Question About Food Diary/Printable Diary

I'm not sure if this is the appropriate thread, but I have noticed that when I enter all my food and exercise for the day the totals are at the bottom along with my goals. However, when I go to the printable diary the totals are slightly different. Does anyone know why that is?
One other thing while I'm here. Is it possible to print the food diary with the totals at the bottom along with your goals? I like that format better than the printable diary?
Thanks.

The difference in column totals is a known issue that has been pointed out in early 2015, which MFP has not yet fixed.
The algorithm that MFP uses to total the columns in the Food Diary are different than the algorithm MFP uses to total the entire column in the Printable Diary (and the mobile apps). The difference is the result of rounding subtotals per Meal slot in the Web version Food Diary then totaling the rounded values, versus totaling the entire column of numbers in the Printable Diary then rounding.0 -
Thanks for letting me know.0
