Default Bottom Page Border doesn't show

Hi,

Using MS Word 2002 with XP Pro:

I put a page border using the page border feature of Word. However, the
bottom border does not show in print preview and doesn't print. What do I
need to do to show the bottom border? I want of four side of the border to
print.

Thanks,

Mark

Thanks,

I thought 31pt was .5 inches which is the printable area for the printer
I have. 31pt is really equal to .42 inches so of course why the
bottom border isn't printing. Like to know why MS only gave a
maximum of 31pt and not 37pt which would be .51 inches.

I solved the problem by changing my printer paper size from letter to
borderless letter. That did the trick and with that I'm able to print
the bottom page border.

If anyone is interested in Typography conversion goto:

Thank You Suzanne
