise) without loss of [content](#content-on-and-off-the-web) or functionality, or that the non-web software works with the platform features to satisfy this success criterion.</div>

The intent section refers to the ability for content to reflow (for vertical scrolling content at a width equivalent to 320 CSS pixels, or for horizontal scrolling content at a height equivalent to 256 CSS pixels) when user agent zooming is used to scale content or when the [viewport](#dfn-viewport) changes in width. For [non-web software](#software), this means that when users scale content, adjust the size of a window, dialog, or other resizable content area, or change the screen resolution, the content will reflow without loss of information or functionality, and without requiring scrolling in two dimensions; or that the application works with platform features that satisfy this success criterion.</div>

For example, standard user interface components on most accessibility-supported platforms already meet this success criterion when used according to specification.”
