Using Print Preview

Print Preview is a great way to get a quick peek at how your printed pages will look. As when printing directly to paper, you start by clicking the frame you want to print (if the page has multiple frames). If you want to print a portion of the page, select the content that you want to print. Then click the Print button and choose Print Preview. Or press Alt+F+V or choose File → Print Preview from the menu. The page opens in Print Preview.

Across the top of the Print Preview window are several buttons and other controls. As always, you can point to any one of them to see its name. If the page has multiple frames and you want to print only the frame in which you clicked, press Alt+F or choose Only the Selected Frame from the Select Content drop-down menu. If you selected specific content to print first, choose As Selected On Screen to see only that content.

To get a close-up view of how the printed page will look, click the View Full Width button or press Alt+W. If it looks as though you're likely to have problems with text being cut off at the right margin, choose Shrink to Fit from the Choose Print Size drop-down list.

To adjust margins, first click the View Full Page button or press Alt+1. You see little lines and arrows around the corners of the page. Drag those in the directions indicated by the arrows to adjust the margins. Or click the Page Setup button and set the Left, Top, Right, and Bottom margins in inches. Then click OK.

At the bottom left of the Print Preview window, use the arrows to scroll through pages. Depending on how many pages there are, use the Show Multiple Pages button to zoom out and see how multiple pages will look when printed.

When you're happy with the way things look in Print Preview, click the Print button near the upper-left corner. The Print dialog box opens. There you can still choose a page range, Paper/Quality, or other printing features before clicking the Print button to print.
