Notes

  • Microsoft Excel ignores manual page breaks when you use the Fit to option.
  • When you change the values for Fit to, Excel shrinks the printed image or expands it up to 100 percent, as necessary. To see the how much the image will be adjusted for your new values, click OK, and then click Page Setup on the File menu. The Adjust to box on the Page tab shows the percentage that the printed size will be adjusted.
  • Printed data does not exceed the specified number of pages. Excel does not enlarge the data to fill the pages.
