Question

Printing Report - fit report to page wide

  • February 14, 2022

Hello, Hope someone can assist.
The check box next to the Fit report to _ page(s) wide in the Print Report box doesn't stay checked. 
Before printing a report  I have to go in  to Print Reports and check the box.

Tried the Tool Hub fixes but that didn't work. 

Does anyone know how  to get the box to stay checked all the time?

Hoping someone can help. Thank you.

Hi there, @user 10. Let me share some insights about printing reports on QuickBooks Desktop.

 

When emailing reports by batch through the Process Multiple Reports panels, currently, QBDT doesn't have the option to  fit the report to 1 page wide. Only when sending/emailing a single report is this option available, however, you can use it as a workaround.

 

Here's how:

 

1. Go to the Reports menu at the top, then pick Memorized Reports and Memorized Reports Lists.

2. Locate and double-click the report to open.

3. Click the Email option at the top and choose how you want to send it.

    Hello Ethel,

    Thank you for your reply. Appreciate you assistance.
    I do use the memorized feature quite a lot. It works very well for certain reports. 

    Going back to my question, my apologies for not being clear. Let me try again.

    In printing reports from QB: File/Print Report/Settings Tab
    At the very bottom of the Settings tab there is a box you can click. It reads: Fit Report to _page(s) wide
    If that box is clicked that enable reports that are wider than the normal to fit that width of the page. 
    Until a several weeks ago that feature always stayed checked. Now it unchecks automatically. 
    It should not do this. 
    Is there a fix?

    Good morning, @user 10. 

     

    Thanks for reaching back out to the Community and letting us know some more information on this matter. Let's work together to get this resolved. 

     

    I suggest troubleshooting with our PDF and Print problems guide for QuickBooks Desktop that could help in this situation. Here's the article:
