    Oh for pity's sake! Changing the width of columns on webpage grids has been available for at least 15 years! If you stopped using third-world 'developers' and used AMERICANS you would not have this issue. You can delete this response, I don't care, because actually I should be GRATEFUL for microsoft's low level of competence... it makes me top dollar fixing issues for my clients to the tune of 300K a year, net.

    If you hover the cursor over "S..." do you get a popup?

    Hi there Ron - where exactly is this "S..." ?? can you post a screen-shot or 'snip' of it please?

    Thanks, Phil.

    Thanks trip c. I'd kind of gotten to 85% zoom from Outlook_Positive's tip, but broke down and bought a 20" widescreen monitor on "black friday sale" at Office Max for under a hundred bucks. Solved the problem and I don't have to squint at the print size.
