Quick Excel Tips
Printing
1. Choose a specific range of cells to print by setting the Print Area
2. Fit a worksheet to one-page wide by setting the Print Scaling and leaving the
number of pages tall blank
3. Print a chart object (such as a timeline) across multiple pages by selecting the
cells surrounding the chart rather than the chart object itself.
4. Switch to Page Break Preview via the View menu to change the position of the
page breaks in your worksheet.
5. Have a data table spanning multiple pages? Print the header rows on all pages
by going to Page Layout > Page Setup > Sheet tab > Rows to Repeat at Top
6. Print a square grid in Excel: Ctrl+a, Arial 10pt font, Column width = 1.71, Row
Height = 12.75
7. Excel can do headers and footers just like Word, including auto page numbering
and dates. Go to Page Layout > Page Setup to set them up.
8. If a portion of worksheet is not printing, you may need to redefine the print area
via Page Layout > Print Area.
9. Update the print settings on multiple worksheets at the same time by selecting
multiple tabs (hold down Ctrl as you click on the tabs) and go to Page Layout >
Page Setup.
10.A Print Area is actually a Named Range, so you can create a Dynamic Print Area
using the OFFSET function.
