Oh my, that is such an elegant solution - on the order of the that padawan that figured out that the planet's records were deleted from the library!

You can print it to a new PDF file. There is a "scale" option that is set to 100 by default, I assume you could use that and set it to 25 or whatever.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Just to add to what others have said, Win10 ships with a PDF printer by default. Of course, the PDFs it prints are way too large in file size. But it'll work just to test the theory. And there are a few free PDF printers online that do a better job for the real deal after the testing is done.

I use SumatraPDF and under settings>options one can set the initial zoom on opening from fit width, fit page, fit contents (?) or almost any %age you want.

In Adobe Acrobat, you can change the settings in File | Properties | Initial View | Magnification to anything you want and then save it.
If you can't do that, use one of the other alternatives.
It might be a good idea to inform the person generating these (if possible).

Hello all,
Time ago I used Movie Maker to cut... some video files... now I've seen that this is not included with windows 10...
In case you have to use a free video editing tool... what would you recommend?
Thank you all!

I wouldn't go so far as to recommend it, but I use VirtualDub.

Thank you Harold! I'll take a look at it.

Snap! It's a goodie all right!

I've had a lot of success with Avidemux - ignore the name, it works with most formats - it's certainly the fastest I've seen at cutting / joining, and because it copies streams where at all possible it also doesn't reduce the quality in the way that some do.
It's also free under the GNU licence: www.avidemux.org
Extracting a chunk is simple:
Open the file (CTRL+O or "File...Open"
Move the slider to the start point. Press the "A" button
Move the slider to the end point. Press the "B" button.
Set the output format (annoyingly, it always defaults to AVI)
Save the file (CTRL+S or "File...Save") under a new name. This normally takes seconds or a minute.
Done.

Thank you OG! I'll try it on a VM.

IIRC, the Windows Live 2012 tools (which include Movie Maker) will also install on Win10. If you have a copy of the full installation (not the web install), it should install and run fine.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I second that. I'm running it right now on Windows 10. Works same as always. However, Microsoft this year disable the full download link for Windows Live Essentials 2012. Therefore, you have to do some creative google searches to find it. The file name is "wlsetup-all.exe." Watch out, because it comes in many different languages. So, you might have to download a few to find the language you want. The English version I have is 134,112KB.

Thank you, but I prefer something I could use for long even there are chanes in windows... a pity because it worked well for what I needed...

After Effects has a free 30-day trial. After that's it's $20 a month. If you're serious about video editing, it's worth it. If it's just a hobby or for fun then maybe not, still have a free trial though.

I'm not serious at video editing, it happens from time to time, I need to be able to edit videos a little, nothing special, add titles, remove parts... fades...
Thank you for your suggestion though.

You're totally welcome. Any time.

I've not tried many of the others suggested here, but I use Hitfilm Express
It's free and has a great community.

Thank you Paul, I'll take a look at it!

I finally gave up on free and purchased Cyberlink Power Director. It was about $70, but does everything I need and has decent tutorials. The free ones always seemed short on a few features that I wanted.

I prefer going the free way, but thank you for the suggestion, I'll take a look at it if they have a demo version that can be tried...

I'm running it on windows 10. Not sure how I got it but. . .can't remember. ..but I use it somewhat regularly on windows 10 with no probs.

OK, second one to say the same, I'll search for a download link and see if I can get it working... anyway it will not be my first choice as it is clear that is being left aside by Microsoft.
Thank you very much for your suggestion!
