The PM Procedure

Printing

The PM window provides functionality to print the Gantt View, the Table View, or both, provided that a printer has been selected and the correct information has been set in the Printer Setup window. Print Preview can be used to view the information before printing, and the printed output can be saved to a file. All the printing functions are available from the File menu (Figure 5.33).
