Printing your email address book – Netscape/Mozilla

Many people would like to print their address books as a backup. However, a better backup is to save your address book periodically on floppy disk.

Netscape Users

1. Click on Communicator from the menus, click on Address Book.
2. Click on the File menu
3. Click on Export
4. Click in the “save in” box and choose Desktop
5. Name the file address
6. Click in the “save as type” box and choose tab delimited
7. Click on Save
8. Close the address book
9. Click on Communicator from the menus, click on Navigator
10. Click on File from the menus
11. Click on “Open Page”
12. Click on the Choose File button
13. Click in the Look In box and choose Desktop
14. Click in the Files of type box and choose All files
15. Double-click on the address file you created in steps 1-8
16. Click on File then Print

If you have a spreadsheet program, open the same file in that program for a better looking print out.

Next week I will discuss printing address books for Outlook express and AOL users.

Print your Word document on one page

If you have a letter or some other document you typed in Microsoft Word 97 or 2000, and you want to print it on a single page then this tip will save you some time and frustration.

Before I discovered this feature, I would adjust the margins, shrink the font and make other formatting changes to make my letters fit on one page. Thankfully, one of the more useful additions to Word 97 and Word 2000 is the ability to shrink a document to one page automatically. Here’s how.

[inline:1]
1. Type and edit your document as normal
2. Click on File, then Print Preview
3. Click on the “shrink to fit” icon
4. Click on the Print icon (see above)

This tip works well as long as you don’t have too much extra text on the second page.
