You cant use the space between the chart and the legend, except by scaling up the chart.
In Page Setup, suppose you start by selecting the correct size paper and orientation, adjust the margins (1cm all round will do), then check at 100% scale.
You should avoid reducing the scale too far until it becomes unreadable. So if it looks like it will print to 1 and a bit pages you can scale it down to 90% or thereabouts, but not much further, to get it onto 1 page.
I often have a similar problem to this (depending on how many pages I print over).
The text is either too small, but the schedule ’fits’ onto the correct amount of pages or the text is the right size, but there is a gap between the project tasks finishing halfway down the page and the legend at the bottom of the page.
I couldn’t find a way to move the legend so it sits directly under the schedule, I could only remove the legend or show the legend on a separate page.
Either way I removed the border first (File > Page Setup > Margins) by selecting the ’None’ radio button for the Borders around option.
If you mean that there is a gap between the last bar and the key section try the following.
select the correct page size
try File page setup and then in the page tab "fit to" 1x1
if this does not give you what you want then you have to play with
in the page tab the adjust to % section, also double click on the timescale on the screen and adjust the size % (as you increase the % section in the page tab the programme can go to more than 1 page sideways) and then you can also adjust the margins. , you could also alter the text size and bar size - it normally is a mixture of all of the above and a lot of patience.

Create Radically Better Construction Schedules with ALICE Technologies
Use the power of AI to create construction schedules that reduce risk while cutting costs and build time. With ALICE, develop the ideal schedule during preconstruction -- or recover projects that are off schedule and over budget.
Just to add, you can adjust scaling % manually, other than multiples of 5.

Or scale up to 2 pages tall.
Hi Rod,

The text is either too small, but the schedule ’fits’ onto the correct amount of pages or the text is the right size, but there is a gap between the project tasks finishing halfway down the page and the legend at the bottom of the page.
