    I'm trying to print out a web page and the text and graphic's go off the page on the right hand side? I know about word wrap but haven't figured out yet how to correct this with Internet Explorer. Anyone have the cure?

    Thanks Allot

    Rockit--Click File|Page Setup and change the right and left Margin settings to as small a number as possible. (I believe that is usually 0.25 inches.)

    Hmmm .. Close .. but not quite :(

    Still getting some text cut off.

    When I had Office on this computer I would just copy and paste.

    I tried that with wordpad but no go.

    Thanks Again

    The only solution, IMO is to print in Landscape mode. The web page is badly formatted.

    Rockit--I was wrong about the minimum. Mine are actually set at 0.125 inches. Also, you could try minimizing the right, but not the left Margin and if that does not work then do the reverse. I cannot never keep it straight.
    If none of that works, as a work-around, you could File|Save As the page, then put it into a graphics editor (like MS Paint or Irfanview) and print from there.

    Printing Problem with IE

    Our Church web page allows viewers to read sermons, created as an HTM file. Problem is when trying to print the sermon, using Internet Explorer (IE), only half the page prints. It is as if two columns are being asked to print and only the right column prints. Using Page Setup, changing header print codes has no effect.

    I have changed the HTM page width to agree with an 8-1/2 x 11 standard page
    size. The page prints as expected using Netscape and Mozilla browsers but not using IE; even the graphics print, but not with IE.

    My problem is similar to yours but haven't been able to solve it accept by changing the HTM page size...? Landscape doesn't help either ...
