Make a copy for and make it smaller all round (9)
I believe the answer is:
reproduce
'make' is the definition.
(I know that reproduce is a more specific form of the action make)
'a copy for and make it smaller all round' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'copy' could be 'repro' (I've seen this before) and 'repro' is present in the answer.
'it' could be 'e' ('e' can mean 'electronic' which is similar to 'IT') and 'e' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'duc' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for reproduce that I've seen before include "Procedure (anag.)" , "To propagate" , "Procreate or make a copy" , "Make a copy of (something)" , "Ape" .)
