margin setup
ROUTINE: to page setup - margin settings - A4 paper - all margins revised to
0.5" - apply to all future papers - default - notice "will apply to all in future." However, next time Word doc is called up, margins reverts to original setting, e.g. 1.0" right; 1.25" left; 1.0" bottom and top. I must now go through the Page Setup routine everytime I pull Word. |

margin setup
Is Adobe Acrobat 7.0 installed on the computer? If yes, then the
Acrobat 7.0 Create Adobe PDF toolbar add-in for Word prevents Word from automatically saving changes to the normal.dot template (which is where page setup settings are stored). See http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/331259.html for several solutions to the problem. jack 1 wrote: ROUTINE: to page setup - margin settings - A4 paper - all margins revised to 0.5" - apply to all future papers - default - notice "will apply to all in future."

margin setup
When you change the default margins (or anything else) in Page Setup, these
become the defaults for all new documents based on Normal.dot (see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...alTemplate.htm). You can still change them for individual documents as desired. Ordinarily, changing the settings, clicking Default..., and answering yes is all that is required. The extra steps Graham describes are necessary only to ensure that Normal.dot is actually saved if you have an add-in (such as the Acrobat one) that is preventing it from being saved normally. -- Suzanne S.

"jack 1" wrote in message ... Garfield, Many thanks for your info. I can see the "manual" setup - shift - and get to "save all" but will this "margin-page setup" then automatically be my "default" setting in Word in the future? -- and if so. will any future margin changes override the current "save all" - or do they all get stored and I have to choose each time?
