in article <1066@aucs.UUCP>, I say:
> Word also has this reduction option (accessed using shift-Page Setup).
> It even automatically scales the paper size when you select it. However,
> when you print, it *does not scale the fonts*, only the margins. So
> text is clipped off on all four margins, and of course, its in 14 point,
> not the required 7 point. Is this a bug in Word or is
> this the way its supposed to work? Is there a work around? Is it fixed
> in 3.02? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I posting a follow-up to my own question just to mention that page preview
does seem to do the reduction properly. It is only when the
printing takes place that things mess up. Consequently, I
would deem this is indeed a bug, not a "feature".
