    Urgent: Info needed

    Does anyone know of a source for NAC entry forms? I cannot make the stupid PDF version on the USFA website work, in spite of following the 'special' instructions therein. And apparently they no longer send out paper versions in newsletters. "No computer access, you're SOL" seems to be the message...

    The deadline for Pittsburgh is November 10th. Help!

    Thanks, Brad, but no joy. I cannot open a PDF in any way, shape or form ( no pun inte---oh, who am I kidding, of COURSE it was intended! ).

    I have tried the 'cached snapshot' and the 'view as HTML' also. Both either scramble the information or result in pages so wide thatsome of the form won't print on a standard 8.5X11 piece of paper...

    Contact USFA and maybe they can email or fax you copies.

    That's my last resort, but 11 days is cutting it pretty short for mail both ways...

    I actually had to do it quite awhile back when my computer was sick so I called and if I remember right I had the forms within a day. Make sure you mention you need it for Pittsburgh entry. This also points out, again, some of the website isuues.....

    Is there any chance you could use a friend's computer?

    Er---I just get a "Free Web Hosting" mainpage...

    No, wait---I typed in the address manually and got it. Thanks!

    But...it's still slightly too large. The right hand side of the page is cut off when it prints out. And that part includes some vital sections, like the "NAC Code" box and the sabre registration matrix...

    You could handwrite the document and send that.... :)

    I'd go with the library option.

    Well, if you want to play with it a bit, then you could save it onto your computer, open it in Paint, go to File - Page Setup and set it as Fit To 1 by 3 pages, and see how that prints out. That works perfectly on my computer.

    I don't seem to have a "Fit to page" option in "Page Setup". ( Windows NT )

    *rolls eyes*

    Um...

    Hmm... Is there a scaling percentage? (In Page Setup) What happens when you look at it in Print Preview? Can you mess around with how big it is?

    And what happens when you look at it straight off the web page I gave (using Print Preview)?

    Nope.

    There are size percentages ( 75%, 50%, 150%, etc. as well as "full page" and "page width" ). But all of these result in a page which is larger or smaller, but still has the right-hand 20% or so of the page cut off...

    And what happens when you look at it straight off the web page I gave (using Print Preview)?
    Same thing.

    Yes, I am a computer idiot.
