Norm,

Thank you for your reply. Is there any esay way I can implement scalefit by
customizing the stylesheet ?
I do not know much about DSSSL, but I am eager to learn and try if you could
give some indications and/or point me to the relevant stylesheet
module/location.
Also another quick question: in what stylesheet module can I find the code
for the headers/footers of the print document ?

Looking forward to hearing back from you soon,

Stéphane Bline.
