Printing and Print Preview (F3 and PrintPreview)

  Previous topic Next topic JavaScript is required for the print function  

 

This takes you by default to a print preview, which shows you what the current page of data looks like, and from which you can print.

 

print_preview_1

 

Bigger and Smaller

Zoom to 100% (Zoomin) or fit to page (Zoomout), or choose a view in the list. The display here works in exactly the same way as the printing to paper. Any slight differences between what you see and what you get are due to font differences.

 

You can also pull the whole print preview window larger or smaller.

 

Next (Right1) & Last (Left1) Page

Takes you forward or back a page.

 

Portrait (Portrait) or Landscape (Landscap)?

Sets printing to the page shape you want.

 

Header, Footer, Margins

You can type a header & footer to appear on each page. Press Show if you want them included. If you include <date> this will put today's date and <page number> does the numbering. Margins are altered by clicking the numbers -- you will see the effect in the print previews space at the right.

 

Print (Print)

This calls up the standard Windows printer page and by default sets it to print the current page. You can choose other pages in this standard dialogue box if you want.

 

Nothing but numbers

If you see nothing but the line numbers

print_preview_blank

that is because you have pulled the concordance data too wide for the paper.cursor_for_expanding WordSmith prints only any columns of data which are going to fit. Shrink the column or else set the print surface to landscape.
