outline level 2 promoted to level 1 when printed
I'm working on a document in outline view, and everything is fine until I
switch to print or normal view, then level 2 in the outline is promoted to level 1 and printed as such. Anyone know what's going on and how to correct it? |

In what way is the second level "promoted"? Are you saying that its
indent is different? Note that the indents seen in Outline view reflect the *outline level* (in Format | Paragraph), whereas the indents in an actual printout (or in Print Preview) are determined by the *indent* settings of the paragraph(s). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "hbear" wrote in message ...

Note also that for numbered paragraphs, it will be safer to change the
indent settings in the Numbering dialog box than in the Paragraph dialog box. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ... In what way is the second level "promoted"?

outline level 2 promoted to level 1 when printed
Thank you. That appears to be the answer. And I've learned something new.
With that discovery, however, I've also discovered the extent of the formatting problem. I don't know how or why it happened, but it seems every instance of the six outline levels I'm using has its own indent formatting. (One level 3 has a 1.25 indent, while another 3 has .75", etc...) Given what you've shown me, would it be possible to create a default indent position for each level and apply them to the entire document in one sweep, so that all levels fall into the new and appropriate default positions? Otherwise, I'm facing the line-by-line correction of an extremely long document. Help...? "Stefan Blom" wrote: In what way is the second level "promoted"? Are you saying that its indent is different?

If you properly define your styles, anchored to a properly defined
outline-numbered list, everything should work as desired/designed. See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html -- Suzanne S.

Spent a day figuring all this out, but it works wonderfully now. And it'll
certainly come in handy in the future. Thanks! "Suzanne S.
