Word Layout
I seem to have lost control of the Word layout. If I enlarge the type to
100% or more I get a 2 page layout. If I select "One Page" then the image reverts to one page but with a smaller, less than 100% size that I can barely read. If I increase the size, I once again get a 2 page image! How can I get one page with the page size I desire? |

More recent versions of Word seem to be more bloody-minded about this,
especially on large, high-resolution monitors. Word seems to be convinced that you want to see as many pages as will fit. I've had problems with this in Print Preview even in Word 2003. Sometimes you can find a "sweet spot" that will give you a single image without being unbearably large. It seems especially bizarre that you would get *more* pages at a higher Zoom. What happens if you choose One Page and then use the Zoom slider on the status bar? -- Suzanne S.

"What happens if you choose One Page and then use the Zoom slider on the
status bar?" When one uses the Zoom slider to increase the size, the one page quickly becomes two pages on screen! Very annoying. Any other suggestions to get one readable page on the monitor in Word 2007? I appreciate your help. Don "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

As Suzanne implies, Word 2007 (Word 2003 also) will fit as many pages in the
workspace as dictated by the monitor size, display resolution and the Word window size. On my 19" ViewSonic monitor at a resolution of 1280X1024 and Word at full screen, Word 2003 will display two pages when the zoom is set at 75%. With Word 2007 it is 76%. Zoom settings above those figures show 1 page. In Word 2007, the zoom dislog can be incremented in points and the dialog indicates when the changeover occurs. If you are using a larger screen or a greater resolution or a smaller Word window the point at which the transition occurs will be different and the amount of zoom required to give you a screen display large enough to read will be different also. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Deebee wrote: "What happens if you choose One Page and then use the Zoom slider on the status bar?"

But the irony is that she's getting MORE pages at HIGHER Zoom settings.
