The deviation of the polarization spectrum for the important cases of weak magnetic fields (where the Zeeman splitting is much smaller than the line width) and strong magnetic fields (where most photospheric lines are completely split) is considered. The method employs an analytical solution of the transfer equation which is adjusted to solar conditions. The 6000 lines which yield the most significant polarization within the spectral interval 3000-7000 A are considered, along with the contribution of 5000 faint lines. Wavelength variations of the polarization are determined with a 20-A spectral resolution. The polarization degrees which are expected for wide-band filters (including the UBV system) are presented.
