When I save a word document as a web page it takes the original word document
and sort of deforms it. In the web page version things that I had centered
are no longer centered. My index numbers don't line up and it's really
stretched out. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I want it to look exactly
like it does in the original Word Document.

When I save a word document as a web page it takes the original word
document
and sort of deforms it. In the web page version things that I had centered
are no longer centered. My index numbers don't line up and it's really
stretched out.

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

It inpossible to 1) fix something you cannot see 2) even if available for
viewing, if the Word/Web Page contains all the bloating formattting to
return the web page back into a Word Doc, there is not enough time in a week
for deciphering the incorrect html.

I want it to look exactly like it does in the original Word Document.

Create a PDF and offer the PDF for download.

Otherwise find a software designed for creating web pages. Word was never
intended for this use.

Hi Zoe,

Browser's don't support all of the formatting that
Word does. If you work in Web Page Layout view in
Word then you will get a fairly accurate representation
of what will show in the Web Browser.


Word retains all of the original Word content if you
use File=Save as Webpage (the 'bloat' previously
mentioned) so that someone who has Word will get the
full original document and look when opening it in
Word.

If you use File=Save as Web Page=Filtered, you will
reduce the file size and lose the content that the
browsers usually can't support, so save the original
as a .doc file first so you have a working master.
