Cells with wrapped text look fine on the screen, but when they print
they always indent each line...

xxxxx xxxxx xxx
    xxxx xxxx   xxxx
           xx xxx xxx

I have tried the "General" and the "Left (Indent) w/ 0 indent" and
made sure the font was the "normal" font...nothing works - any help
getting a real left aligned print copy will be greatly appreciated.

What version of Excel? Have you insured that you have the latest print
driver? Is your printer resolution set to high? What does it look like in
Print Preview?

Excel 2004 v. 11.3.7
Hadn't thought about print drivers, but will check that
Print Preview looks fine but the Preview available after selecting
Print shows the indentations...

What about your Print Quality setting (File/Page Setup/Page, Print
Quality dropdown). Some Print Drivers require it to be set to High.

BINGO!  Changing print quality to High "fixed" the problem...thanks
very much.
