I cant get 10m in my basement .....I have targets sized for 6m .....but I would like to shoot as close to 10 as I can get.......How would I size a target for 7.5 meters and print it of on my computer and what size should it measure so I can see if its right

Best method is to download the scatt software which is free and print a scaled target from there - you can pick whatever distance you want.

I have copied some targets on the backside of other targets recently.
Worked fine: professional paper quality :-)

After downloading the scatt software and printing to your distance as mentioned, you can do a bit of copy/paste and end up with something like this to save paper.
At five shots per bull you get one match per page.

That might be OK if all you want to do is save paper/money but IMHO it really doesn't get anywhere near replicating the correct sight picture.

edit note: .................unless you then cut the sheet up and use the individual targets with a suitable backer.

You can play also with an excel (MS) file I have prepared for the Hign Noon Postal Competition many years ;-) ago. i do not remember if Scatt files take into account that target scales, but pellet not at all (it is still 4,5mm). This excel file application takes it into account:
