I know what Jason is asking for here. The "Shrink to Fit" feature is very
important for short letters a memos, and its absence from OpenOffice.org Writer
is one of the blockers preventing my employer from migrating from MS Office to 
OOo.

Here is the usage case:

You write a short memo. It overflows to a second page just slightly, maybe by
one or two lines.

In Microsoft Office (and presumable also this "ResumeMaker" that Jason
mentioned) you go to "Print Preview" and you will find a button labeled "Shrink
to Fit"

The shrink to fit button reduces the font sizes in the document until the total
page count has been reduced by 1.

A Macro that simulates this feature in OOo Writer has been written by Ian
Laurenson, and can be found at http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/hillview/OOo/
under the heading ShrinkToFit.sxw

Unfortunately my first attempt to test Ian's macro has failed, but I might be
doing something wrong.
