Page margin changes to default settings not kept after I log off
When I change the default settings for my page margins and my font, the
settings will only change until I log off. When I log back onto the network, the page margins and font are set back to Word's default settings. I'm trying to permanently change my settings to one inch margins all around and Arial 11pt. |

In general, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...alTemplate.htm. There are a couple of things that can prevent customizations from "sticking": If a network login script automatically replaces your Normal.dot template with an "official" one from the server, go complain to the network administrator. Normal.dot is intended to be a personal scratchpad for defaults, but some companies try to lock their employees into the corporate look-and-feel. If this is what's happening, there may not be much you can do about it. If you have Acrobat 7.0, its Word add-in has the nasty property of preventing Normal.dot from being saved. See the last section of http://www.gmayor.com/lose_that_adob...at_toolbar.htm. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
