Make Work work properly on flat panels rotated 90deg
There's a bug in Word 2003 when you view a document in Print Layout mode. It
cuts off the bottom of the page prematurely. 1) Test on any 19" flat panel that can be rotated 90 deg. on Windows XP Pro (version 2002 Service Pack 2) at a resolution of 1280 x 1024. (my panel is a Dell 1905FP) 2) In Microsoft Office Word (11.6502.6408) SP1, set the Zoom to 90%. This should enable a user to see an entire page on the screen without scrolling. 3) Then click File, Page Setup, Paper tab 4) Ensure that Paper size is Letter with a Width of 8.5" and Height of 11" 5) Click View, Print Layout 6) Type two pages worth of text of anything. 7) Note that the end of page 1 cuts off at about 9 1/2" rather than the 11" which it should. Note that the page width is represented correctly at 8". At 90" Zoom level on a 19 flat panel, a user should be able to hold a real 8 1/2 by 11" peice of paper up to the screen, and match it almost exactly in size and poportion (true, exact WYSIWYG). But in fact, the representation in Word comes up an inch short at the paper's bottom. This is the bug that needs to be fixed! Please let me know if/when a service patch is released to correct this bug.
