  with ketchup i think there is enough reduction that
using pints will be taking up a fair amount of tomatoes.

  with just a few lids to work with i'd fill the pints
up to the recommended head space (about an inch or so).

  for the way we use ketchup a pint really isn't that
much.

  check the stores regularly when you are out for lids.
we see them once in a while and also had a shipment of
canning jars (several pallets worth) come in recently.
