Printing templates

I am in process of standardising approx 100 templates and would like to ensure that the print area is consistent across all templates, How do I this?

RE: Printing templates

Hi Celia, thanks for your query. This depends a lot on where you are in the process. Ideally, you would create one template with the print area set and then create your 100 other bespoke templates from that, thereby controlling the print area across all the others. If your templates have already been created there is no built in functionality to help you standardise the print areas and you would have to write a macro to loop through all 100 files, set the print area and then save the template. Other than that, it will be a manual process!

Hope this helps,

Anthony


 

Excel tip:

Autofit column width – Excel (all versions)

a. Highlight the column or columns you wish to alter the width of. You do this by clicking on the grey button at the top of the column showing the column letter. Click and drag on these letters to select more than one column.
b. Double click the dividing line between the columns. This dividing line is the break between the columns on the column headers (grey buttons showing the column letter at the top of each column). When you hover your mouse over one of these dividing lines the point will change and show an arrow pulling a line in two directions. When you have this mouse pointer you should double click to get Excel to automatically set the column width to fit the contents of the column (autofit)
