cram/fit/squeeze

Hello,
I am asking out of idle curiosity. Does this sentence make sense to you: "I can't cram/fit/squeeze so much information on a single sheet of paper." I think I'd be more likely to say "put". Do the verbs make sense? Cram and squeeze are used figuratively, of course.

"cram", "fit" and "squeeze" are all fine. Gene93 Cram and squeeze are used figuratively, of course. I'm not sure I would totally agree with that.

Cramming a lot of info on a sheet of paper sounds a little too violent and surreal to me, that's why I said it. I would usually cram something more tangible, such as: sacks, bags, etc. I wasn't sure whether I could use it with information.
