How can I print something in really really small print?

I want to print up something really small for a real life game of "Clue" and want to print so small that it can only be read under a microscope.

I'd like to keep the paper area size very small so that it will roll up and fit inside one of those "plastic" capsules used for aspirin or other OTC drugs.

    Type it into Word using regular size print, then drag over it and type into the font area the smallest number that would register there, which would be one.

    You can't use a regular printer to print microscope sized prints, regular printers are not meant for that and are not accurate enough.

    You can try creating a regular sized image (in photoshop or paint.net) and than scale it down to to 1 inch by 1 inch and try to print it, but i doubt the result will be any good.

    Most standard printers wont support such small fonts. (To be read under microscope.) You will need an industrial quality very high resolution printer.
