SYMPTOMS
When you click the Shrink to Fit button on the Print Preview toolbar, Word
may repaginate your document several times. It may appear that Word is
repaginating your document in an endless loop.
CAUSE
Sometimes Word must perform several repagination operations to maximally
reduce the number of pages in a document. If you choose the
Shrink to Fit
button and Word is unable to reduce the number of pages in your document
after repaginating the document several times, one of the following
messages may appear:
After several attempts, Word was unable to shrink the document by
one page.
-or-
Word could not shrink the document by one page because the document is
already one page.
