Problems switching from Web Layout View to Normal View
I just typed up a lovely word document in Web view, since I just realized that using the web view I can accurately gauge how long my posts will be. However, when I went to print the document it came out with the lines of text all smashed together and switching back to normal or print views does the same thing. How do you switch between the two without the type completely rolling back on itself? -- Ashlee777 |

Problems switching from Web Layout View to Normal View
Word has lost the connection to the printer. Restarting Windows usually
helps. After you've restarted, you may want to delete any left-over temporary files (for more on that, see http://www.gmayor.com/what_to_do_when_word_crashes.htm). A long-term solution might be to update the printer driver. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Ashlee777" wrote in message ...

I know I've had other issues with my printer, but I believe the issue is within MS word itself. Copying the text from web view into another word document set in normal view smashes the text all the way to the left of the page - paragraphs of text become like five lines with hundreds of characters in a 1 inch spot of the page. Switching back to the normal view in the original document does the same thing. The only way the text can be viewed normally is in the web view, but it cannot be copied or printed in that fashion. Has anyone ever encountered this type of problem and knows how to fix it? -- Ashlee777 |

Problems switching from Web Layout View to Normal View
As I wrote, restarting and deleting temporary files should work. Did you try
that? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Ashlee777" wrote in message ... 'Stefan Blom[_3_ Wrote: ;3438906']Word has lost the connection to the printer. Restarting Windows usually helps.

Problems switching from Web Layout View to Normal View
I'm not quite sure how to delete temporary files (the link you gave me apparently doesn't exist), but this time it worked! Thank you. With Windows SP3, my printer constantly has errors and I've never really looked into updating the printer driver.

I have no difficulty accessing the linked article. You may want to try
again. To update a printer driver, go to the manufacturer's web site. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Ashlee777" wrote in message ...
