Hey Charles –

Adjusting the margins to Narrow (.75” each side) should fit all 8 columns on a single 8.5x11” while allowing the contents to be readable (user experience may vary and all that).
If you also need all 55 rows on a single page, you can then set the row height to 13 for all of them or manually adjust the top & bottom margins to .25” and the row size to 14 or 15.  Depending on the printer, small margins may cause cut off.
Either way, don’t forget to mark “center horizontally / vertically” for aesthetics!

Aside from those settings, I’m afraid I’m not aware of an easy fix, but hopefully it helps. :)

Be well,
Andrew

Hi my esteemed listmates,



I hope you are all doing well.



I’m back at one of our branches to help the public with a variety of
challenges after Hurricane Ian.



It was so rewarding being the communication center collaborating with the
Red Cross and addressing a myriad of community needs. Really, a lot like
what we do at the public library daily! 😊



Our main branch sustained a lot of damage and we don’t know how the county
will proceed in re-building or otherwise. In the meantime, I’m acquainting
myself with different equipment and tech at this other branch.



I have a pressing Excel matter. I created a worksheet with 8 columns across
the top and 55 rows down along both with plain text in them, respectively.



When I print, to get all the columns across the top on one page I have to
adjust the Scaling down to 50% Landscape (Portrait is even worse). That
prints all the text (date) in each cell so tiny you need a magnifying glass.



How might I make other setting adjustments so I get all 8 columns
(headings) on one page but with readable size of the contents in each cell?



Thank you kindly,



Charles.
