I have an excel worksheet, all cells are same size. Alot of the fields
are just text info with some box formatting. I have 3 rows where I
have text spanning about 12 colums but the text is just entered in the
first cell. On the screen the text goes to the right edge of my box
(or the right edge of my page). But when I do a print preview or print
it, the text actually runs to about 2 columns shy of what the screen
shows. This is the first I have ever seen this. What would cause
this?
 
I think excel does a pretty good job of WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get),
but it's not perfect.

I know on hardcopies that must be really perfect, the best test is to print and
see what it looks like.

Not a really helpful answer, but you're not alone.

ps. you may want to try a different printer (or even a newer/fresher printer
download). Although it may not help at all.
