    Angry Print to full page

    How can I stretch a spreadsheet to fit the page? If I try to make it one page by one page, it changes nothing. If I change the percentage, it becomes two wide...I am just trying to change the height so that it can be read on an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper.

    Re: Print to full page

    Hi,

    Go into page set-up and fit 1 wide x 1 tall and change the paper size to A4. Then drag out the borders as far as possible, but I think it will still be to small to read?

    That's just it, I don't have anything I can grab and pull. The only option I have is to move it.

    Re: Print to full page

    Autofit the width of col A, delete col B, and set the width of the rest of the columns to 2.5.

    Then do Page Setup, set the L & R margins to as small as your printer will allow, and fit to 1 page wide by 1 page tall.

    It's small, but readable.

    Please don't quote whole posts.

    For clarity, in the case when you're replying to a post earlier in the thread -- and then you delete all but the relevant lines.

    yeah, that's what I was doin, making sure the person knew I was talking to him...pretty self explanatory. Uh yeah, making the columns 2.5 means they don't print...any other suggestions??

    No, I don't.

    I did what I suggested and it worked fine for me.

    EDIT: Here's what I did.
