Table displayed differently in web and print layouts
Hello,
I have an html document consisting of a simple table. If I copy or insert it into a word document it is rendered slightly differently than I expect. Specifically, if I have a cell with a fixed width (in the html) that contains enough text to just fill the cell I get a cell with a single line of text in the browser/"web layout" in word. I am specifying a particular font and size in the html document. However, in the "print layout", print preview, and actual printed documents (from word or the browser, I get a cell with some text wrapped onto a second line changing the height of the row. An example HTML doc is included at the bottom of this message. Place it into a new word document and switch from web layout to print layout to see the difference. Can someone explain why this happens? Is there a way to ensure that if the text does't wrap in the browser/web layout then it won't wrap in the print layout mode? Thanks a lot. html head style ..s1 {font-family: Arial;font-face: Arial;font-size: 12pt;width:6in} ..s2 {font-family: Arial;font-face: Arial;font-size: 12pt;width:4in} ..s3 {font-family: Arial;font-face: Arial;font-size: 12pt;width:2in} /style /head table class="s1" tr class="s1" td class="s2" This is how much text it takes to make the line wrap in/td td class="s3"some more text/td /tr /table /html |
