I should start off by saying I am a newbie to Visio.

I created a page on "large plotter printer paper" and now I can't scale it
down. Co-workers are telling me I have to start from scratch. Is there a way
to scale it to another paper format without restarting the entire diagram?

Thank you,

QB

You didn't mention what version of Visio. Drawing pagesize and printer
pagesize are two different settings and pretty much independent of each
other. You might want to check out file=>pagesetup=>pagesize.

I am using visio 2007.

1. I created a diagram on a D size page but wish to print it on a 8.5x11"
Letter. How would I do this?

2. I created a diagram on a D size page but wish to resize the diagram and
page to a 8.5x11" Letter. How would I do this?

Thank you,

I'd try File=>PageSetup=>PrintSetup=>PrinterPaper = letter
PageSize = same as PrinterPaper
Then adjust your drawing scale
