Normal View / Print View and Photo Insertions Seen Only In Print V
While writing in Normal View the insertion of any photo NOT "inline" mode
switches the view automatically to Print View. I can work in this view (no choice) and it prints what I see fine. So I'm wondering, why ever use Normal View if it cannot reliably show - what you type, insert and see is what you get? Does Normal View imply words only without graphics? Anyone heard Microsoft's thinking on this? Will I be ok sending out only Print View saved docs? -- These many questions from a new Office 2003 user, RickM |

Normal View / Print View and Photo Insertions Seen Only In Print V
The document is the same regardless of which view it is saved or viewe in.
Normal view is faster, especially with long documents. Print view is closer to what you would see when you print, but displaying this requires more processing and can slow you down. I almost always work in print view but I seldom work with documents that exceed 100 pages. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.

Normal View / Print View and Photo Insertions Seen Only In Pri
Thanks Charles. Seeing what I create is more important than speed. I rarely
have docs greater than 10 pages but with many graphics. Looks like it is 100% print view use for me. -- RickM "Charles Kenyon" wrote: The document is the same regardless of which view it is saved or viewe in.

I, on the other hand, rarely work in Print Layout view, even in short
documents; when I do, I often hide the "white space" (header and footer) so that I can read the text continuously. -- Suzanne S.
