Is there any easy way to make agendas fit a one page printout.

If I have four speakers, Manual, objectives, intro print on the agenda I am looking at a two page print out.
I want everything on one page always, I rather have smaller font than more than one page.

You have to decide what you need on the agenda and turn the other features off.

Since the Evaluators are supposed to read the objectives from the manual why do you need them on the agenda?

You can always copy the printed output from your screen and move it into word and reformat.

Thank you,

So people remember the goals, so guests and toastmaster can read what the speakers are doing in advance.
Too much information is better than too little.

Is smaller font size possible.

Why use this size
When maybe this size you can have more information in one page


You can always copy the printed output from your screen and move it into word and reformat... how?
Also in my club the toastmaster prints the agenda I and I have to make sure they know how.

Thanks .... me I personally do not use IE.
I thought I read even Microsoft is dropping IE, looks like it may work but it is a workaround.

You are missing the point--do not get too focussed on IE... You can adjust page scaling and margins in whatever browser you are using to adjust font size and how much fits on a page.

Jim,

I also like to have a description of the roles on our agendas. I think it's a very important starter for a new member and it guards against long time members complacency in forgetting that the new members need this as well as visitors.

My answer is to change my printer setting....my Canon printer has a check box to allow me 2 sided printing.
On the back page there ends up being some extra white space and you can even use that to make an evaluation note for a speaker after the meeting.

People want more stuff on the agendas but then they want it all to fit on one page. Can't have it both ways.

I really do not want to go below 9pt fonts... too hard to read then.

There is always 8.5 * 14 if you really need everything on one page.

I agree with you Steve for sure but
printing with the 2 sided page setting can give you both.

Thanks for all the work you do on the site. I especially like you home page story explaining authentication and cookie settings.

Thumbs up !!
