EXP Systems Forum: Win 98 + Excel Problem

Message


   I received the following bug report today:
"I have found a small bug.  I chuck out a lot of Excel files and if you leave the Page Set-up on fit to x pages by y pages then PDFredirect does not launch when you print.  If you select adjust to aa% of normal size then all works perfectly."

	I have confirmed that: This is a problem with PDF reDirect only on Win9x/ME machines The problem does NOT occur with Win NT, 2000 & XP The problem does NOT occur with PDF reDirect Pro on any version of Windows Unfortunately, after a great deal of investigation, a fix seems unlikely. There is however a work-around as follows: Step 1. Select "Page Setup" Step 2. Select "Fit X pages wide by Y tall" as intended, and set the values needed. Step 3. Select "Print Preview", then click "Page Setup" to return to the dialog box. Step 4. Select "Adjust to ZZ % (Note: Excel has selected the proper zoom ratio automatically to match the requested setting from Step 2 above) Step 5. Select "Print". The PDF will be created as requested.
