Thankn you for your suggestion. I'll bring it up with the team and arrange
for the tutors to call us when a problem appears so that we can try this.

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

I work in a college and we have exams due to start next week. The
technical team are unable to help with the problem that has been
reported so i really need your help.
When writing in a footer, on certain computers but only
intermitantly, the writing has been writing all in one spot each
letter on top of the other so that after typing so much it just looks
like a black blob. We've considered margins, etc, all the general
stuff that comes to mind first but we can't think whats causing it.
The exams coming up are in word production and students will lose
marks for not putting a footer in correctly, which is why it is so
important.
Please help
