Resize page and contents (drawing and printed pages)

[SueB]

Is there a simple way to resize the contents, text, etc. from 11x17 landscape
to 81/2x11 landscape on both drawing and printed pages? I am working with a
drawing that is a cross-functional horizontal flow diagram, and I have not
been able to find an easy way to do this, other than pretty much re-creating
the flow diagrams and resizing the objects and text 1 by 1. I have tried
grouping the entire content of the page to resize, and it separates out the
cross-functional flow framework from the flow diagram contents.

Rather than do that how about changing the printer page settings to 8
1/2 x 11 and set the print zoom to fit on one page.

Paul, I have similar issues as described by SueB. However, I am trying to
copy a drawing of 8 1/2 x 11" to a new drawing of 60 x 36" to be printed on a
plotter. Is there an easier way to 'zoom out' the drawing to a desired size
so that it will fit into one page on the plotter. Your help will be very
much appreciated. Pakman

set the printer paper to the new size
then set the print zoom suit.
