Prints out so small
I have windows 7. When I go to print out an email and a receipt from a company I purchase from, it prints so tiny. I finally have had to resort copying it into Word and printing it out. But that gets frustrating.
Any idea why it is so small? It wasn't on Vista

This may help, but what I usually do if it is too small, is instead of going to print, I go to File > Print Preview. From there you can adjust the size it will print and it allows you to see how it will look when you do print it. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Home buit PC and Macbook

I am finding that Windows 7 has quite a few quirks and are set backs from XP, which was the greatest. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Vostro 220 Mini Tower Desktop Details | Dell

It did work atmos by fit to page - but should I still have to do that when I never had to? But thanks, at least I can see this without a magnifying glass. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Vostro 220 Mini Tower Desktop Details | Dell

It's hard to say why you never had to do this before, or why you have to do it now. I'd have to play around a little to figure it out...
