Printing

It is always a good idea to [Print Preview] (under the [File] menu) before printing. In the print preview screen you have many options for printing the spreadsheet.

Page Setup Dialogue You can select [Page Setup] under the [File] menu, or click the button But... on the print preview ToolBar. You are then allowed to choose [Print to Fit] which will fit all the data on one page. You can insert page breaks into your spreadsheet ([Edit][Insert Break]) before this if necessary.

You can also insert headers and footers into your spreadsheet. There are a few hidden codes which can allow your headers and footers to be formatted in a certain way:

|
Centre the text

||
Right Align the text

#d
Insert today's date

#p
Insert the page number

#P
Insert the total number of pages

#f
Insert the spreadsheet name

#F
Insert the spreadsheet name and path

So, '|| Page #p of #P' will be right aligned and say 'Page 1 of 4' on the first page of a book of 4 pages. There are more codes - see the help section 'Entering Headers and Footers'.

Printing Non-Contiguous Blocks

The print option allows you to select to print the entire NoteBook, the current page, or a specified block.

If the specified block is non-contiguous, however, the block is not printed as a contiguous block. Instead the separate, contiguous elements which make up the non-contiguous block are separated by hard returns, and are therefore printed sequentially.

Blocks
For example, if the non-contiguous block is A:A3..B9,A:D3..E9,A:G3..G9,

then printing this block will print A:A3..B9, then A:D3..E9 and finally A:G3..G9 underneath:

To print a non-contiguous block as a contiguous block, you must first hide the columns which are not part of the contiguous block. For example, in the non-contiguous block

A:A3..B9,A:D3..E9,A:G3..G9,

you would hide columns C and F.

Then printing the block A:A3..G9 will put all columns adjacent to each other:

Show the hidden cells again by selecting the whole page (click the top left of the NoteBook page) and under Block Properties, set the reveal/Hide tab to Reveal.
