change the Scale to Paper Size from NO SCALING to LETTER
How to permanently change the Scale to Paper Size from NO SCALING to LETTER
in Microsoft Word v. 11.5604.5606. This is so that every time that I print, the Word document is automatically scaled to LETTER instead of using the default Word setting of NO SCALING. This option is found under by clicking on FILE and then PRINT (or by pressing CTRL P) in the lower right hand corner of the PRINT box under ZOOM. This should be able to be done through a registry setting or changing a setting in Microsoft Word--but how? |

This should be able to be done through a registry setting or changing a setting in Microsoft Word--but how? First note that if you set the page size to Letter in File Page Setup, then you don't need any scaling in the Print dialog. This is very much preferred to changing the print scaling. If you insist, though, the only way to force scaling to Letter is to use a macro like this one: Sub FilePrint() On Error Resume Next SendKeys "%zL{tab}" Dialogs(wdDialogFilePrint).Show End Sub (See http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm if you need to know how to install this.) The specific name FilePrint means that the macro will run instead of the built-in command when you use the File Print menu item or press Ctrl+P. The SendKeys statement behaves as if you pressed the keys Alt+z, L, and Tab when the dialog opens. There is no other way to force this setting through any option, registry entry, or even macro code. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
