Default Restrict size of printable area...?


Howdy,

I am using Word 2000...

For some of our tasks, we want to restrict the position of
print. Specifically, we want to print on a sheet of 8.5 x
11.0 paper, but want to allow text only in the top 6 inches.

I thought at first that I could just set up a template for a
page that is 8.5 x 6, but that causes errors on my printer
(apparently because that is not the size of paper that is
loaded.)

What is the best way to handle this?

Sincere thanks,

Hello-

FilePage SetupMargins, set your bottom margin accordingly.

Good Luck |:)

Hi again,

I thank you for your suggestion, (and can't quite believe
that I had not thought to do that...)

All the best,
