Scaling Documents

You can enlarge or reduce documents to match the output paper size, such as reducing a document created in letter size to print on statement, or enlarging a document created in statement size to print on letter.
There are two methods for scaling a document: select the output size of the document to scale it automatically, or specify the scaling value manually.

  • Depending on the printer model you are using, you may not be able to magnify the document to the optimum ratio for the selected page size.
