The same worksheet has different page numbers for different users
Hi all,
I have a problem where two users opening the same file and having the same page set up, end up with printed documents of different page counts when viewed through print preview and when printed. The only difference is that one user is on a W2K machine, the other on Windows 95. Has anyone any suggestions? |

The first suggestion is quite obvious (upgrade the '95 system) - but I would expect the difference in page lengths (I presume the '95 system fits less data to the page, thus producing more pages) would be attributed to Win2000 having a better grasp of variable width fonts. -- Bryan Hessey ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bryan Hessey's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=21059 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=390834 |

You will struggle to get them the same. Excel is not causing this, it is the print driver. You may try and get the same version from the printer manufacturers website, if they use the same type, but it is probable you won't be able to get the same driver for the operating systems you are using -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England HIS "michael" wrote in message oups.com...

Thanks for that Bryan, but the reverse appears to be true. The 95
machine produces a smaller document! . These are quite large spreadsheets, so on the 95 machine you get 151 pages printed and on the W2K machine 153. I am trying to get them to move the data into a database where the printing can be a bit more controlled so this might be push needed. Thanks Michael |
