print layout view versus print preview
My document in "Print Layout View" looks different from "Print Preview" even
though all margin and page settings are the same.... What am I doing wrong? |

Hi Norm-
Can you be a little more specific about what you mean by 'different'? Since they are 2 different viewing modes it stands to reason that there should be differences. Without knowing what you're referring to nobody can venture a guess. It might also be useful to know what version of the program you're working with and whether these 'differences' are something that just started to appear. Thanks for posting back |:) "Norm" wrote: My document in "Print Layout View" looks different from "Print Preview" even though all margin and page settings are the same.... What am I doing wrong? |

They are not necessarily supposed to look the same. Print Preview is what
the printed output should look like when transferred to paper. Print layout is a screen layout view. What aspects are different in your case? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Norm wrote: My document in "Print Layout View" looks different from "Print Preview" even though all margin and page settings are the same....

Hi there,
Using MS Word 2003... The problem occurs when I create documents from SOME of our company templates and doesn't appear to happen when creating a document from scratch. Checking that the printer set ups etc doesn't seem to make a difference. The problem as easily put as possible... When working in "Print Layout" view, some lines of text will appear on Page 2, which when viewed in print preview will appear on page 1. Changing the printer makes no difference either.

Do you have Hidden text (e.g., XE or TC fields) displayed in Print Layout
