How to print a numbers spreadsheet so column numbers show

I'm writing this with zero experience so please be nice   I am trying to print a numbers spreadsheet and I want the Column numbers to show (1,2,3 down the side and A, B,C up top)  How can I do this?  Thanks.

Hi John,
Apple's design philosophy (keep it simple and non-technical on the surface) is pretty well known, so to me it's not that surprising when they extend that philosophy to Numbers: quite a bit of power under the hood but a deceptively simple interface.
My experience shouldn't be an issue here. But since you brought it up, I am a long-time heavy user of spreadsheets, of Excel more than Numbers, but I find Numbers handy as well, and thought I'd point out my perspective, in response to your "are you kidding?" comment.
In Numbers, column letters and row numbers are just a quick click or a tap away, quite handy for my needs, and I like the fact that they recede gracefully into the background when not needed.
If unlike me you still do a lot of printing out to static reports (as opposed to sharing results dynamically online or on, say, a tablet) then you won't be as happy with Numbers as with many other spreadsheets.
But, as I say, you might consider in your menu going to Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback.

  • How to print page numbers in adobe form

    Hi,
    Can anybody tell me how to print page numbers in adobe form.
    Thanks in advance
    Chaitanya

    Hi,
    Yes the field page n of m is used normally for printing page numbers. But it won't display the current page of total pages by itself. You have to set the run time property to n (current page ) and m (Total number of pages). Carefully select the # (current page ) and ## (Total number of pages). Hope this works for you.
    My requirement is to have the user control on current page. For Example:
    Example for a Invoice with 5 PO items (stands on 2 pages) :
    1st  page is the letter : no page number
    2nd page is the 1st page of the 1st copy of the invoice : we should read u201C1 / 2u201D
    3rd page is the 2nd page of the 1st copy of the invoice : we should read u201C2 / 2u201D
    4th page is the 1st page of the 2nd copy of the invoice : we should read u201C1 / 2u201D
    5th page is the 2nd page of the 2nd copy of the invoice : we should read u201C2 / 2u201D
    Presently i cam getting the current page number for page 4th as 3 / 2 and for 5th page 4 / 2. I could able to control the total number of pages from print program. But when i am printing the second copy (4th and 5th pages), I couldn't able to control the current page number. I need to initialize the Current page count (4th page ) as 1.
    I have used the follwing java scripting:
    this.rawValue = wv_pages - xfa.layout.page(this)
    where wv_pages is total no of pages calculated from print program.
    Please help me in this regard with some formcal or java scripting conditions.
    Thank You,
    Regards,

  • How to print line numbers in NWDS for Java?

    Hi everyone,
    does someone know how to print out program code with line numbers from the Netweaver Developer Studio for Java? This is inevitable for code reviews.
    In Eclipse 3.4 this issue is solved. Is there possibly such a patch for NWDS as well?
    Thanks,
    Maria

    Hi Pascal,
    thanks for the quick reply. The setting you mention displays line numbers on the screen alright, but printing out does not work.
    We use: SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio for SAP NetWeaver 7.1 SP06 PAT0000, Build id: 200807051938.
    I guess it just does not work, because it was fixed only for Eclipse 3.4, and the above NWDS version bases on Eclipse 3.3.
    What do you recommend for code inspections - copy/paste into PSPad or do you know a more comfortable practice?
    Greetings

    Here is a modified version of my original script which was posted in :
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12679002
    This time, with a single run, we may define the number of consecutive invoices to create.
    --[SCRIPT openAndNameInvoiceWithAnumber]

    déplacer le fichier créé dans le dossier
    <VolumeDeDémarrage>:Utilisateurs:<votreCompte>:Bibliothèque:Scripts:Applications:Pages:
    Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Pages et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
    aller au menu Scripts , choisir Pages puis choisir openAndNameInvoiceWithAnumber
    crée un nouveau document à partir du modèle personnel prédéfini
    et renomme le document avec un nouveau numéro.
    Il insère également le numéro de facture au début du document.

    Save the script as Script, Application or Application Bundle: openAndNameInvoiceWithAnumber.xxx
    Move the newly created file into the folder:

    Maybe you would have to create the folder Pages and even the folder Applications by yourself.
    go to the Scripts Menu, choose Pages, then choose openAndNameInvoiceWithAnumber
    will create a new document from the defined user template

    It also insert the invoice number at the very beginning of the document.

  • How to print batch numbers on the AR invoice print out

    Hi Gurus;
    Here is my question; I need to be able to print batch numbers on the print out of AR invoices, I used variable 492 in PLD and I am able to see the batch numbers directly linked with the AR invoice, meaning that I wont be able to see batch numbers that I entered on the Delivery even is the delivery doc was copy to the AR invoice.
    Is there anyway that I can see the batch numbers on the AR invoice print if I entered the batch number on the delivery and then copied that delivery to an invoice??
    My client wants to be able to send their customers and invoice with a batch number but he always follow the process from sales order to delivery and delivery to AR invoice and what this means is that he always entered the batch numbers on the delivery documents.
    Please help me!!!
    Thanks
    Jenny

    If the ad hoc printer mode is not available for the envy, there are some reasonably cheap ways to get a wifi network in your car.   A cheap router from best but will generate the wifi network.  Does not matter if you have Internet or not.  A ifi device will also work, and most/ all of them run on batteries.  Lastly, if you have a smart phone or I phone that generates a wifi hotspot, that may be enough to support the printing function.  ( I need to test my I phone later today to see if that works.)

  • How to Print a report with 50 columns. Crystal Reports

    Dear Experts,
    I'm Using Crystal Reports 2008. I have a requirement that 50 columns should be placed in a  Single Report with single line . But Page size should be A4 ( While Printing).
    With Page Size A4 I'm able to place 5 columns.
    Is there any possibility to acheave this no matter if number of opages increases
    I Appreciate for the help in this regard.
    But I need to display all the 50 fields (columns) in a single report.
    I Achieved this by changing horizontal width to 70.
    I can Place all the fields in one line.
    But my concern is to print this report in A4 Paper I think its horizontal width will be 11.  from crystal reports itself
    I don't want to use cross tabs nor even use sql expression. Its just a simple display report for all the employees.
    is there any simple way out to Achieve this by paging... or any other method.
    Any help regarding this issue will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi:
       I'm not a expert in crystal report, but I would like help you,  i don't understand if must to show 50 diferrents fields in your report  or same field through 50 columns ?  for exemple:
    first case: You ned diferents fields
    F1                F2                 F3                 ... F50
    item1  F1      Item1 F2         Item1 F3       Item F50
    item2  F1      Ite21 F2         Item2 F3       Item F50
    In this case you must put the 50 fields in the report, just enough small to fit page
    second case: You nedd the same field in 50 columns
    Colum 1      Colum2      Column 50
    item 0          item 11      item 490

  • Texy edit - how to print page numbers only

    I wish the page numbers in TextEdit to be printed on my documents; in TextEdit preferences, when I select the option to number pages when printing, it also prints the date and document title. How can I have it only print the page numbers?

    It doesn't seem like you can just have the page numbers printed with TextEdit. When the help text appears in the preferences for printing the number of pages, it indicates it will also print the date and the title, so it is doing what it is designed to do, despite the misleading label for that item. Maybe another application (AppleWorks, BBEdit, Word?) can print just the page number.

  • TextEdit: how to print page numbers w/o Header

    I see the option to check "print footer and header" in the print dialog box. Anyone know how to just be able to print the page numbers in TextEdit (without the Headers on each page)?
    Thanks in advance for any help with this!

    TextEdit is a relatively simple program, with limited options. As such, I doubt the "print headers and footers" options are easily customizable. Other word processors have the ability to manage headers and footers separately. If you've got Pages, or Word, or the free alternatives such as OpenOffice/NeoOffice then you can set up your documents to print just header or footer info with only page numbers.

  • How to print page numbers on a PDF

    I have a large PDF (50+ pages) that I need to print out. The PDF does not have page numbers on it, so I am wanting to know if there is a way to have Preview or Acrobat add page numbers to each page for printing?

    in Acrobat, from the Document menu, drag to 'Add Headers & Footers'...
    in the dialog box that pops up you can add page numbers or other info to either a header (top of page) or a footer (bottom of page)...

  • How to print page numbers like 'Page 2 of 10' on an ALV report

    Hi,
    I've seen a few threads regarding this, but haven't seen any code that actually works. 
    What I'd like to do is print page x of y (i.e. Page 2 of 10) on an ALV report once the report is printed.
    Is this actually possible?  If so, what are the steps and coding required? 
    I greatly appreciate your help experts!
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    I think there is no better way than calculate it before doing the output. If you do not have extra-new-page, the total number of pages may be calculated as the number of lines displayed divided by lines on one page - this will depend on the lines used for top-of-page and end-of-page. Also filters and subtotals could not be used.
    An other approach could be to read the current page number in end-of-list event and then scan the whole list using READ LIST and MODIFY LIST in each page top accordingly.
    Because it is decades ago I printed a list last time I will never have the chance to try.
    Regards,
    Clemens

  • How do you print the numbers next to the first column

    In Numbers I can't figure out how to print the numbers next to the first column to the left. Say I have 350 people on a list and I want to print the sheet with the numbers next to the people's name, how do I do that. Excel automatically does it. However, I cannot find the option to print and include the numbers from the standard Numbers worksheet. Thanks for your assistance.

    In excel it is actually in the page setup dialog. under the "sheet" tab. Numbers doesn't have one table per page (excel is basically one large table of cells). So printing header and column labels doesn't really work in numbers, because those labels don't show up until you click inside the tables. If you notice when you do that they abstruct the view of everything else that might be near the edge of the table.
    The other posters response is the best way to do it. you can get column Numbers (but not letters) by using the column command in an extra row at top also. Thre is a way if you really want column letters, but it ain't pretty. Let us know if you want that too.

  • How do I get the layout guides (A,B,C column headers and 1,2,3 Row Headers) to print with my spreadsheet?

    How do I get the Layout Guides (A,B,C column headers and 1,2,3 Row Headers) to print on my spreadsheet? They are invaluable for discussing the data with my clients over the phone.
    They appear while I am editing, but don't print with the spreadsheet. I know how to do it in Excel, but I am transitioning to Numbers. I can't imagine I have to type them into their own columns and rows. It must be a difference in vernacular that I can't find the solution in the User Guide. Can anyone help?

    Hi ktjobauer,
    Numbers is not Excel and Excel is not Numbers. Numbers is WYSIWYG (at least in File > Print and the actual printout).
    I can't imagine I have to type them into their own columns and rows.
    No, you don't. You can use the charm of Numbers to create cell references for your Excel clients.
    In this Numbers Table, I have added some extra Columns that you can hide later.
    Column B =COLUMN(A2)
    Column C =HLOOKUP(B2,'Table 1-1' :: $1:$2,2,FALSE)      [explanation later]
    Column D =ROW(B2)
    Column E =C2&D2
    Add those formulas to the first Body Row (below the Header Row) and Fill Down.
    Column C refers to another Table which you need only create once, to convert a Column number to a letter:
    and so on from 1-26, A-Z.
    You can move the second Table to another Sheet to hide it. Formulas will automatically adjust to keep the links between Sheets.
    Now in the first Table, select and Hide Columns B,C,D. Formulas will continue to work with hidden cells:
    Regards,
    Ian.
