The Problem: I publish EPubs but some readers still clamor for PDFs, in which the font size is set in stone. I can convert them to PDF but then the font size is set in stone, too small for some, too large for others. A pain it would be to manually convert plural versions, each time resetting Calibre's base-font size only for the PDFs.
My Question: How might I, via Perl, read in a single, Calibre-generated PDF at the default base font size, and iterate an output of two additional PDFs, each of successively smaller sizes at, say, 75% and 50% of the base...or 10pt and 8pt...whatever?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
