Layout on print preview

hi all

How do i change the size of columns please when I go to print preview. On my chart I have a WBN colunm with my own numbers in (1-2768) that I can set to a width of 10. When I do a print preview though, the column is so wide, it must be about size 30 easy and it makes my page look messy.

Can anyone please advise how to format the column widths for printouts?

Many thanks

    Hi Christine

    Have you tried to print the chart anyway - sometimes the preview does not replicate the actual printed layout.

    Otherwise highlight the column and right click to show properties.

    In table definition there is a box showing column width - set this to your required size.

    There is also function that sets the column width to fit largest font in Print > Appearance > Spreadsheet > Fit largest font.

    With longer text strings you can set the column to wrap the text.

    I hope this helps.

    Best regards

    Hi Mike

    Many thanks for your reply.

    I have had to renumber everything again and this time, the column is better fitted to the width of the WBN number and now it prints out with a reasonable sized width column!

    I dont know what I did but it now works :)
