I've got a spreadsheet with a 4-row title at the top (not in page header)
with each line a smaller font than the one before (Verdana 12, 11, 10, 8).
The text is left justified. There seems to be a little "padding" around the
leftmost letter, with the "padding" most noticeable in the largest font. The
text does not line up on the left side.

If I remove the text from the page and put it in the header it lines up
properly. However, changing the "fit to" doesn't rescale the size of the
page header.

I'd prefer to use the top rows of the page, rather than the page header. Any
ideas?
 
Hi Cindy,
I put the following in at a 4-row title (separate rows)
both as rows to repeat at top and simply firts 4 rows.

In page print preview and the zoom magnifier, all were 3 pixels
right of the vertical gridline.

Are you perhaps using a Mac or a PostScript printer, I think
they might treat fonts a bit differently, but wouldn't expect a
difference at the beginning more like in kerning certain letter
combinations.

You there is like 1/2 a character difference it could be a space(32)
or non-breaking space(160) at the beginning check with
=CODE(A1)

Try 5 (or so) rows beginning with the capital letter D - sized from 20, down
to 8.
