Printing a window completely

Post by KENNY KRUPNICK »

I'm having a problem with printing a window of tab. When I printit off, the right side doesn't print all on the sheet. What can I do to maybe either restrict the size smaller, or something to get the whole page to print? There's something I'm not doing to get this correct. Help me someone. Image

you could try reducing the margin sizes in the 'page setup' option, if you can find that.

Click on "File" on the top bar (where File, Edit, View ... reside)
Then go to "page setup"
Then find in the dialog boxes the radio buttons for "portrait" and "landscape".

Check "landscape".

Then print the page. Check what it's gonna look like by trying "Print Preview" first.

The page will print sideways but you'll get the whole web page width. You just get more pages.

If the tab is split across pages you may try copying the material to something like "Microsoft Word" and inserting pagebreaks.

Kenny,

Maybe your "margins" are set too much. Try in Internet Explorer, going to FILE --> PAGE SETUP and then putting 0 or 0.25 for your side margins. See if that helps...

Cheers!

Kenny-- It would help to know:
1. what printer you're using
2. what the margin settings are
3. how much is missing
4. file format (txt, rtf, doc, etc)
Some printer drivers contain a setting to 'fit to page' or words to that effect. Or. if using the 'landscape' suggestion, most allow you to use different standard paper sizes (like 'legal' or 14in long) and also allow you to specify other custom sizes.

Depending on the file format/type, you might be able to select the tab data and change the font to a smaller size.

Attach a couple of the files to an email and I'll try to get them to print OK and will then show you the procedure. --Everett
