I am using Word 2003. The document is very simple: one page of text with a
footer. However, everytime I change the footer margins, the main text margins are also changed. The process that I use to change the footer margins is -- I go to :view/header and footer/ then use the page setup option in the Header and Footer toolbar that pops up to adjust the footer margins. Again, the problem that I encounter doing this is that the margins for the main text are also changed. Any suggestions? Thanks, David |

Instead of changing the margins, change the left and right indents for the
paragraphs in the footer. Set them to negative values if you want a smaller margin in the footer. -- Hope this helps.
