Hi,

don't know if this is quite the right place, but here goes....

I was copying off some of the articles... I first printed them in landscape mode... but I made an error and didn't flip the pages the right way (i would have had to fip the book to read it!!LOL)... so.. I tried portrait mode.... that seemed to work fairly well... however when I was reading it over... the article entitled "those Norwegian names......." did not fit on my paper...it chopped at least 1-3 words off the right-hand side... is there some way to correct my printing, or am I just gonna have to resign myself to landscape mode? (it's not quite as easy to read as portrait..and also takes quite a bit more paper, plus being much harded to print out correctly.... (so you DON'T have to flip the book to read it)

Jan,

Yes, that's how I printed it off... I just decided it was just plain easier to reprint the whole thing Landscape, which I did...

Am a bit curious as to why that particular article chopped off some of the words on the right-hand side of the paper!???

Oh, well... at any rate, thanks for your time!

What browser are you using? If using IE, there is a place in the print setup you can select to adjust the size to fit the paper.

If all else fails you can highlight the article (click at the beginning of the article, hold the left mouse button down and drag to the bottom) and then click copy. Paste it into a word processing document and print it from there.
