changing page size and contents

[Glenn]

I have an 8 1/2 x 11 Landscape Document. The document contains a flow chart
with several text boxes.

I need to change the page size to 5.5 x 8.5.

When I try to do it the page size changes, but the contents don't reduce.

Is there a way to have the contents reduce proportionately to the new page
size?

Click the Select Objects button on the Drawing toolbar and drag to
select all the text objects (on a page) at once. Then choose Format>Text
Box. On the Size tab, specify a suitable value in percent (less than
100) for Width and Height. For example, you could try 50% for both to
reduce the size of each text box to 50%.

If the pages also contain text, you may have to select it and decrease
the font size. If you used styles for text formatting, you should of
course modify those instead.

Clarification: If you used AutoShapes rather than text boxes, you must
of course click AutoShape on the Format menu, not Text Box.
