None of us can figure out how to actually print a page from the MS support
site. Any page we go to cuts of 30% on the right side, even after selecting
"Print this page" option.

How does anyone actually print out this valuable information??

HI Dave

The basic problem with MS site is that (even though you would have thought
that MS staff would know these things) the cells are sized to default and not
to a percentage. This is fine if the ENTIRE page consists of just One Table
but one the MS site they have lumped together Paragraphs, tables, floating
cells, etc, etc all of which are set to different sizes. I understand that
the MS site is quite large BUT setting the percentage size of a cell and
ensure that all object actuall fit is VERY basic stuff.

On the MS pages what you see is a Table (not the same as an access table)
which is (some times) split into cells other time it has paragraphs.....
These Cell SHOULD equall the total size of the Table but on the MS site (as
they have not specified the percentage) most of the time they simply don't.

The only thing you can do is to set your printer properties to "Page Size" =
A4 and then also ensure that the "Fit To" (if you have it) is set to "Fit to
Form".

If all else fails - select the text you want by dragng accross the MS site
page and then paste this into a work doc and print this. Bit Naff I know but
........

Hope this helps a little.
