centering letter
I write short letters on letter size paper, leaving lots of white space below
my signature. Is there a way to center the letter, so that the white space above the first typed line, usually the date, and usually signature line but not always is equal. |

You can go to File Page Setup Layout and change the vertical alignment box to Centered. I'd advise you not to make this change in the Normal.dot template, as that's used for other types of documents besides just letters. Instead, save a properly formatted letter -- without the address and body -- as a template, and use the File New command to create new letters based on the template. -- 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. |

centering letter
There's usually "a way" to do anything - maybe even more than one. It's just
a matter of whether it's worth the time & trouble:-), but it may be as simple as: Word 2003: File Page Setup - Layout, Vertical Alignment - select Center or maybe Justified Word 2007: Page Layout Tab, click the dialog launcher button for the Page Setup group & do as above. If you want something more "sophisticated" you'll have to create continuous section breaks which IMHO would overly complicate what should be a relatively simple document.
