How To Shrink your Sales Forecast to Fit on One Page

You need to fit the customer name, 12 months of unit and currency forecasts, and a total on one page.

I know that you already know how to do this, but in case one of your classmates has forgotten, here are some suggestions:

1. Use Landscape, not Portrait

2. Drop the decimals

3. Narrow the column widths

4. Use thousands or millions or '000 or '000,000

5. If necessary, drop the currency symbol from every cell,

and nake sure that the currency is noted in the page title.

6. Decrease some of your font sizes (ie, customer name or titles) 7. Use the "fit" option under Print Preview

8. Reduce the side or top margins

Door Sales to Portugal (in units) 1 unit = 1 door
