Default Regular Paragraph text printing vertically in center

Hi, My father has a problem with his Word document. He has typed a memo, but
when he either hits "print preview" or "print", the text of the document is
spelled out vertically (like chinese) in a skinny column in center of page. I
have tried to trouble shoot this for him, but my knowledge is limited. Any
help is much appreciated! Thanks.

Default Regular Paragraph text printing vertically in center

According to contributor Bob Buckland: "It's a bug that somehow seems to
have Word misreading temporary files related to the printer currently in
use. You can usually 'unscramble' the display from File=Print and switch
to the printer properties or to another printer then your normal one, or
close Word and delete all files found on Start=Search and looking for
~$*.*;*.tmp as the name string then restarting Word." See also
