Reduce font size in a document.

Hello guys. I've a bit of a problem here. So I have this document downloaded from the internet and I have to print it out but the problem is that it's text size is way too large due to which it is spanning over about 275 pages. Is there any possible way to reduce font size of certain elements which keeping their relative sizes? For example, headings should stay the same but paragraphs should be reduced to about 12px.
I'm using Acrobat X Pro.

PDF files were not meant to be edited in this way. For such large-scale
changes you'll need to edit the original source file, and then re-create
the PDF.

How do I change the font size of a document when I PRINT?

How to I change the font size of a document when I print it?

To specifically and fully answer your question, no, you absolutely cannot change the “font size” as a function of print.
First of all, there isn't a single “font size” associated with a PDF file (and we assume you are referring to a PDF file since this is an Acrobat forum).
Secondly, PDF is a final form file format meaning that the content is static in terms of location, size, etc. on the page. To change the point size of any particular text, you really need to go back to the source document and make the changes there.

Font size in Photoshop document looks larger than it should be?

I am designing a web site in Photoshop. No matter what font I use, the size looks too big. For example, I have to make my font size 6px in my photoshop document even though the actual font size i'm going to use on the website is 11px. My document size is 1024px by 768px. I am viewing at 100% and my screen resolution is set to 72 px/in. I have asked my instructor and he doesn't have this problem but doesn't know how to fix mine. Is there something in my preference i should change? I would really like to be able to use the actual font size in my document as I would for my actual site.
Also, this happens in both of my PC and the Mac at school. Let me know if there are other information I need to say. Thank you in advance!

Aside from what Noel said, keep in mind that font size covers the em box of a font, meaning its maximum upper and lower height, not just the visible content and that that relation is different for each font. In order to e.g. produce a 11px high glyph on a 72dpi device, the actual font may be designed with 14pt in mind and you will have to use that size.

Exporting to PDf reduces font size of one item only

I am using VS 2010 with the latest CR release. Within my crystal report I have a barcode (using IDAutomationHC39M) with set font size of 10. When I click on the "Export" button and choose PDF, all of the text stays the same except for the barcode which gets reduces to a font size of like 3 or 4 (its really tiny).
I can print it using Adobe PDF and the Barcode will stay the same font size of 10, but I want to avoid that if possible. What do I have to do to make the barcode export with the correct font size?

You will have to use it as a guide as it does not specifically address CRVS2010, but the patern is eh same...

How do I reduce font size on captions?

I want to use captions on my slideshows but the font is far too large. How do I reduce its size? At present the captions are far too intrusive. I am using PE9.
Judith

Hi,
In the slide show editor, select a slide and then click on the caption text in the slide. On the right, you should see options to change the text formatting including size. You can also drag the text box to a new location on the slide.
I am not aware of a global setting to change all the captions. Currently, the default size is variable, depending on the length of the text.
Hope that helps

Reduced font size in browser

All of the sudden some of my text is showing up a point or two smaller in Safari and in FireFox.
The font is Arial and all of the text was created in text boxes.
Even on the same page some of the text will be the correct size and some will be a reduced size.
The pages were all created in '08 and I have not had the problem until just recently.
I'm stumped.
Here's the site: http://carlisleantiques.net
Check out the "Philadelphia Secretary" in "Conservation"
I have tried copying the text to the clipboard, deleting the text box, creating a new text box and pasting the text back in. But the text still gets reduced in the browser.
I have noticed that the text will often come up the right size and then a split second later it gets smaller. What's going on?
David

Well I seem to have been able to figure out what was going on.
I tried increasing the font size in one of the text boxes and was surprised to find that the font size actually got even smaller in the browser! What has solved the problem is increasing the size of the text box. I think the browser was trying to render the correct size but didn't have the room to make it the full size. This is clearly a bug in iWeb '08. You shouldn't be able to make the text box too small like that. I also changed the setting to keep the text in the middle of the box so that I made sure there was room top and bottom. It has solved my problem, and maybe it will help someone else who has text showing up smaller than it should.

Windows7-how to increase page width & reduce font size

Compared to internet explorer, viewing each page on Firefox is difficult. Titles and images are overlapping and limited page width leaves blank columns on both sides, resulting in overlapping vertical text on the right side.

Reduce font size in Itunes 11 on Windows

Aaaargjh....why-oh-why does V 11 not have a simple way to reduce the font size? On a decent hi-res PC screen the whole screen is just jammed in because the font is too large. Can i change it without needing a PHD in astrophysics first? What are those dudes at Apple thinking? Indeed, are they thinking at all about the user?
Some bright spark out there must have found a fix....i would love to hear it.

How do i reduce the size of a document?

HP Photosmart Premium
Mac Book Pro

Hello,
you may be able to reduce the document size to print on a specific paper size using several methods, depending on what application your printing on.
For example, you can modify the 'Page Setup...' options by hitting COMMAND+P t bring up the Print Handling Dialog, and ensuring the paper size (e.g. Normal) and the "Scale" is set 100% (or smaller).
Other dialogs/apps/printers may provdie a 'Scale to fit paper size' checkbox as well.
Let us know if you have a particular application in mind.
Hope this helps

Reducing font size on CD insert

I back up my iTunes tracks and playlists onto CD, and I like to make them look as close as possible to "real" CD's (no slight intended). But often even moderate length track and artist info is cut off, replaced by ellipses. It insists on using only one printed line per track, and there seems to be no way to continue the info on a second line (i.e., hitting "return" makes no difference).
I notice, however, that if there are about 25 tracks on the playlist, the type size is automatically reduced, and previously truncated lines often can fit fully onto the line.
So my question: How can I achieve that when I have only 15 or so tracks?
Grazie

This may not help you since it sounds like you want to use the iTunes built in cover print functions, but I always found the choices iTunes offered a bit limiting. Therefore I simply select all on my playlists then past the list into a spreadsheet or other work processing or image editing program in order to get the tracklisting to print out how I want them to, now how Apple allows me to do.

Image Capture - How do I reduce file size of scan document?

I am using image scan. I scan the file (about 7 pages) and it comes to 16.8M. I cannot email it at that file size. How do I get the scan to be less detailed or so to allow me to email it? I tried messing with DPI, etc... that didnt work.
When I went into Finder to compress it to a .zip the file size did not change.
The person on the other end cannot receive files >10M.
Thanks
Nick

I figured it out if anyone needs it in the future. In the details section there are 3 ways to scan. Text, Color or Black and White. Choose text and increase DPI a tad and it made file size 194K.
