README
This package calculates LaTeX settings for 
arbitrary font and page sizes, helpful when producing documents for 
people with low vision.  Compatible with any other LaTeX package and 
avoids the usual drawbacks of giant print (less weight in the font etc) 
by taking the approach of typesetting on small paper and then using 
magstep.  Can also help for typesetting posters.

latex-papersize – Calculate settings for any font and paper size

The package’s typical use is when preparing printed material for users with low vision.  The most effective way of doing this is to print on (notional) small paper, and then to magnify the result. This package calculates and applies the settings for various font and paper sizes.  Both a modern .sty file and a legacy Python script is included.
