Changing margin settings
I have a very long document in Word 2007 with margins set to one-half inch
right and left. I have decided to print this document into a bound form so I need to use the mirrored margin settings set to 1 inch left and one-half inch right. Word will not let met change the margins. The error window comes up. In the past it would go ahead and change the margins then I could adjust as needed. Can anyone help? -- aspen39 |

Changing margin settings
"Settings you chose for the left and right margins, column spacing, or
paragraph indents are too large for the page width in some sections." and a button OK. When I click OK the message goes away and no changes are made. -- aspen39 "Suzanne S.

Changing margin settings
I had really hoped that this silly bug hadn't survived into Word 2007. Go to
Page Layout | Page Setup | Columns | More Columns and click on the preset picture for One (even if 1 column is already selected), then click OK. -- Suzanne S.
