Just as many photocopy machines have a reduce/enlarge feature, Microsoft Word offers different ways to scale a document for printing, enabling you to avoid adjusting margins (margin: The blank space outside the printing area on a page.) or line breaks.

Note  When you scale a document for printing, the changes only occur when you print. Word does not change the settings in the document itself.

1. On the File menu, click Print.
2. Under Zoom, click the option you want in the Scale to paper size box.

   For example, you can specify that a B4-size document prints on A4-size paper.
