When I try to Print Preview or print (to postscript or pdf) an imported

Now, I am looking closer by zooming in about ten times -- it is
printing. But the whole page spreadsheet is only about the size of one
character!

The excel and outputed pdf files are available here:

Hmm that is odd.  The good news is that it works as expected with
0.70 & cvs.  The bad news is that I don't think anything has changed
since 0.68.  My guess is that it is related to the zoom feature for
printing.  Double check in the print setup that the scale factor is
set to something sane.  If that fails put a break in
    src/print.c:setup_scale
and have a look at what scale factor is being used.

Good Luck,

PS
    I noticed your activity log detailing difficulties installing
    gnumeric on netbsd where you mentioed requiring _76_ new
    packages to install gnumeric.  You can relax that quite a bit
    by ignoring some of the plugins.
        - guile
        - perl
        - python
        - gb
        - gda
    Are all optional.  Gnumeric works and functions jsut fine
    without them. Have a look in the README or the website for
    details.
