Question IE printable issue

I have a really wide table, and in mozilla I have an option to shrink the page (horizontally) to fit on one page. Is this doable for IE? is there some special magic I can work on IE to make it not cut stuff off.

Thanks,

Hit Ctrl+P > preferences > "layout" tab > select "landscape"

Hit ok and print.

Then you may have a problem. Can what you are trying to print be saved as a pdf? Or, can you use an 8.5" x 14" sheet of paper instead of 8.5" x 11"?

Worst case scenario I can print them in Firefox on my machine, but I'm looking for an IE solution. I made an excel spreadsheet remedy the situation of cutting data off, but the user wants everything on one page.

Like I said, try a 8.5" x 14" sheet, if the table too wide.

Legal paper. She's an ugly girl, but I'll dance with her if I have to.

If the data is too wide to put on one sheet, then there's not much you can do about it.

Have you tried shrinking the print margins?
