That is a great piece of information, thank you for that.

Let me ask you this then, if I place this document in outline view for
simplicity of working with the document (16 pages) would I then go to
print
view to print? Another reason I wanted it in outline view was because it
will
only print what is open. The users fine it difficult to to manually type
in
the page number to print.

I hope you get it working to suit you, but I warn you, Outline view is
really designed as a working tool not a production platform. That is, it
is
not ordinarily intended to be printed.

Thank you Suzanne, I give it a shot. It seems like it will work but
I'll
let
you know.

Thank you for all your help!!!

Instead of inserting manual breaks, "guide" Word using "Keep with
next"
and
other controls. See

Thats what I did. So how do I get it so each section prints whole on
one
page?

If you have inserted manual page breaks, then the text may
certainly
break
differently in Outline view.

Hi Suzanne,

Thank you for responding. I did check the checkboxes you referred
to
and
they are all unchecked. However, you did bring to my attention
that
my
table
may be too wide and I believe that's the case. I will work on
minimiazing
it
today.

One more question:

When I print, in print view I have each document on it's own page
but
when
I
pring in outline view it seems to cut some in half like instead
of
Partnerships printing on page two half with print on page two and
the
other
half on page three. How can I fix this or what did I do wrong in
setting
this
up?

Thanks!!!!

I imagine the problem has something to do with the material
being
in a
table. If the table is being allowed to resize automatically, it
may
be
resizing too large. Try this: On the Table tab of Table
Properties,
click
Options and clear the check box for "Automatically resize to fit
contents."
Then experiment with setting an exact width (in percent or
linear
measurement) for the table and see if that helps.

Alternatively, do you perhaps have Outline view set to "Wrap to
window"?
If
so, then I can imagine that printing directly from Outline view
might
be
problematic.

Hello,

I apologize as I have posted this early but may not have be
clear. I
have
a
form that is set up in table format and when in print view,
looks
and
prints
great. When I switch it to Outline view some of the right side
of
the
document is cut off and looks like it as well when printing
like
the
page
is
not wide enough. I have the margins set as low as they can go
AND
I
even
tried to set the page to Landscape and it is still the same.
What
is
it
that
I am doing wrong????? I need to complete this for a manager
because
she
wants
the document to collapse and expand and I can get it to do
that
but
just
not
print right.

Thanks!!
