Six divisions, each with its departments beside it, ran off the edge of
the sheet. The cause was structural, not cosmetic: every level spread
horizontally, so width multiplied with depth. Six divisions times three
departments is eighteen boxes across a landscape A4 — about two
millimetres each, if they had fitted at all, which they did not. They
overlapped and were clipped at the margin.
Now only one level spreads sideways. The divisions stand in a row and
everything below them hangs lengthwise off a vertical line, so width is
the number of divisions and nothing else. Depth costs height instead,
and on a landscape page height is what there is to spare.
What still overhangs is scaled down as a whole. The sheet in the preview
now carries the print area's exact dimensions rather than growing with
its contents, so the fit is measured against the real page: what you see
is what the printer gets. If a sheet has to shrink below 55% to fit, it
says so and points at A3, instead of quietly producing something nobody
can read.
With names switched on, each department gets its own sheet — a whole
division with every name was never going to be legible on one page — and
long name lists set in two columns so the box grows sideways rather than
pushing the scale down.
