About printing and previewing data on right-to-left worksheets
The tabs within the Page Setup dialog box provide right-to-left characteristics that give you a true representation of your data.
Margins
The page layout sample in the center of the tab reflects the current worksheet direction setting.
The sample worksheet displayed on the Margins tab shows the direction of the first worksheet in the workbook. There might be worksheets with both right-to-left and left-to-right directions in the same workbook.
Worksheet
Worksheets that are too large to print on a single page are printed according to an order established by the direction of the current worksheet. Right-to-left worksheets print down or across, starting in the upper-right corner of the worksheet. The following example shows the page numbering and printing order for a worksheet that is three pages wide and requires six pages to print.
| Worksheet direction | Multiple-page printing order |
|---|---|
| Left-to-right |  |
| Right-to-left |  |
Print Preview
The Print Preview button displays a right-to-left or left-to-right page direction, depending on the direction of the current worksheet.
