Yes, FAB 3000 can allow you to reduce pad sizes. Here's a quick sample movie (no sound) showing me perform the following:

Here's the notes from the tutorial movie...
1. Select only pads (using Selection Filter).
2. Use command "Grow / Shrink" (located in menu: Fabrication / Grow-Shrink...)
I will reduce pads by 80%... I could also assign absolute values if needed..
That's it... then export as Gerber, ODB++, or whatever format you require.
