What is the best way (or any way) to place a screen shot
or other bitmaps into a word processor (like MS Word),
and proporionally reduce the bitmap, and then print it 
on a Laserwriter or other higher resolution device so 
that the PIXELS them selves are reduced, not just the bitmap
(this way the bitmap is still clear on a high resolution
output device).  Printing bitmap on a Laserwriter, and having
the Laserwriter reduce the image works great, bu how about
reducing the size of a bitmap to start with, placinging
in a word processor document, and then printing it out.
(The only thing I get is a crappy looking bitmap).
