Printing
The project I'm working is 25 pages long. At the moment if I want to print out just 1 page thats in the middle of the project, I have to go into the "print preview" option scroll through all the pages until I find the page that I want to print, take a note of the page number, then go to the "print" option and type the page number in.
Is there a quicker way of doing this? Is it possible to have the page number appear on all the pages on screen but not when you print it out. Can you print by typing in ID numbers? Or can you do "set print area" like you can with Excel?
Thanks!

RE: Printing
Hi Claire
Thankyou for your question
The best option is to print by date range. Presumably you know the range of dates you wish to show on the chart. When you go to print, the dialog box gives you the option to select a date range.
This will print the tasks in that date range with the table element of the Gantt in view
Hope this helps regards
Stephen

RE: Printing
Thanks, but unfortunately that won't work as that would print off more than I would need as the dates overlap and the project is not arranged chronologically.
Any other suggestions? I'm sure there must be a shorter way of doing it?

Claire,
Sorry for the delay in responding.
I have asked our Project trainers to re-visit this question to provide an answer.

RE: Printing
Hi Claire
Thanks for your question. As far as I'm aware there is no option to set a print area or to have page numbers displayed while editing. One alternative to clicking through each previewed page one by one is to use the multiple pages button:
file > print preview
to the left of the "page setup" button there is a group of 3 buttons. zoom | single page | multiple pages
-click on the third of the three buttons
-scroll to the page you want to print and click it
-in the lower left corner of the status bar the current page X is displayed (where X is the page number)
-click print from the toolbar and type in the print range page(s) from X to X
hopefully that will speed things up a little.
Do let us know if we can be of any further assistance.
Kind regards,
Andrew

RE: Printing
Thanks for replying. Unfortunately that doesn't make it quicker as when you do the multiple page view you can't see the text so you still can't tell which page to print, but thanks for trying. I'm presuming it's just one of those things which Project doesn't allow for!
Once again thanks for replying!
