This one again! Well, there are various hacks for some printers; other people will tell you about them. But it's an imposition on the reader. It's better to print the table in portrait, by rearranging the rows or columns, shortening headings or using several lines for them, using a condensed typeface or a smaller size, or wholly redesigning the table. And don't forget \oldstyle for numeric tables; it's a real eyesaver. -:- "Not a dwarf hole with piles of dirt, gypsum, and dried snot lying around, nor a narc hole with obscene drawings in the vestibule and a cesspool in the middle of the living-room: it was a boggie hole, and that means all of the above." -- Col.
