Thank you Giovanni.
I have tried your idea : Document -> Font -> Advanced
but there is no « Advanced » in my ''Document -> Font’’ menu.
So, i am still looking for a solution to reduce the number of pages.
The idea of Joris (magnification) sounds great for me. I imagine that a 98%
reduction of the font size would make the job.
Does anyone know how to apply a 0.98 magnification of the font ?
Thank you for your attention,
Best regards,
Richard
