Dear SNM,

I have finally printed my workout card; however, the font is too small, how do i make it bigger? The target weight, is that the weight we should be using based on our 1 rep calculation? Sorry if these questions have already been asked and answered.

I agree about the print on the workout card, it's too small. Last week my cards printed off just fine, but this week the font is just too small.

Barbara, I saw that post too, and I got it to work in Excel. It's just that I don't like to do double the work if it can be done right the first time. I was really hoping to be able to just print it off and not have to work on it. This morning, I just used the small-print version because I didn't have the time to reformat it on my own.

Gayle, its weird I couldn't do it in Excel, it was to complicated for me to do. I just don't know how to use the program. I though it was pretty easy in Words. What I did is was did my workout card in Words for the 3 workout for next week and printed it out. It only took a few minutes. It would be nice If they make the workout card bigger for us in the future because it is too small for me to see with out glasses. BTW Happy Birthday again. And I see you had a wonderful time:).

Thanks Guys for responding. On the workout card, is the target weight the weight we should be using based on the 1rm calculation?
 
"On the workout card, is the target weight the weight we should be using based on the 1rm calculation?"

yes, and it is 60% (at first, later it will be higher) of your 1RM.

I had the same problem. The card needs larger print and grids. It is not much use as it stands right now.

We've recently made some changes to the workout card. Please try again and let us know if the font size is better now.
 
I just reprinted my card for tomorrow (disc 5) and the font is bigger now. I hope it's 'fixed' for everybody!

Thanks, SNM, for all the attention you're paying to us as we 'play' thru STS for the first time!

Gayle I am still getting small fonts. Lucky you that you were able to get the fonts bigger. Now I am running out of ink, LOL. Hopefully SNM will see this.

Still the small fonts for me, also. I guess I'll stick with reformatting them in Excel.
 
hmmmmmmmmmmmm......I wonder why it works for 1, but not everybody else??? I didn't do anything to my printer either. Strange.

I don't think there is much we can do about this. The size of the font on the workout card is mainly controlled by your print driver and to a lesser degree by your browser. We're still looking at options, but nothing we currently know will allow us to override your print driver. The card prints fine on all of our machines and printers, but we do realize that customers using a different print driver may have problems. If possible we will see if we can do something to improve this for everyone.

Thank you for continuing to try.

Here's a thought -- keeping in mind that I only know enough about programming to be really, really dangerous (I used to drive my programming co-worker crazy with "what ifs" but he almost always managed to come up with a solution). I understand that the STS cards are generated on the fly since they are the result of each person's 1RM results. Is it possible to have that generated card automatically convert to a PDF so that the printer doesn't do any scaling? If that's a totally ridiculous idea, just consider the source.

Just wanted to let you know that when I went into Internet Explorer Browser to print out the workout card it was a lot smaller where as in Firefox it printed bigger. HTH:) I always did use Firefox and still think its small.
