Comment Bubble placement
Can Comment Bubble be moved to in-line [within 8-1/2 x 11 printing] and not on extra 4" wide edge that shrinks the page when printed? Thanks for your reply & assistance. Jimbo213 |

Comment Bubble placement
You can adjust the width allotted to balloons, but if you choose to
use the balloons display instead of the separate pane display, Word will shrink the page when printing. In Word2007, go to Track Changes Options (arrow under the big Track Changes icon), and near the bottom you can set the balloon width, and whether to use balloons at all.

Comment Bubble placement
Thanks, Peter, for your reply & assistance. You answered clearly and correctly. However through your answer I now know that WORD can't do what I would like it to do. I think WORD should also have the option to display the bubble BELOW the text instead of just riight / left so the zoom-reduce-on-print would not be necessary. Thanks again. Jimbo213 "Peter T.

Comment Bubble placement
Hmm, note that if the comment balloons were displayed (and printed) below
the body text, with Word's logic the height of the document pages would be affected instead, so that probably wouldn't solve anything. You may want to try the following macro to insert the text of each comment in the main body of the document: Sub InsertFootnoteTextInDoc() Dim c As Comment For Each c In ActiveDocument.Comments c.Reference.InsertAfter "[" & c.Range.Text & "]" Next c End Sub For assistance, see http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm. Print the document and then close without saving (unless you want to save the inserted comments of course). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Jimbo213" wrote in message ...

Sorry, I used a confusing name of the macro. But the code is correct (it
does deal with comments): Sub InsertCommentTextInDoc() Dim c As Comment For Each c In ActiveDocument.Comments c.Reference.InsertAfter "[" & c.Range.Text & "]" Next c End Sub -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...
