[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

As Mike says, if the problem is too little text, then increase the margins,
increase the font size, and increase the spacing between (some of) the
paragraphs. I usually drop the date lower in this case and add more space
between the date and inside address. Most of my letter templates use
13-point type, which I reduce only as necessary to fit a longer letter on
one page.

Hi again,
This did not help sorry Suzanne I did find the shrink to fit finally but
this is not helping.
You see my letter is very short and I wanted it on a full page.
I know that Word prefect would do that in a flash.
I had heard that we could also do it in Word but this is not working
Any other suggestions ???
Thanks again Pat

Good Morning,
I am having trouble here in trying to make a document fit into one page.
I write a letter and when I print it out it looks awful. It is mostly
on the top of the page and does not look right at all.
Can someone help. ? I thought there was a setting where you can make
your document fit into one page ....or two if it's long enough but that
it would look clean
Thanks
Pat
