    There is a way to edit the ascii version of the graphcap file
    and convert it to the binary graphcap file. I did this once,
    but neglected to repeat the procedure when NCARG got updated.

    I now take a different approach. Take the default postscript file,
    run it through ps2epsi, then scale the resulting eps file in some other
    application such as xfig. It is very simple in xfig - import as a
    picture object, scale it as desired, then export as postscript.
