Excessive white space at bottom of form when printing.
I am trying to print an Excel spreadsheet and keep it on a single page. All
margins are set at 0. The print looks good on the top and both sides, but there is excessive white space at the bottom of the form. I found a setting when printing that indicated it would print to edge, but this didn't seem to do anything. Is there any way to get Excel to print more of the 8 1/2 X 11 landscape sheet? Another thing that might have helped would be to somehow get Excel to allow smaller increments in the cell width (i.e. each cell is progressively wider going across the page. When I set these up, I used the drop down to pick the next biggest width for each cell. Thanks for the help!! Ken K. -- akkrug |

Have you found the "fit to N by N pages" feature in the Print Dialog?
Zero margins could cause a problem as most printers need something to grab and this part of the paper is not printable. In the 'good ole' COBOL days, we talked about 'logical' and 'physical' pages. best wishes -- Bernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme remove caps from email "akkrug" wrote in message ...

I haven't found that setting unless you are talking about the fit to page
setting. Thanks. Ken K. - 2191 -- akkrug "Bernard Liengme" wrote: Have you found the "fit to N by N pages" feature in the Print Dialog?
