= SUMMARY =

In Microsoft Project version 1.0 for Windows and version 1.1 for the Macintosh, when the printout of the Gantt Chart cuts from one page to another, it does not do it at even major-timescale units; it occurs at the margin. If the title of the major timescale unit is broken across the margin, part of the title will appear on the first page and part of it on the second page. Sometimes there will be a letter or number missing on the second page. This behavior is not consistent, but occurs with a variety of files and printer-driver configurations.

In Microsoft Project versions 3.0 and later, the letter will be clipped at the edge of the page. If a letter is right on the line you will see part of the letter of the first page and the rest on the next page.

For example, let’s say September 1990 is the major unit on the timescale. On Page 1, the letters “Sept” will appear; on Page 2, the letters &quot; mber 1990&quot; or “mber 1990” will appear (note that the first alternative seems to have a space for the missing “e”, while the second alternative doesn’t).
