How to setup print area in numbers




















This is how you'd print non-rectangular areas. You can use this function to print discontinuous areas also, though they'll print on separate pages. To print multiple tabs at one time, select each tab you wish to print while holding down Ctnl or Shift.

I sure don't want to sound like an excel supporter because I've put myself through a lot of suffering to avoid having to buy it. And I still haven't. But excel is a good spreadsheet, the best there is so far. Printing should be simple. That would be par. Many of these items are possible in Numbers. What's so frustrating is the screwy slider that makes you print the whole sheet and everything on it. I don't want to print everything on a sheet, and I want to easily select paper orientation I think someone mentioned how to do that and I'd bet it would work globally by selecting multiple sheets in the left column.

I too think Nick hit it on the head when he said that you have to compromise sheet layout to fit within Numbers' print paradigm.

That's just ridiculous. The application needs to bend to my will just a bit more than that. Because I've invested a great deal of hope and what to me is not an insignificant amount of money, I'll learn to use Numbers.

But Apple sure missed the boat with this one if they hoped to get excel users to switch. Unless they have a serious personal vendetta against microsoft, pretty much any spreadsheet user in the world will scoff at this first generation attempt and continue using excel.

You can sure make "pretty" spreadsheets with Numbers, but it's awful hard to get any work out of it. I've printed the Numbers manual and maybe I'll learn what I need to know from reading it. Heaven knows I've read enough excel books! Maybe that's what the first version of Numbers needs - someone to figure out how to use it and write a book for the rest of us.

Hey, maybe that can be my retirement fund! Sep 4, PM in response to goranturner In response to goranturner This may seem like it's off on a tangent, but I think there's relevance here to the way Apple is missing a HUGE opportunity to win over the customers of Microsoft Office.

For a long time I thought the reason Apple didn't make a spreadsheet program was to not give MS a reason to close down their business unit and abandon Office for Mac. Well, maybe someday that will happen, but not if Office remains a superior product. All three applications suck less than they did in their first editions, but they are so far behind Entourage it's ridiculous. I could write thousands of words listing dozens of examples, and this thread about Numbers only adds fuel to the fire.

The iPhone is a cool device, but it is severely limited with regard to contacts. Entourage can't export groups and in Address Book you have to spend hours creating groups if you want to have a prayer of finding someone in your phone while driving and not getting into an accident. If you decide to specify more than one person in a company to be alphabetized by the company name, not the individual, you can't tell them apart. Makes you wonder, with months maybe years of testing, didn't anybody hand one to a real live customer to try it out?

Anyway, the point is this: Office for Macintosh is not yet Universal. When they release the next version as Universal Binary for the Intel Macs that are approaching their 2nd anniversary, thousands of devoted Office users will fork up the upgrade money.

You'd think Apple would realize this is a time to capture those people who are basically loyal to Apple anyway. Instead, we get these half-baked programs that are like junior elementary editions of what MS has been strong at for years. Example: in Entourage, you can select text in a message to be quoted in your reply. If you select none, you quote nothing back to the sender. Don't you despise people who just send you a novel instead of a sentence?

In Mail, you can only have one. In Entourage, you can create rules that are truly powerful. In Mail, they are so lame. Note: If your worksheet contains multiple print areas, clearing a print area removes all the print areas on your worksheet. You can always ask an expert in the Excel Tech Community or get support in the Answers community. Print and share. Set or clear a print area on a worksheet. Need more help? Expand your skills.
