Probably because you should do your own homework.

why do we use print preview modes?
Actually, that's a very good question. Print layout view in Word pretty
accurately shows me how a page will appear once printed, so about the only time I use print preview in Word is to update fields. Before W2007, I used normal view (& back) for that purpose. In Excel 2003 and before I used print preview often, but now with Excel 2007's page layout view, I, again, rarely use print preview. I've wondered why print preview is still a feature (since at least W2002). Either it remains because too many users would squawk if it were removed, or it does something the other views (including the reading view) can't. Does anyone know?

If you display nonprinting marks the difference between Print Layout view
and Print Preview will be apparent. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Pamelia Caswell via OfficeKB.com" u43222@uwe wrote in message news:994f2ae802c68@uwe... Actually, that's a very good question.

They look exactly the same, pilcrows, centered dots for spaces, greyed fields,
and all -- except that there are no green squiggles in the print preview, but they can turned off in print layout.

Which version of Word are you using? Using Windows versions only (Word 97,
2000, 2003, and now 2007), I have certainly never seen nonprinting marks in Print Preview. (Well, one exception might be the shading applied to form fields.) -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Pamelia Caswell via OfficeKB.com" u43222@uwe wrote in message news:99509537c2cbe@uwe...

If you're seeing them in Print Preview, they aren't non-printing.

Especially if you also display text boundaries.

But note, as other messages in the thread show, that nonprinting marks can
be displayed in Print Preview as well, if you first enable the editing mode. That was certainly news to me. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

Maybe it's because no one else needed to ask that question. Do your own
homework. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "aia.abesamis" wrote in message ... i can't find the answer here. |
