Re: [libreoffice-users] OO question - problem printing spreadsheet

Hi :)
Errr, i had a similar(ish) problem with an .XlsX and got around it by
copying the entire sheet's contents into a new sheet.  I then had to
readjust all the column widths (luckily the rows sorted themselves out
automatically).

It's not an elegant solution but it impressed the client that i was;
1.  so fast at making the adjustments
2.  that i was prepared to put so make effort in

Err, the final touch was to rename the sheet's tab to whatever the previous
one had been (just after deleting the old sheet).  Before doing any of the
readjustments i checked the print-preview looked reasonable instead of
still being tiny!

Regards from
Tom :)
