I believe that sometimes this problem can be overcome by selecting a
different printer in the File Print dialog, and then changing back to the
original one.

I have a document that opens fine but when I try to print it there is only
one VERTICAL line of text. The text is not horizontal as a regular
document
would be just one thin line vertically. my program is Office 2003 Student
/Teacher. I have gone to the HELP menu and all it talks about is ASIAN
vertical. I tried to follow the steps but my format button does not have
an
ASIAN LAYOUT tab. Does anyone know how to get it back to printing
horizontally????????????
