I have no problem. The scroll bar handle does get smaller with multiple page files but is still 
quite usable on a 250 page document.

The handle is the same size for a specific document when opened in LibreOffice 3.5, OOo 3.3, 
Pages, Bean, or TextEdit.

What version of OS X are you using? (I have version 10.6.8) There is a change in scroll bars in 
Lion (Version 10.7).
