Currently I am using Adobe Acrobat 5, and I am trying to condense a document so that it prints at a very small font size, i.e. 12.5%. I have been unable to yeild any positive results. I tried accseeing the scaling option within print properties, however the option is greyed out.Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
 
I think that this would be possible only if your printer can handle printing 'thumbnails'. I don't think it is a function you can control within Acrobat unless your printer can do it. Perhaps that is why it is greyed out as an option. Selecting a differnt printer may allow it.
 
In the print properties dialog box, is there an option to scale to fit page, or reduce/enlarge to fit page, or something like that? It's possible this may be selected which might explain why the scaling option is unavailable. If that's the case, uncheck that option and see if the scaling option becomes available again.
