Why is the column width not the same when printed in Excel?
Depending on the fonts you use, column widths and row heights may appear differently when you print or view a worksheet in print preview. This behavior occurs when you use proportionally spaced fonts, such as a proportional TrueType font.
Why does Excel keep changing column width?
The autofit feature will resize the column to the width of the widest cell (the cell with the most contents) in each column. This can be annoying! Especially when the worksheet contains data in other cells outside the pivot table or any shapes (charts, slicers, shapes, etc.).
