Layout looks different on various computers

[RaydenEG]

Hey all,

I am doing a project for somebody and I have done some work on their computer (Mac Excel 2008), saved it and brought it home to my own computer. When I load it up on my computer (Win 7 Excel 2010) the data is all obviously the same but the layout is slightly different.

My client is very particular about the way the data looks as this will be printed and presented. I am aware that my computer has a much higher resolution but I am surprised that I can load up the sheet on my machine and hit print and get a very different looking result than they get on their machine. This makes it very difficult to work on the end result with out actually sitting at their machine and adjusting column widths to have the data look the way they want.

Is there anything that can be done about this?

Thanks in advance

print settings and printer model will change aspect

I'd expect the diffference lies more in printers and drivers.
