Excel 365 text wrap issues, and page layout view vs print preview view issue
It's not really clear why what you're experiencing--differences between different views--is a problem. Excel is adjusting to the circumstances and different views, print settings. But it isn't "wrong" per se, is it. Just different.
If you have a specific layout in mind, specific words you want on one line, not on the next or prior, let us know. But this looks like a legitimate estimate sheet for a work project as is.
Or am I missing something?

The file will function as is...it's not a problem, more aesthetics I guess. Was just looking for a solution to the issues presented...why the text wrap feature doesn't work properly, and why there isn't a view available that actually matches what will be printed.
Specific layouts?
Item 1 - Have the indicated text fill the column width and wrap.
Item 2 - Have the layout view match the actual printed view/ print.
Item 3 - Have the indicated text fill the column height and wrap.
Just thought i was doing something wrong. If there's no solution, so be it.
Appreciate the input.

No...other than trying to use Word instead. Excel is for for numbers, Word is for words....they should rename Excel to "Number".
