Microsoft Windows Notepad supports Word Wrap. When enabled, the Word Wrap feature wraps text at the right window border and not at the right-margin page setting. When you print from Notepad, the output will be dependent on the left- and right-margin page settings, not the Word Wrap window borders. Text will be aligned between the left and right margin settings, which are set from the Page Setup under the File menu.

To print your Notepad document as it appears on screen between the window borders, press ENTER at the end of each line before it scrolls past the right border.

Another alternative is to use Windows Write.
