3. Set the print area.
   With the grid area still selected, click on File → Print Area → Select Print
   Area.


4. Set the margins.
   Select File → Page Setup → Margins. Set all four margins for the minimum
   margin your printer allows. (On mine, that’s .25.) Now, click Print Preview
   to see if the entire grid will fit on one sheet of paper.

The idea is to make the grid as large as possible without running off the

edges. Make adjustments by deleting rows and/or columns from the center

of the grid. If the grid is too small, add rows or columns, again from the

center, to maintain the row/column size and the grid color. When it looks

right, print out a sample, and then save your worksheet as Isometric Grid.

Note:

One horizontal unit on the paper is approximately equal to two diagonal units. With

a little practice, you and your students will be sketching geometric solids with ease.
