Thanks all,

I've managed to do it now.

What would I do without you?

Save (download) to comp.

Insert in word doc.

In word - file, page set up, paper size, landscape.

You can adjust size of inserted file to fill page so you get largest possible text.

May not be the techie way but it works for me!!

I've just tried printing it but all I've got is the blank sheet with the headings. I've tried saving it, but it won't save.

Only good thing, it is actually a blank sheet in landscape!

Thanks Jolly,

I've got the page in landscape now, but the print preview is just showing the Ancestry headed blank sheet.

If I print it, is this all I will get?

Hi LfW

I've tried clicking on file & print & also on the picture of a printer, but either way I don't get the option of properties at all.

Am I being thick?

Hello,

are there any computer whizzes out there?

Every time print out a census page from Ancestry, it prints in portrait, which means the writing is so small I can't read it.

Also, sometimes I just get a blank sheet of paper with Ancestry headings at the top.

What am I doing wrong?
