    hi. i was wondering if anyone is using IE7 and when they print it comes out in small fonts. if i use IE6 and print, the print job comes out fine but when printing in IE7, the print job comes out very small.

    does anyone know how to change the print job to come out normal? when using print preview everything looks fine.

    thanks.

    Go to the the "Print Preview" page and under the drop down menu where it says "Shrink to Fit" change the setting to your preferred tast.

    thank you, that worked perfect. is there a way to turn "Shrink to Fit" off? I have very lazy users at work and they tend to complain a lot and at every chance they get.

    thanks again.

    I don't beleive that there is a way to "turn off" the shrinkto fit option. There might be a registry hack that I have yet to discover.

    If I find one, I'll post the fix.
