A friend has hooked an Epson printer to a Mac with a hardware device that
seems to convert the appropriate printer codes so that the Epson deals with
Imagewriter style data (it also converts serial to parallel).

Now, is there an easy way to have the Mac adjust the image size so that
the output is the same size as the Epson...  i.e., to take account of the
smaller dot size on the Epson?  This friend does not want to adjust a lot
of parameters in his word-processor; he'd prefer to have the fact of the
Epson be as invisible to his existing application as possible.

Any suggestions?  Especially free/shareware suggestions?
