small fonts?

[MisterPresident]

Ok so we all know the usual tricks for making it look like you wrote more than you did, given a certian page limit. Extending margins, spread-out fonts, etc. But what can I do to make it look like I wrote less than I did?

 

[PurdueRy]

shrink margins

 

[Lonyo]

Yeah, the opposite of making it look like you wrote more....

in this case i think it would be better to go over it and trim the content rather than the layout.

 

[DnetMHZ]

Margins, line spacing, font size

 

[imported_Trippin315]

drop the font size a point or two.

Often teachers/professors require double spacing. But they'll never notice 1.5 line spacing. Thats what I always did.

I think if you drop the font size you are liable to piss off the reader.

Check all four of your margins and see if justifying your paragraphs help - sometimes it may actually take up more space, though. As somebody else mentioned, the best thing would be to actually review your writing and edit it down to the proper length.
