Can't print doc at 100%
Can anyone explain why it is so difficult to get an excel
sheet to print at 100%. I have tried everything but can't seem to hit on that one thing that explains why Excel is behaving the way that it is. If I change the page break it changes the scaled size to less than 100% if I try printing 1 page wide by 1 page tall it also does not print full scale. I have tried changing the column widths nothing seems to make sense. |

It actually is not difficult to have it print at 100%, Set print area and go.
Now if you want to manipulate page breaks and have it print at 100% that is most likely an impossible task because as you manipulate the page breaks you are manipulating the zoom/reduction % to enable it to fit the dimensions you are asking it to fit.

I set the print area and it still manipulated the
zoom/reduction. Why? -----Original Message----- It actually is not difficult to have it print at 100%, Set print area and go.

I thought I was going insane at first. Because you're
right when resetting the page break then my document was resized. I can accept that it is simply an impossible task to have it print at 100% and manipulating the page breaks. For a moment there I thought it was something simply beyond my understanding. Thanks. -----Original Message----- It actually is not difficult to have it print at 100%, Set print area and go.
