remove template lines from document when sending as email
I just finished my new resume and I would like to send it out as an
attachment. But I can't seem to lose the template guides that surround the text. When I print it out they disappear but when I send it by email it shows up at the recipient with the blinking cursor and surrounded by the templates guide-lines. Is there a way to "lock down" a document that will remove the lines so that the resume looks the way it does when printed out but in email form. |

remove template lines from document when sending as email
If the lines you're referring to are the gridlines at the edges of
table cells (since resumes are typically set up in tables), you can hide them by selecting the table, going into Format Borders & Shading, and setting the border color to white. If you mean the faint gray lines at the page margins, that isn't under your control. If the recipient has the "text boundaries" option turned on in Tools Options View, they'll see the lines regardless of how you saved the document. Just as a general matter, it's usually futile to even think about "locking down" Word documents. Word is an editor -- a program intended for changing text -- and is very poor as a viewer. -- 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.
