HOW DO I REDUCE THE BOTTOM MARGINS FOR LABELS?
The Bottom margins are too big and put my labels out of whack with the
printing so that gradually the typing is further and further outside the lable margins. How do I fix it? |

HOW DO I REDUCE THE BOTTOM MARGINS FOR LABELS?
Do you have a header or footer (even an empty paragraph) in Normal.dot? If
so, you'll need to set the header and footer margins for your labels to 0". -- Suzanne S.

HOW DO I REDUCE THE BOTTOM MARGINS FOR LABELS?
There is a blank header and footer in normal.dot that was not added or
changed. I tried reducing the header and footer margins in 'page setup' and re-printed the labels - but it still came out the same. It looks as though Word thinks the page is smaller than it is - but I have selected A4 (21 x 29.7)- so it doesnt't make sense. Any other suggestions? "Suzanne S.

HOW DO I REDUCE THE BOTTOM MARGINS FOR LABELS?
Are you using New Document to generate a page of labels before printing? If
so, change the margin setting on that document. Changing them in Page Setup generally will not help unless you make this the default (by clicking the Default... button and answering yes), and that will affect *all* new documents, which you don't want. The problem in Word 2002 and above (at least) is that if you ever *touch* the header or footer in Normal.dot, you are left with an empty paragraph that cannot be removed. You can generate a fresh copy of Normal.dot, which will solve the problem, but you will lose your other customizations, only some of which can be retrieved (see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm). -- Suzanne S.
