Does Word have a feature similar to Word Pefect's "make it fit"?
Word Perfect has a great feature that allow you to "make it fit". you tell
the program how many pages you want a document to be and what you would be comfortable adjusting (margins, font, font size, etc) and it reformats the document to be the number of pages you select. this is particularly useful, for example when a letter has only one line or a signature on the last page. How does one do this in Word? -- Larry J |

Using the following method works best with short documents, such as letters
and memos, that only have a small amount of text on the last page. On the File menu, click Print Preview. Click Shrink to Fit . Note In order to shrink the document, Microsoft Word decreases the font size of each font used in the document. You can undo a Shrink to Fit operation by clicking Undo Shrink to Fit on the Edit menu. However, after you save the document and close it, there is no quick way to restore the original font size. -- Carol A.
