big problem with formatting
We just started (Feb 07) having issues with a document viewing and printing
differently on different machines. We use Office 2003 SP 2, XP SP2 and same patch version for windows update on all machines. Margins and page setup are identical. Tools Options are the same, fonts are the same, printer & printer drivers are the same. We use the same normal.dot template. The documents have Excel spreadsheets linked to them. Some of the documents were even created on the "bad" machine last month. This month all of the documents opened on that machine are formatted differently. Mostly larger. If you close without saving and open on another machine it is fine. If you save it, then the new (bad) formatting is saved. We have tried restoring XP settings, we reinstalled Office, tweaked every setting we can find to compare. please help. |

In your whole post, the only description of the actual problem is 'formatted
differently'. This is not much to go on. "fractallinda" wrote in message ... We just started (Feb 07) having issues with a document viewing and printing differently on different machines.

Most of them have extra lines causing the pagination to change and although the font says it is Arial Narrow 11.5 it prints larger. In just a few docs the type is the same but prints smaller and condensed. |
