page height help!!!!!
Recently when I create a new Word document, the page height is 9".
It used to be normal letter size. I went into Page Setup and confirmed that the page size is letter - 8.5 X 11. I made sure that my printer has letter size selected - my default printer. I delete the normal.dot template in case it was corrupted. Word created a new template normal.dot and page height is 9" When I look at the 9" hight doc's page set up, it shows letter with 8.5"X11" as the size. However visibly looking at the document and rulers - it shows 9" as where the page ends. I did not change anything that I am aware of on the computer. This just happened. I have seen posts elsewhere on the net of this happening but no one posted a solution. Please help. Old saved word documents open correctly. Only when createing a new blank doc do I have this prob. Thanks!!!!!! |

In Word, click on Tools | Options | View | check the "White space
between pages" box | OK. sarah via OfficeKB.com wrote: Recently when I create a new Word document, the page height is 9". It used to be normal letter size.

Thank you everyone! I just tried what you each said - totally was the problem.
So glad to find this site. I spent hours trying to fix this - such an easy fix. Thank you again so so so much. Did I say thanks? Seriously though, that was the problem and I am good to go. Have a great night! sarah -- Message posted via http://www.officekb.com |
