Which view for wysiwyg and embedded objects?
Hi All
As a novice word user I tend to use "page layout" view as it seems to give me the closest version to WYSIWYG when you print.This does not always come true especially if you insert/add an object such as a "check box form field" or "digital ink handwriting" which show up as {EMBEDDED CODE of some sort}which also makes it difficult to format the remainder of your document as you now have a lot of gibberish on the screen.You have to go to print preview to see the true layout."Reading Layout" does not seem to help. How can you see such objects as they will print and still work within Page layout (or other wysiwyg view)? TIA Sam |

Try hitting alt-F9 to toggle from field codes to field results.
