How can I take a full screenshot of the Gantt Chart? – Project Plan – Question Info
We cannot consistently get Project to correctly print our gantt chart. Onscreen our project looks great, but trying all the options we know of still results in incorrect sizing or illegibility of parts of the chart. Where can I go to learn more about printing our work.
It is a combination of how you set it up in the working screen and how you set it up in page setup. In the working screen you have to set the timescale, and don’t overlap columns with the chart if you want them printed. Font sizes and bar styles are set in the view. Each print has to be designed for the audience and for the size sheet of paper it is being printed on. In page setup, the view tab is useful, to turn off “print blank pages” and “print first x columns”.
Set margins to a minimum, say 1 cm. Don’t try to scale 50 sheets onto one sheet. Choose portrait or landscape. Set your pdf writer as default printer, and print preview everything as PDF before sending it to a real printer. In page setup, start with a large format sheet of paper, metric A0, and work down to smaller sheets until it won’t fit. Get a large format printer, because most printouts look terrible just because they are on A4.

Zoom out of the Gantt chart View ribbon, Zoom entire project and then check print preview. Yes, a combination of several factors culled from several answers did the job.

Other ways to share project info. Pick the view you want. Hide subtasks to show only top-level tasks. Sort tasks or dates to highlight specific info. Under Settings , choose how much of the project to print. You can print the whole thing or pick date and page ranges.
You can include headers and footers on each printed page. Some views also include a legend of the types of Gantt bars on each printed page. You can add, remove, or change the headers, footers, and legends like this:.
Select the Header , Footer , or Legend tab. Type your text in the Left , Center , or Right text box. Want to get rid of the legend completely? On the Legend tab, under Located on , select None. Need to change what Gantt bars show up in the legend? See Change the legend on a printed view for instructions.
Create and customize the report until it shows exactly the information you want to print. You can add charts, tables, and links, as well as change colors and add visual effects. For example, choose Page Breaks to see how much of the report will show up on a printed page. Then choose Size to pick a different paper size or rearrange the report elements until they all fit on a page. To specify months, under Print , select Months per page , and then choose 1 or 2.

Selected view is “Gantt Chart”. I want to print the task list without any of the Gantt chart bushwah. I can do a print preview and identify the last page of the list, then select 1-last page, but since that doesn’t affect the total pages value, I really need to prevent the Gantt chart stuff from printing.
