I don't know if this is really the right place to post this, but I noticed posts about word-processing were generally posted in this section.
I printed my thesis for university, complying with my university guidelines for thesis (A4, 3 cm on each margin, 1,5 interline spacing etc etc).
I decided to use Word 2011 because the built-in bibliography tool really came in handy.
Now I'm publishing my thesis with publishing house now, and they want me to convert it to A5, and since I'm converting it anyway to a different format, I'm not keeping the ridiculous broad margins and interline spacing, I should also change character size.
I'd hate to do it manually with word, because the document has several sections breaks which allowed me to put pages vertically, and it would take a lot of time just to perform a big copy-and-paste (it's 155 pages).
Is there a desktop publishing software I can use that will convert such a Word document (A4, 3 cm margins, 1,5 interline) to a completely different PDF/Word document (A5, narrower margins, narrower interline, smaller font)?
(I used styles for different headers and plain text, it'd be great if the software could recognize them)
I hope mine isn't just vain aspiration, I can't imagine anything more boring to do.
Thanks in advance,
