If you print from web pages often and use Internet Explorer 7, a feature you should take advantage of is fitting the print output to a single page. This works just as you would expect it to where if the content you are wanting to print is wider than the width of the page, it is proportionally sized to fit in the page width.
Here is how to do it:
- Click the down arrow next to the Printer icon on the toolbar.
- Select Print Preview.
- When the preview appears, select “Shrink To Fit” in the last drop down box at the top.
- Click the Print button to print as shown.
This works great for printing maps, bills, receipts, etc. to either paper or PDF.
