The reason I need this feature is, when I make manual for software users, my colleague suggested me something. He is a senior person, more than 50 years old. He said, that most software manuals in this world contain screenshots that senior people not able to read, because text in these screenshots are usually 50% or smaller of size of the main text font of the manual.
I can appreciate his comment. I'm over fifty too :(
The only solution I can think of is to reduce the size the way I described in the original post.
Your description reminded me of another possibility. If you can change the font size in the application (accessibility?) then enlarge it so the text fills the space, then you'll be able to shrink the image but still read the text.
There's probably an easier way. Use one of the high-contrast (e.g whiteeyes) colour schemes or one of those designed for the visually impaired. Many of the 'trendy' colour schemes you can download don't have enough contrast or are dependent on particular colour gradients or screen illuminations and hence do not map well to print. It is even worse when you do black-and-white 'proofs'. Have a look at http://opendesktop.org to find some high contrast and easy to read colour schemes. -- If you can't describe what you are doing as a process, you don't know what you're doing. -- W.
