I find that what appears on screen is different from what appears on
paper. e.g. a cell may appear on 2 lines on the screen, but on 1 line
followed by a blank line on paper. I sometimes hack to truncate the
rendering of the text on screen, so it appears sensibly on paper. I
have
asked questions on such matters without getting anything useful. As
you
say, it's not even funny

I resolved to setting the col width[s] to match my page margins so what
I see on the sheet is what I see in PrintPreview. This is usually what
prints as well, but there's almost always some (minor) line spacing
issues on the printout.

I prefer to use Arial font because I find it's much crisper, clearer,
and easier-to-read than Tahoma, generally speaking. I hate that Tahoma
is the default for userforms and so I always make a point to set Arial
right away so all the controls inherit Arial.

Ultimately, the client dictates font[s] used because it reflects
branding. Not sure I agree with that since readability has higher
priority for me. What scares me that given the monumental amount of
info floating around about eyestrain and worker fatigue, one would
think people would smarten up about their reckless use of uppercase and
garrish colors!
