Excel page break defaults?
 
I cant seem to figure this one out. Its always the silly little ones that
get you it seems.

I was wondering if anyone has any ideas on this one. It is an Excel
document attachment to an email that I have saved on each users desktop.
From the €śPage Break Preview€ť view €¦.On one PC it opens fine. On the other
one it opens with the page break cutting off the right column of the
document. I have screenshots if anyone is interested. According to the
user, this happens often, and on a variety of diff Excel docs.

Details:
-2 different PCs
-Same Document
-Same OS
-Same Excel version and SP
-Same default printer
-Same Print drivers
-Every single checkbox in €śOptions€ť is the same (yes, I went through every
one)

It seems as though there is some sort of Auto-fit option that makes the
document fit into the printable area by default€¦..? She can manually move
the page break off the right of the page, but on a spreadsheet with 42 tabs
and 183 pages, it becomes a little tiresome.

The fonts within Escel are the same, but I did not check the font settings in
Windows. I doubt that would cause the problemm though.

when you print a section from each PC, does everything overlap? Several
years ago, I had Identical (supposed to be anyway) fonts with different
space settings.
