The printed out document shows a sentence that is double printed
On the screen, before printing out, the sentence is typed as it should be,
but after printing out the document, the same sentence is double printed or overprinted on the same line. How do I correct this so that it will print out correctly. |

How do I correct this so that it will print out correctly. It's possible that the second copy of the sentence is in a text box, and that your options are set to print but not display it on screen. Go to Tools Options. On the View tab of the dialog, check the Drawings option. (Note that there is also a Drawing Objects option on the Print tab of the dialog.) Now look at the document (in Print Layout view). If the second copy of the text is visible now, select it and delete it. If that doesn't display it, it's unlikely but possible that the extra text is marked Hidden -- although that doesn't explain how it could be positioned to overprint the regular text. Still, there are separate settings for Hidden text in the View and Print tabs of the Options dialog, so that possibility needs to be examined. Finally, you may be able to grab the extra text in the Print Preview if you can see it there. Click the Magnifier button on the toolbar to turn it off, and you can edit the text in the preview. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
