"Margins outside printable area" error message
Once again you've come through, Jay.
The macro (in the first link you provided) doesn't remove or over-ride any permanent settings--it just allows you to over-ride the warning termporarily, for the current print job. I assiged it an icon right next to my other print icons on my toolbar and its working like a gem. On Apr 11, 6:18*pm, Jay Freedman wrote: Word bases its page layout on what the current printer driver tells it. Almost all printers reserve an unprintable area at the edges, and Word obeys that. Most of the time, if you override the warning and print with zero margins, the printer driver will just ignore any text or image that falls into the unprintable area. Some drivers may take other actions, such as shrinking the whole page to fit or (in extreme cases) causing a blue-screen crash. It seems your driver is one of the more lenient ones. To suppress the message, you need to set up a couple of macros. See Lene Fredborg's answer athttp://help.lockergnome.com/office/Suppress-printable-area-warning-pr... for the code, andhttp://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htmif needed. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP * * * *FAQ:http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
