00:00:09.450 --> 00:00:13.830
Once you've finished creating a report, you
can choose to either print it, or export it

00:00:13.830 --> 00:00:17.360
so it can be viewed outside of Access.

00:00:17.360 --> 00:00:22.410
Make sure that you're in Print Preview…
and here, you have several different options

00:00:22.410 --> 00:00:24.010
for adjusting the report.

00:00:24.010 --> 00:00:29.080
The first thing you should do is click the
Size command… and make sure you have the

00:00:29.080 --> 00:00:32.610
correct paper size selected.

00:00:32.610 --> 00:00:37.900
I'd like to add wider margins so that we can
make notes if we need to… but you can see

00:00:37.900 --> 00:00:41.870
that now some of the data is cut off.

00:00:41.870 --> 00:00:46.730
We can use the Page Navigation arrows at the
bottom to go to the next page… and we can

00:00:46.730 --> 00:00:51.760
see that the missing data is showing up here.

00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:56.230
We can fix this by switching to Landscape
orientation.

00:00:56.230 --> 00:01:01.400
Now all of the fields fit on the same page—and
you could also fix it by going back to Layout

00:01:01.400 --> 00:01:05.740
view and making the fields narrower so they
all fit.

00:01:05.740 --> 00:01:11.320
I'm going to click the Zoom drop-down and
select Fit to Window… so we can see how

00:01:11.320 --> 00:01:13.800
the report looks on the page.

00:01:13.800 --> 00:01:16.539
It looks like we have plenty of room for notes.

00:01:16.539 --> 00:01:22.240
And if we wanted to fine-tune the margins,
then we could just click Page Setup.

00:01:22.240 --> 00:01:26.700
And finally, if you want to save ink, then
you can click Print Data Only to get rid of

00:01:26.700 --> 00:01:28.969
the background colors.

00:01:28.969 --> 00:01:34.299
But I'm going to leave this unchecked because
I like the formatting that we have.

00:01:34.299 --> 00:01:39.049
When you have everything the way you want
it, you can click the Print command… and

00:01:39.049 --> 00:01:44.889
then set your printer settings, and click
OK.

00:01:44.889 --> 00:01:48.899
Sometimes you may prefer to export a report
instead of printing it.

00:01:48.899 --> 00:01:52.929
This is useful if you want to email it to
someone or post it on the web.

00:01:52.929 --> 00:02:01.469
Access lets you save it as an Excel spreadsheet,
text file, PDF or XPS file, or email attachment.

00:02:01.469 --> 00:02:06.319
And you can click More to save it as a Rich
Text or HTML file.

00:02:06.319 --> 00:02:11.340
In this case, I'm going to choose PDF because
that's going to keep the formatting that I've

00:02:11.340 --> 00:02:14.069
applied to my report.

00:02:14.069 --> 00:02:18.709
I'm just going to save this to my Documents
Library… and you can modify your file name

00:02:18.709 --> 00:02:26.689
if you want, and then next to Save as Type,
select PDF.

00:02:26.689 --> 00:02:32.720
Then click Publish… and your report will
be saved to your Documents Library or whichever

00:02:32.720 --> 00:02:34.939
folder you chose.

00:02:34.939 --> 00:02:38.970
Then you can close this window.

00:02:38.970 --> 00:02:44.439
When you're done, you can Close Print Preview…
and it will go back to the last view that

00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:45.050
you were in.
