    If I’ve understood you correctly – a screen grab of what you’re doing would help – you have Text on a Track above the Track of the Picture of your Paper? Yes? If so, Insert a New Parent Track above those Text and Paper Tracks and use the Parent Track Motion to Zoom in both. You won’t like the resolution.

    Create the text on the paper entirely in photoshop. Then drop that in Vegas and use the Event Pan/Crop feature
    to zoom in and manipulate any effect you desire.

    Do what Steve is suggesting. This is a better, Pro way of working. After all what you are trying to manipulate is a Graphic. And Graphics = A Graphics package – mostly.
