Hello:
I've read many, many discussions about the poor calendar printing in Outlook
2007. The only suggestion anyone seems to have is to download the Calendar
Printing Assistant.
I agree that the CPA makes prettier calendars, but isn't function more
important? These are my complaints and it appears I'm not alone:
1) Meetings "drop" down past their duration to allow more text. But it
makes it much harder to tell how long the meeting is to last and gives the
impression you have overlapping meetings when you don't. (outlook)
2) You can't truly customize the templates. (CPA)
**font type, but not font size.
**what time frame during the day 8-5, 9-6, etc.
**you can't break out the weekends as full days.
**show 15-minute increments.
3) DUPLICATED MEETINGS when you are a delgate. (CPA)
4) Missing meetings
5) Give the option to remove the meeting organizers name from meetings.
(Outlook)
The functionality of the new 2007 is great. I'm very impressed with many of
the improvements. And I realize in this day of PDAs/ Blackberries/ etc. many
people don't print calendars so maybe the software engineers at Microsoft
didn't think of these issues. But as an admin, I can tell you that it is
still VERY necessary to be able to print an easy to follow, uncluttered
calendar document.
