Hi all,

Can somebody please do me a favour?

I'm trying to print to pdf a page from a website: http://www.useit.com/alertbox/salaries.html

However, for some reason, I can't get the text to fit horizontally on each page. I have tried altering settings in the paper handling drop down menu but it keeps splitting the text onto the second page. For example, pages 2, 4, 6 and 8 are the right hand side of what should have fit into one page and I end up with an eight page pdf instead of a four page file.

If anybody would be willing to visit that page, print to pdf and tell me what you end up with, I'd appreciate it. Furthermore, if you can manage to make it fit on an A4 page width wise (I don't care how many pages it takes vertically speaking) and share your settings with me I'll give you a green pill.

Thanks in anticipation.

All I want is a simple life

Ah - forget it. Just discovered that Safari has a Page Setup preference and it was skewered in here ... as opposed to in Preview, where I was doing my alterations.

mods - feel free to lock or delete this thread.
