Legacy KB ID: 4533

Question

Why do I get the error “Page doesn’t fit margin.  Margin error” when exporting a report to Excel in QuickBooks Hosted?

Answer

You may also get an error like: “Margins do not fit page size error”.

You will get this error when Excel cannot adjust the margins for the incoming information from QuickBooks. 

 

Workaround

1.    Export the QuickBooks report to a CSV file:

a.    select to export the report to a comma separated values (.csv) file in the Export Report dialog box, Basic tab;

b.    Name and save the file to your Q-drive, or if the file is not large, to your local PC;

2.    You should be able to generate an Excel file now;

3.    You can delete the CSV file.  To delete this CSV file from Q-drive:

a.    In QuickBooks Hosted, File >Open or Restore a Company File > Open a company file;

b.    In the Files of Type box, select All Files;

c.    Highlight the .csv file, press together Ctrl + X to delete the file;

d.    Click Cancel to close the window.

(Care:  if a company file was open at the time it will be closed and you will be returned to the No Company Open screen)
