The Meeting List layout looks great when the width is about 4.25 in but when printed on letter size paper there is a large amount of white space. A new feature that would allow 1, 2 or 3 "Columns" of Meetings per "Page". Repeating the current Meeting List format as columns evenly distributed Horizontally. On a given page the meeting list would flow down column 1 to the bottom of the page then to Column 2 to the bottom of the page and then columns 3 to the bottom of the page, and continue the meeting list at column 1 on the next page.

hey @jimmedlen check out the instructions for booklet printing - you should be able to achieve this with enough fiddling with your printer settings

if you're succeed and have any best practices to share please let us know!
