I have a full page that I have managed to scale down with a \resizebox. Unfortunately, after I discovered this in a MWE, I put it back in my document and the caption is now in the footer…
How do I account for the caption in my resize box or include the caption within the resize box?
MWE:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[letterpaper, margin=0.5in, includefoot]{geometry} % Advanced page geometry configuation
\usepackage{fancyhdr} % Used for header and footer creation
\pagestyle{fancy}
\fancyhf{} % clear all fields
\lfoot{Lorem\\Ipsum}\cfoot{dolor sit\\amet \\ \thepage}\rfoot{Rev. \#\\ \today}
\usepackage{tikz} % Flowcharts
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0.0pt} % removes line at top that comes w/ fancyhdr

Best Answer
The following method puts the caption inside a box and measures its height. Then the value for the height of the
\resizeboxcan be calculated.In
flowchartI have removed the additional\resizebox. Also I have commented the line end after\end{tikzpicture}. We are in horizontal mode, that means that space contributes to the width. Also I have removed the space after\input{./flowchart.tex}for the same reason.I have added option
showframefor packagegeometryto show the borders of the text body.\resizeboxis not too accurate. Therefore I had wrapped the contents in the figure inside an additional\vboxwith a small correction inside.\hspace{-0.3333em}cancels theinner sepof the left most text node.Update: I have moved it to the file
flowchart.tex, because it is a property of the flowchart. Just add the following line right before\begin{tikzpicture}:\nointerlineskipprevents additional glue between the picture box and the caption box.Update: The flow chart is only scaled, if it overflows the available width or height.
The example file:
Measuring positions
The second method uses package
zref-abspageto measure the positions that are written to the.auxfile first. In the second run, the correct positions are known and used.Update: This example is not updated regarding the scaling behaviour.
