    Hi Gary! I spent many years as a MS user, but have been on a Mac for about 5 years now and am still learning to completely utilize all areas of my Mac. Thank you so much for this video. Your step-by-step process helped me print just one small section of my Numbers spreadsheet. Appreciate your time and effort for creating these videos.

    Gary - thanks yet again. This was the video I needed 4 years ago when I moved from Excel to Numbers. I print rarely but when I do I struggle and fiddle until I get some print output that will do. Work flow all over and frustrating...until now.

    Amazing video, Gary! I've been using Excel forever but have recently begun using Numbers exclusively. The printing issues you mention here puzzled me greatly, but you've answered all my questions in one video! You're the best!

    So happy to have found your work and be a subscriber. Thank you. My never-ending issue with NUMBERS is how to center my printed tables when printing. This video caught my eye immediately in hopes of finally answering this question. In EXCEL I used the CENTER- Vertically or Horizontally all the time, printing tables for drug doses etc for posting in my clinic. I will try using the PREVIEW app to see if I can more easily CENTER my tables on the page. I tried grabbing tables (at the little round dot, upper left) in attempts to center the table on the page but this technique never seems to produce the printout that I expect. I guess I could always just us PAGES to create tables and use the ruler guides to print tables vertically or horizontally centered, just so curious why apple hasn’t made this a feature in Numbers. Thank you again.

    Great video Gary! Thanks for explaining what the Numbers Help couldn't explain well or at all. I've been breaking my head to find how I can PRINT the actual column headings (ex. A, B, C, D...) along with the row heading numbers for presentation purposes so people can actually go to the cell I'm referring to during the presentation. How can this be done?

    • @macmost
      @macmost  Год назад

      You can't. But you can put the letter in the header cell for each column (manually, or with CHAR(COLUMN()+64) ) and the number in the header cell for each row (manually or with ROW() ).

I print several sheets at a time within a File, and have to manually re-do everything from "Zoom" to "Print All Sheets" to "Continue Numbering" every time I run a new job.

      The apple Automater might be able to do that. Kind of like recording a macro of all the different steps you take and then recall them when you need to do this process again. Hope this is of any help.

    Hi, thanks for your tutorials. I have a table that I use everyday for statistics. How can I take this sheet and print it out for everyday of the month without having to manually change the date for every day. Is there a way to print the sheet like 30 times but only have the date in the corner to change with every sheet that comes out? Or can I multiply the sheet within the document but the date will increase? Thanks in advance for some good tips on that.

    • @macmost
      @macmost  2 года назад

      Is this a form you fill out? Why not leave the date blank and fill that out too. Then you can get them copied and save your printer.

    Hi Gary! Great video as usual, thanks! It seems that copying from numbers and pasting in preview doesn't work when a filter is applied... also, i have a spreadsheet with 4 tabs and I can't find a way to create a pdf with one selected tab only. It exports as a pdf with all 4 tabs, creating 4 different pdf pages. I then have to open preview and manually delete the unwanted pages. am I doing something wrong? thanks again!

    • @macmost
      @macmost  10 месяцев назад

      By tabs, I assume you mean Sheets, right? Use File, Print and then the PDF button. Printing allows you to select All Sheets or just the one you are viewing. This may also solve your filters problem.

      If those addresses are in your Contacts app, then use that. It has that built in. Otherwise, you'll need to create or find a template in Pages to do it. No quick way.
