Unclear question. What is "document"? .tex or .pdf?
If it is .tex:
- if it is for screen reading, where's the problem?
- else, it is for printing. If you are a serious guy, you'll send me a
.tex *designed* for A4 paper; otherwise, I can try to compile your
crap after adding an a4paper setting, but this will probably result
in ugly stuff such as overfull boxes.
If it is a .pdf:
- for screen reading, no problem;
- for printing, there are again several solutions:
* printing a letter document on A4 should be generally doable
without scaling because letter paper is shorter (in height) and
has almost the same width as A4;
* the document can be scaled before it is sent to the printer
(for instance, Acrobat Reader has a well-known option to do
that).
(but of course, for anything serious, you have to provide a document
in the paper size used for printing)
