231244 2004-04-22 11:52:00 I have downloaded a genealogy pedigree chart which I can use in Word but once you have entered the details, you have to reduce the file by 64% before printing it. Can scale it down on printer but when I do I lose the first part of it. Word and printer are set up in Landscape. I can't reduce file with word 97. Is there a utility I can download that will do it? Am running windowsXP.
Also if I print to file rather than the printer, would that let me reduce it. Will be emailing it when finished to the person who requested it, but if I could print it out it would be really good for my own purposes.
Grateful for any help

231245 2004-04-22 14:14:00 Have you tried reducing the font size down.

Have you tried doing your chart in "tables" or even in "excel" ?
