    One website I use quite often extends beyond the right side of my browser. There is a slider bar at the bottom that allows me to move the text over so I can read it all. When I try to print from that site, my printed pages don't include the information that appears outside the right border of my browser. Is there and easy way to resize a web page so all of the text will print?

    I can think of a couple of possibilities -

    1. Print in Landscape format

    2. Increase the resolution of your monitor - not sure if that means all will print or not - worth a try?

    PeteC, thanks for the response. I tried increasing the resolution but it didn't seem to change anything - other than making me look crosseyed at my monitor. However, the suggestion to print in landscape was the answer. It chops the pages sort of suddenly at the bottom but no more often than I need to print from this website your solution works fine. Thanks.

    There may be another solution. Try selecting the text you want to print. That may help.

    Sparky, thanks for the additional input. I tried selecting the text and printing and I also tried resizing the text to "Smallest" in the View drop down menu. It prints more of the text than before but still chops off enough of the right side of the page to cause problems trying to read it. Looks like printing in landscape is the answer for me. Again, thanks.
