why doesn't my document print the same for all users?
I am sending a newsletter written with Word 2003 to 53 users. A few of them
will have a problem printing. An example is, earlier today, I sent the document for proofreading and the person printed the file and said that there was large blank space at the bottom of page 2. There was not. I sent her screen prints of pages 1-3 so that she could see what I was seeing. What's causing this, and how can I let users know that I have created the document as correctly as is possible? Tks. |

Is she the only person who can't see that data?

Word formats a document based on the capabilities of the active Printer. As
a result, if a user has a different printer, they may get a very different result, especially if you have used hard page breaks or formatted a paragraph with a page break before it. The only way to be sure that everybody sees the same thing is to convert the document to a .pdf file and then send that to the recipients. -- Hope this helps.
