How:get header to print correctly on even pages w/ Mirror Margins
Maybe I should be using Gutters? Printing 2-sided for insertion into 3-ring
binders and don't want to punch holes in text, but when I change to Mirror Margins, even paged headers print way off to the left of the paper, and some text is lost. Help! |

Help! it shouldn't matter whether you're using gutters or a large enough inside margin. If your even page header behaves as you describe it, then it might be done using shapes (floating objects, like pictures, and not set to be "inline with text"). Placement of Shapes can be tricky in Word. For a header, if its contents do not have to extend into the normal body text area, you can easily use an inline shape, maybe in conjunction with a borderless table, to place what you want.

How:get header to print correctly on even pages w/ Mirror Marg
THANKS Suzanne and Robert! Robert's info was helpful, and then Suzanne's
brief statement about my table indent inspired me to go back and try ( could not figure out yesterday) how to get the edge of the table moved to the right on my even pages. It worked perfectly, and now I'm golden. Thanks both again very much "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Deirdre's header was created using a table with a negative 0.55" left indent. -- Suzanne S.

yes, thanks Suzanne. But not until after I replied on this thread. I
replied separately/directly to your email. Did you receive? "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Did you not get my email? -- Suzanne S.
