Previewing a Document

Before printing, you should verify that the page looks the way you want. You save time, money, and paper by avoiding duplicate printing. Print Preview shows you the exact placement of your data on each printed page. You can view all or part of your document as it will appear when you print it. Print Preview shows you the pages based on the properties of the selected printer. For example, if the selected printer is setup to print color, Print Preview displays in color. The Print screen on the File tab makes it easy to zoom in and out to view a document more comfortably, switch between pages, preview page breaks, set print options, and print all from the same place.
