Split Long Dataset to New Sheet for Printing in Fewer Pages...

This tool helps you reshape a long, narrow dataset into a more compact layout for printing.
It splits your selected data into multiple vertical sections (like snaking columns, as seen in newsletters), side by side on a new worksheet. This allows more data to fit on a single printed page, saving paper and improving readability.
The original data remains untouched. The reorganized layout is created in a new worksheet.
You can choose:
  • How many columns (sections) to split into
  • How many rows each column should contain before wrapping to the next
  • Whether to insert a page break between sets
  • Whether to copy cell formatting
    This is useful when:
  • Printing long lists such as codes, names, or inventory
  • Fitting more information per page without shrinking text size
  • Reducing page count for exports, handouts, or printouts
    Example:
    Original data in one column:
    A001
    A002
    A003
    A004
    A005
    A006
    After splitting into three columns of two rows each:
    A001 A003 A005
    A002 A004 A006
    Note:
    The data is split top-to-bottom, then left-to-right across columns, similar to how a multi-column newsletter or directory prints.
    Your last used settings are automatically remembered.
