The bottom line of a box won't print no matter what I do!
I haven't received it yet. Did you "un-munge" my email address?

Can you send me the problem document or is if proprietary? -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] wrote in message ups.com... Despite reading the article very carefully, it seems that word won't print the bottom line. So I want to start from scratch. What should I do to create a doc where there is a box (a rectangle) surrounded the printable area and text inside of it? A step by step instructions, please. Many thanks for your patience and help Ed wrote: Dear Ms. Barnhill I did read the article carefully but sure I will read it again. I just want say that I have tried "From text" but word made a mess of my doc. Worse than that it is that if I open the doc in another pc, the settings are different! Ed Suzanne S. Barnhill wrote: You don't seem to have read the article very carefully. What you seem to be describing is a page border. Very few printers will print the bottom of the page border if you set it "From edge." If your bottom margin is adequate, then you should be able to set it "From text" and it will print.

Unfortunately it doesn't work. The tex moves around, but the blue box around the text won't move a bit. I tried margin setting to zero, and then "fix", but only the text inside the box moved. Print preview still shows me hte botoom line is missing. Thanks Ed Suzanne S. Barnhill wrote: See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...sDontPrint.htm -- Suzanne S.

Hello I am trying to do a simple thing - a box around the text - but Wortd refuses to print the bottom line of the box. What I did was: a) New doc - A4 b) Format - Border and Shading c) Page border, options - 31 pt for all. Then I chose a simple blue box to be inserted in the page. When I choose preview, word shows that the bottom line of the box won't be printed. I tried to change page setup but word refuses to the line. What else can I do? Many thanks Ed |
