    Question Printing: Page break preview - need help

    Hi,

    1) I'm trying to print a table that should fit into 2 pages wide, 1 tall. I go to page break preview and move the blue divider to where I want the pages to separate. However, this action only creates a second page break and the previous one doesn't disappear, thus making the document print into 3 pages rather than 2. I don't have this problem with all the documents, only some. Is there a trick you could give me?

    2) After setting a pring area and extending the margins in preview to the limits, the table I'm printing still looks very small compared to the paper size and kind of in the middle rather then evenly spread over the whole A4 paper sheet. How can I fix this?

    Thanks,
    Tatiana

    Hi Bryan,

    That's what I'm doing - 'Fit to Page', 1 Tall 2 Wide.
    It doesn't let me to divide the page where I want it to divide though. I'm trying "page break preview" to move the dividers, the problem is, the blue dividers do not disappear from the old place when I move them, they just break the table further to 3 or more pages. How can I move the page breaks manually?

    Thanks,
    Tatiana

    As per the attached, if you drag the page separator it releases the 'Fit to Page' and further adjusts the % size.

    Test with this, then re-try your own, check for any hardpagebreaks that you may have at the point (select either column and Insert, Remove Pagebreak) etc
