But I'm beginning to think that the base size range limits I was lamenting about isn't so much hard coded into LyX as perhaps dependent on the installed document classes??? > using b5, making a .pdf and using Acrobat's ability to > scale .pdfs for display on-screen or print will get one > quite large type. Now that's an interesting concept... I can't say I'm fond of the idea of using an actual adobe proprietary tool on my linux box. (I much prefer open source stuff)... But do you know if the linux version of acrobat is willing to print the "zoomed" image as displayed rather than printing the original unscaled image??? Maybe I'll have to make an exception and install it... Or better yet if by chance you know of an open source linux pdf viewer that will print the scaled image, I'd rather try that first. I ask cause I already tried using a custom page size of 4.25"x5.5" and then using kpdf to zoom the resulting pdf to 200% but printed output wasn't scaled... ############################################################# ##_if_you'd_prefer_an_clearsigned_".asc"_text_file_of_this_## ##message_as_an_mime_encoded_attachment,just_ask_me_while__## ##it's_STILL_IN_my_outbox_folder_._._._=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+;-)_## #gpg sig for: Joe (theWordy) Philbrook DSA key ID 0x6C2163DE# # You can find my public gpg key at http://pgpkeys.mit.edu/ # ############################################################# -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFIGzSkRZ/61mwhY94RAvqPAJ9yEyYCpTKtE/z9100zY4GKJyNpUgCgxq0z YejznPO1LUtFZsvZwPT3z+o= =JiL+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- | ~^~ ~^~ | <?> <?> Joe (theWordy) Philbrook | ^ J(tWdy)P | \___/ <<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>>
