Excel 2000

Page Orientation and Paper Size

If your spreadsheet is wider than it is tall, change the page orientation or paper size.

The default paper size is 8.5 X 11 inches, or portrait. Changing to landscape orientation prints the longer side of the paper at the top (11 X 8.5 inches), allowing room for extra columns.

To Change Page Orientation:

• Choose File Page Setup from the menu bar.
• Click on the Page tab.
• Choose an Orientation (Portrait or Landscape).

THEN

• Click on the down arrow to the right of the Paper Size list box. A list of available paper size options appears.
• Click on the paper size.
• Click OK.

You can shrink spreadsheet data so it fits on a specified number of pages when you print. Click on the Page tab, click the Fit to: option button and enter the desired number of pages wide and pages tall.

Print Quality is measured in dpi, or dots per inch. High dpi gives you a higher resolution and a better print quality. However, it takes longer to print all those dots!
