I use GF also.  I usually enlarge in 1" steps up to the final size - 
going from 11x14 up to 24x30.  I'd like to do 1% steps, but my 
workstation is way too slow.  The final step from, like, 22"x28" to 
23"x29" takes 15 minutes on my PIII/733MHz/512MB RAM.  Now I'm 
lusting after a P4/3GHz with at least 2 GB RAM.  What size step 
increase do you use?  And do you know if there is any way to re-
invoke the GF dialog box without having to do a Save As ... followed 
by Open of the .STN file?
