    Center four circles the size of the incut corner, one over each corner. Select a circle and the rectangle and Arrange > Combine Shapes > Subtract Shapes.

    Do this for each corner.

    Or, group the four circles and only do the subtract shapes operation once.

    Just seemed to me nobody actually understood the OP's problem which wasn't how to subtract circles from a box, but how to stop the resulting corners getting stretched when changing the size of the shape. Presentation is what I do well. Make the most of it, my cards are marked http://mail.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/m...ticons7/32.gif

    Agree, nice touch!
    The script font is great, very clear. Which font have you used?

    It's called "Segoe Print". I like it for presentation because it, in addition to the torn note pad sheet, adds a human quality to the content, yet is eminently legible. It's a Microsoft official font and is shipped with Vista. If you want it for free you get it if you download Windows 7 beta:
