How to print a selection in Numbers

Using Numbers in Yosemite, I would like to print only a portion of a larger spreadsheet. This is easily accomplished using Excel by printing the selected cells. How is it achieved in Numbers. Thank you, Scott

Actually, I just found this explanation from Jerry that works; however it is a little circuitous:
" but you can duplicate the Excel process with just a couple of extra keystrokes:
Select the Area to be Printed and Command-C to copy your print area to the Clipboard.
Switch to Preview.app or Acrobat Pro and Command-N to create a PDF document containing your selection.
Command-P to Print.
It takes only a matter of seconds and the result is nearly identical to what you would get with Excel. If Preview is already running, you can Command-Tab to it to make the app switch. If it is not running you can launch it from the Dock, or use my favorite way, Spotlight. To launch an app from Spotlight, without taking your fingers off the keys, type Command-Spacebar, pre, and hit Return.
Give it a try and you may forget about this difference between Excel and Numbers."

Does anyone know how to print a selection on macbook air?

is it possible to print only a selection of a page?

Any application can print in color, which is the default, if a color-capable printer is configured and accessible by the Mac. It is no different than printing in B/W.
Just make sure the printer is set up correctly so the Mac knows what it can do and how to drive it. If you want more help in the set up department, you'll have to provide more info as to what printer(s) you have.

How t print out selected values from a Jlist

hi iam trying to get the selected values from a list to print out as a string but iam getting ,Invalid cast from java.lang.Object[] to java.lang.String.is there any way to get the selected values t print ut as a string?? import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class MultipleSelection2 extends JFrame {
private JList colorList, copyList;
private JButton copy;
private String colorNames[] =
{ "Black", "Blue", "Cyan", "Dark Gray", "Gray",
"Green", "Light Gray", "Magenta", "Orange", "Pink",
"Red", "White", "Yellow" };
public MultipleSelection2()
super( "Multiple Selection Lists" );
Container c = getContentPane();
c.setLayout( new FlowLayout() );
colorList = new JList( colorNames );
colorList.setVisibleRowCount( 5 );
colorList.setFixedCellHeight( 15 );
colorList.setSelectionMode(
ListSelectionModel.MULTIPLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION );
c.add( new JScrollPane( colorList ) );
// create copy button
copy = new JButton( "Copy >>>" );
copy.addActionListener(
new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e )
// place selected values in copyList
copyList.setListData(
colorList.getSelectedValues());
String s1 =(String)colorList.getSelectedValues();

Since the JList method 'getSelectedValues' returns an object array you'll need to iterate through the array and cast each object in the array to a string as you access them.
Object[] o = colorList.getSelectedValues();
for(int count=0,end=o.length; count<end; count++) {
String s = (String) o[count];
Hope that helps

How to print a selection of pages from a 3000 page PDF without having to scroll two wheels! Also is there a way to set printer options for just black and white? Seems like there is a lot missing here?

I have been using this for school work as much as possible and have come across a problem. With my lack of knowledge for apple it seems as though I can't navigate myself to a easy answer. The problem hits when I am printing pages off of a large document, and I don't want to print the entire document in color but I have no way "that I can find" for a black and white print option...
----- also a larger issue, when printing I need to select 1 page or even 20 pages... The time it takes to use a scroll wheel and the fact if you try and scroll fast sometimes you click off the screen then you have to start scrolling all over again... It seems like you would beagle to input from say page 1224 to 1236.... Instead I have a scroll a wheel? Just doesn't make sense...?
Can someone please help solve this for me!

Yes, that fixed it, thanks! I had no idea they clashed like that. I ruthlessly purged all other tables of contents, and then used Layout > Table of Contents to create a new one, and it worked.
It made more sense after seeing in this thread that table of contents styles are more like presets or entities than styles.

Hope this fulfills your requirement

How to print/export select iCal entries as a diary?

I keep a boat log on iCal - daily entries all with the same event title eg: Boat Log. How can I export or print a compilation of just those entries, sorted by date?

Hi!
Since one year I use iCal - and I like it. This year (2011) I want to fill in some diary /journal (?) / Agenda (?) - entries for each day, but I don't know how.
My "private" solution by now: I created a calendar called "journal" and type each day in the header of a whole-day-event in telegram-style.
But I think, that Apple has to offer me a better way.
I hope you will understand my question and forgive me my bad english.

How to print selection

Hello! I am new to Mac's and I cant seem to figure out how to print a selection of text vs. printing the entire page, article, etc. Help! I've tried highlighting the desired selection and printing but that doesn't work...any help??

There is a very easy way to do what you want to do.
Highlight the portion of text you want to print.
Go to edit function and select "copy".
Go to your tool bar and select the application "text edit".
Go to edit function and select "paste",
Adjust the font size to a larger size if needed.
Go to file function and select print.
If application "text edit" does not show in your tool bar, go to the "applications" folder and you will find it there.

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,
Naresh.

How to i print only selected cells in a spreadsheet?

How do you print only selected cells in a spreadsheet using Numbers?

The easiest way is to export it to Excel and save that file to a Windows machine. Then, File->Print Selection. Kidding. Sort of. Like all of the Apple "productivity" software, Numbers has about a thousand things no one uses and does not have the simple things one wants.

How can I print address labels from numbers spread sheet

How can I print address labels from numbers spread sheet

CAB,
The 5163 template has the following dimensional specs:
Dimensions & Info
Length: 4.00000"          Height: 2.00000"
Top Margin: 0.50000"          Bottom Margin: 0.50000"
Left Margin: 0.18000"          Right Margin: 0.18000"
Hor. Spacing (gutter): 0.14000"          Vert. Spacing (gutter): 0.00000"
Intended Use: Mailing Labels, Shipping Labels, Address Labels
There's a great vendor site with this data readily available, better than the Avery site in my opinion. But, you can get the same info in the Contacts Print dialog pane.
You can grab a template matching these dimensions from that vendor site, Copy the table after opening the Word Template in Pages and drop the into a blank Numbers Sheet.
I found that Sheet side margins of 0.15" worked better than 0.18. For some reason the table wanted to flow to the next page to the right with 0.18". Turning off the Headers and Footers and setting Top and Bottom Margins to 0.5" worked well. These adjustments are made in the Sheets Inspector.
So, that will put the template you specified into a Numbers document and you can print labels properly aligned from there. Since your problem statement is a bit lacking in detail, that's all I can offer you at this point.

How can I print sheet titles from Numbers?

how can I print sheet titles from Numbers?

Hi Rick,
"Believe it or not, Numbers just doesn't work as well for me as Excel."
I don't find that difficult to believe. If you need the functions supported by Excel and not by Numbers, then Excel is the tool to use. OTOH, your finding of 'more flexible' translates, at least in part to 'more familiar.' All applications, Excel included, force you into certain paths.

How to print selection only

I saw this question on another forum and realized that I have no idea how to print 'selection only'. The only options in the file>print menu are for the pages desired. I see no way to print only the selected portion of a page. There must be a way, but I do not seem to be able to find the answer.
Thanks, Fran

I tried it with 'Grab' but the printout was too large. I then discovered that if you use 'Snag It' you can accomplish the same thing. Press Shift-command-3 for the whole screen or Shift-command-4 for a part of the screen. this creates a PNG image which when opened in 'Preview' can be printed. Rather complicated, but it does work. Thanks for steering me in the right direction.
