Page Layout Still Incorrect
Hi,
The page layout issue still plagues me. I have used all the information provided to me such as: http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/shar...matChange.html http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/TextReflow.htm But the document continues to not be the issue, but it seems to be my machine. The document seems to display fine on a laptop of mine, but on my desktop it still gives an issue. I have sent the document around and it seems to be fine on everyone's end but mine. Is there a way to find out whats going on? I have checked every possible setting within Word I could think of (such as the Auto-formatting) but to no avail. I have tried getting the original .dot file used to create the file, but that dint help either. I checked to see if there were page breaks in the document and there were not, and still the problem existed. I then put in page breaks and that dint help either. Any ideas? |

Page Layout Still Incorrect
1) Look at your document with non-printing characters displayed. This is the
only way to get an idea of what is happening with your formatting. 2) Do not use empty paragraphs for spacing. Use Space-Before and Space-After paragraph formatting (applied through styles). 3) Do not use manual page breaks. Use Page-break-before formatting on the paragraph you want to begin your new page. Install the same printer drivers on all machines. This is not easy to do and may not be possible. What is it about this that is causing you problems? Why does it matter? (Someone here may be able to suggest something different you could do, possibly outside of Word, to address your concerns if we knew what they were.) -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
