Aha, looks like that could be the ticket. I just printed to a .ps file,
then fed the .ps to lp and got the doc printed (with large portions
chopped off, of course) on a card.

When you say "large portions chopped off" do you mean that the
information that should be on the 3x5 was scaled up to fit the larger
page?

Yes; the printout on the card was just a 3x5 chunk taken from the 8.5x11 page.

Maybe "print to file" has an option to scale small images to fit, or
not to scale.  Print from Adobe Reader has this option.

No, and besides, I don't want the whole page scaled. I want the text to stay the same size, just to reflow margins so it fits on the card.

Now I just need to learn more about PostScript, and which portions of
the file to change so that I can reformat the document properly.

Another thought.  Do you have the psutils suite?

I don't yet, but I'll check it out.

Thanks for the pointers!
