Use Cases
| No. | Scenario | Suitable Users | Main Pain Point | How WPS Helps |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Printing wide tables | Sales, finance, and admin users | Too many columns extend beyond page width | Use Fit All Columns on One Page to compress horizontal content |
| 2 | Printing long tables | Teachers and project managers | Too many rows make the output hard to review across pages | Use Fit All Rows on One Page to control vertical page breaks |
| 3 | One-page reporting | Students and office users | The full worksheet needs to appear on one page | Use Fit Sheet on One Page for quick page fitting |
| 4 | Original-size output | Users who need exact print proportion | Automatic scaling is not desired | Use No Scaling to keep the original print proportion |
| 5 | Pre-print checking | All spreadsheet users | The final page layout is uncertain before printing | Switch scaling modes in preview and compare the result |
