Make "Print Record" WYSIWYG -- no more narrow columns!

Until recently, when I went to Print Record (after finding it under Save, which took a while after the redesign) I got a page which looked like what I saw on my screen. All of the information in one section was in lines long enough to make sense when I looked at the page.

Now I get a record in about 5 columns of really really short lines (sometimes only one word, or less) and reading it is a pain. I can't scan quickly and see what I need.

I have tried copy-pasting into another document, but it doesn't capture all of the information on the screen.

I use my hard copies for notes, sometimes marking up or highlighting the text of what I have printed to indicate next steps or a point which conflicts with other records. I also use them to remind me what I want to work on at a Family Search Center. They are a form of research log for me. I would like to have readable pages again.
