Print from gantt chart view has very small top and bottom margins that crops the content (half the “week” line and half of the bottom-most task). Content is otherwise OK. Using Win11, A4, print all pages.

Can you provide an example of how it looks? And how your print settings look like?

Hi Dmitry, I just use control P and follow the printer settings (expert user). I didn’t go with the PDF export (that’s a messy way).

It clips off the top line (week numbers) and 10% of the next line (ID, name, predecessor labels). It doesn’t matter if it’s one page or a complete project to print. Everything else prints properly. Normal working on the screen is perfect. Printing it borderless makes it worse (erases 90% of line 2).

I have resorted to screen-capturing sections and pasting them into Word.

Regards, John

Please provide something that visually illustrates the issue.

Also, there is a button “Export pages as ZIP” in the print preview dialog which creates a ZIP archive with images. Did you try using it and is the issue reproducible with them?
