CART - Printing

To display on the screen what the printed pages will look like:

  • From CART - close the census file to get back to the CART main-menu.
  • From the main-menu bar, click "Report"
  • On the drop-down list, click "Print Preview Census Data"
  • Click to select the census file, then click the [OK] button.

On the Print Facility screen the mouse arrow changes to a magnifying glass.
Click the magnifying glass on the white (paper) part of the screen to toggle between close-up and full-screen modes.

There is a page-counter on the lower-left that shows Page 1.
There are triangular pointers to the right and left of the page-counter box.
The "inside" pointers move one page in the direction of the pointer.
The "outside" pointers (triangle with a bar) move to the beginning (left) or the end (right) of the file.

You can print the entire file or only selected pages.

To print just selected pages:

  • Use the pointers to get to the beginning page you want to print.
  • Write down the page-counter number so you will know what page(s) to print.
  • Use the pointers to get to the ending page you want to print.
  • Again - write down the page-count number.
  • When you are ready to print - click "File" on the menu-bar.

To print only some of the pages:

  • On the "Print" dialog-box - click "Pages" to move the black-dot there.
  • In the "From:" box - type the starting page number you want to print.
  • In the "To:" box - type the ending page number you want to print.
  • To print - click the [OK] button.

To close the Print Facility:

  • Click "File" on the menu-bar.
  • Click "Exit" on the drop-down list.

In addition to printing the entire census, you can print a sorted index that lists the Name,  Page#,  Line#,  Dwelling#,  Family#,  Age,  Birth Place,  and Division.

To print the index:

  • Click to select the census file, then click the [OK] button.
  • Click "File" on the menu-bar.
  • Click the [OK] button on the Print-dialog-box.
  • Click "File" on the menu-bar.
