I don't know what excel does.

openoffice 1.1.x only has a % scale and a single digit "fit to n pages"
- not exactly obvious how that works.

ooo 2.x beta has more gnumeric like options, but it hides them within a
drop down menu which then changes the widget next to it. But it doesn't
have the "1 wide any tall" feature as we have.

I might do some glade experimenting to see if I can come up with
something. Hopefully I can come up with a nice proposal. Ease of use in
this feature is really cool because it can be hard to get a spreadsheet
to paper exactly how you want it.

Is it just me or is landscape printing broken?

thanks,
wayne
