Word 2013 Print Layout view missing pages

Posted: 10 May 2014 02:49 PM PDT

The Problem

I have a lengthy document I'm working on for work--around 200k words. It displays fine in Read Mode and in "Draft," but it does not display properly in Print Layout. In Print Layout, while the word count remains accurate, it only shows the first 25 pages of text--after that, it is as if there are no further pages.

Why It Matters

I would like to have it work properly in Print Layout because it is my preferred view, and also the view in which others of my team will be viewing it, and because it is easier to work with comments and track changes in Print Layout than in other views. Also, it makes me worry that there is something fundamentally wrong with the document that will cause problems down the road, particularly when it is imported into a different program later.

Possible Complications

1. The document originated as a 97-2003 document on a different computer from mine.

2. I saved it as an .rtf document and sent it to another member of the team.

3. It returned as an .rtf document, and no longer displayed the full document in Print Layout.

4. There has been extensive use of Track Changes and comments from multiple users in this document. (Though, one user's Track Changes and comments are typically resolved before the next are recorded.)

Things I've Tried

1. Saving it as a 2013 Word document.

2. Copying and pasting the document into a new document.

3. Restarting my computer.

It is important to me that formatting remain intact, so I cannot cut and paste without formatting.

Any help would be much appreciated!

PDF displays different than Word document on Surface 2

Posted: 10 May 2014 12:35 PM PDT

Every time I save a word document as a PDF (either by Save As or Export), the PDF displays differently than the Word document. I'm using Word 2013 on the Surface 2. I've never had this problem before but for some reason the PDF is shifting lines. For example, what should be the last line on the bottom of a page is shifted down in the PDF. This affects the entire document.

I've spoken with Surface and Office support online and over the phone. As well, I've googled fixes all week but can't come up with anything. It's just a word document - no images, no charts, etc. The margins are all set to 1'' except for the left which is 1.5. Any suggestions? Thanks!

UK English word missing from suggestions

Posted: 10 May 2014 12:20 PM PDT

I am editing a story written in American English and am converting it to UK English.

Most of the suggestions from Word's Spell Check are good, but I have just come across one word that doesn't have its UK English equivalent in the list of suggested replacement words. I think this was also missing from the Spell Check in previous versions of Word, but can't be sure.

- colored is coloured in UK English.

Is there a way to add the missing Word somehow so that Word Spell Check will offer it up in the future?

Pictures not visible in document when viewed in Web layout

Posted: 10 May 2014 12:16 PM PDT

I recently upgraded Office from 2010 to 2013. I have a rather complex document that contains text and pictures (inserted as In-Line With Text). These used to be visible in Word 2010, but they aren't in 2013.

I noticed that if I change the view from Web Layout (which is the most suitable view for this particular document) to Print Layout, then the pictures become visible. Changing the position/wrapping of the pictures (which are clickable elements, if all white) doesn't help. Nor does using the "convert to latest document format"option (the document is right now in 2013 docx format)

Any thoughts how I can have pictures visible again, in Web layout? Thanks.

Word Spell Check Box too small

Posted: 10 May 2014 11:16 AM PDT

In word 2010 (I don't know about other versions), when one does a spell check, the text containing a spelling query appears in the top box, headed "Not in Dictionary", and Word's suggestions in the "Suggestions" box below.

The "Not in Dictionary" box is too small, because the word under query is quite often out of sight, at the bottom of the box, and one has to scroll down to see it. Obviously that is not a big issue, but it is annoying, especially as I don't recall this problem ever happening in Word 2000.

Is there any way to either a) make the "Not in Dictionary" bigger, so that it shows all the text under query, or b) restrict the amount of text that appears in the "Not in Dictionary", so that it shows all the text under query.

Thanks in advance for any sugestions

Picture shapes not being copied to clipboard

Posted: 10 May 2014 09:04 AM PDT

I paste a picture into a Word document then I go to Insert | Shapes and insert a callout onto the picture in the document. Then I copy the entire document to the clipboard. When I go to another application and paste the clipboard in, only the picture is included not the shape that I inserted on to the picture. Is there a way to copy include the shape as well as the picture when copying from the clipboard?

Right-aligned tab not aligning right

Posted: 10 May 2014 08:25 AM PDT

I've entered a right aligned tab in a document. But when I enter text after a tab the text appears left aligned. Only after adding a second tab stop the last tab stop is right aligned.

Is this a know bug feature in word?

Squiggly Underlines

Change to start a list with 1 or a changes indentation

Posted: 10 May 2014 07:24 AM PDT

Whenever I change a list to start with 1 or a not only is the list numbering changed but also the left indent of the first item. How I prevent word from tampering with the indentation when I only want to start counting new?

Stop word from adding numbers

Posted: 10 May 2014 06:22 AM PDT

When I pasted text after a numbered item the pasted text is also numbered. This is annoying. More often than not I just want to paste text and not have it numberd.

How do I switch off this silly behaviour?

Quite often unable to use a mouse to select text in Find and Replace dialogue

Posted: 10 May 2014 05:56 AM PDT

It happens quite often, but not always, that I am unable to use a mouse to select text in Find and Repalce dialogue.

The way it works is as follows:

  1. Close Spell Check if open (otherwise Word crashes)
  2. Enter text into the Find field if not detected by Find and Replace
  3. Place cursor at the end of the existing word or words in the Replace field
  4. It is at this point that, sometimes, I am unable to move the cursor to the left to select the text

I can use the shift key and left arrow to select the text, which is what I do when this situation occurs.

Note that sometimes this also happens in the Find field.

I can't think of anything unique about the sequence of steps before this occurs.

Fix table (spans two columns) position in an article

Posted: 10 May 2014 04:38 AM PDT

Hello,

I have this two column format article, and I would like to make a table that spans both columns, and more importantly I want this table to stay fixed at the beginning of the page no matter what text I add before.

Note: I tried using continuous sections, it solves the issue of spanning the two columns but the table moves with text.

Spanish "VERSALITAS"

Posted: 10 May 2014 04:31 AM PDT

Hello All,

I have to write an article using Spanish-style formatting in the footnotes. What is wanted is the author's family or surname in so-called "versalitas", that is to say a larger cap followed by smaller caps (upper case there in the UK). Does anyone know how this is done? Many thanks, John

Result of field function PrintDate no more saved in Word document

Posted: 10 May 2014 03:50 AM PDT

Hello,

in the past I used to the field function

PRINTDATE  \@ "d. MMMM yyyy"

to insert the current Date into my letters to see when the letter was printed. After saving the document, I was able to see at any time when I had last printed the letter.

With Word 2013 it seems that the printdate is no more saved. With that I do no more know when I have last printed the document.

When I re-open the document, the field function returns an initial value.

I see under menu section "Information" a field ~"last printed" which is Initial. Tootlip say "Never".

I tried this with two different Printers (very old HP one and new Canon). For both the same.

My question:

Is there a way to re-activate the function? Or is somewhere else the Information available?

Regards,

Marcel

Why won't my .doc file made in openoffice print from Microsoft Office?

Posted: 10 May 2014 03:28 AM PDT

Hi all,

I'm probably doing something very stupid but hope you can help me nonetheless.  I've made two posters in Apache OpenOffice and saved them as .doc files.  I made them in OpenOffice Draw and copied and special pasted them as bitmaps into OpenOffice Writer, in order to save them as .doc files.  I can print them from OpenOffice, and from Microsoft Word Viewer, but when I try to print them from my work computer using Microsoft Office, the print preview screen appears blank and a blank page prints.  Can anybody help me on this? 

Any help would be great!

Thanks very much,

Reeny

Alignment of tables with the bottom margin

Posted: 10 May 2014 02:28 AM PDT

I have just shifted to Office 365 and I am having a problem with this feature in Word 365:

Table Properties>Around>Positioning...>Table Positioning - Position: Bottom - Relative to: Margin

In previous versions of Word (1997, 2002, 2003, 2007, and 2010) is used the above feature frequently in order to align my tables to the bottom margin of my pages. 

In Word 356, this feature just does not work. The bottom row just detaches itself from the rest of the table and migrates to the following page. This occurs even when the original page has more than sufficient space for the table and, worse, when I insert a page-break underneath the table.

I had started a discussion on this issue in another page because at the time I was shifting from 2010 to 2013 and was using Win 7. I am now using Win 8.1 (64-bit) and Office 365 (64-bit). Initially I used Office 365 32-bit and experienced the same problem. I have now shifted the discussion to the Win 8.1/Office 365 category.

I would be very grateful if anyone indicates a way around this problem.

Regards

Paul

Word 2013 - Page Layout does not match Print Preview

Posted: 10 May 2014 01:01 AM PDT

I have spent dozens and dozens of hours meticulously putting my 117 page document into just the right layout, and it looks perfect in Print Layout view.

But when I go to print it, the Print Preview sticks in extra blank pages and otherwise distorts the carefully crated work that I have spent so much effort on.

How do I get Word to print my document as it shows it in Print Layout view?

This is a real nightmare after all this work to have no WYSIWYG -- a true nightmare, since there seems to be no way that I can control my document in Print Layout view so that I actually get what I want when I print it. I thought the WYSIWYG issue was solved long long ago, But the problem is alive and causing (IMMENSE) trouble in Word 2013,

pen and eraser in word 2010. eraser not turning on. how to process?

Posted: 09 May 2014 09:20 PM PDT

it appears you might know a solution for a problem. I lost word starter-2010 on reset w-8.1. I bought ms-office 2010. I can get the pen working, color and size of line, but i can't get the ERASER to work, in word, (works in onenote, so forth, etc.). (the various  icons are at 'add in ribbon', but they don't match up easily (novice).)  Anyway I have seen instruction videos were people are using (the, a) buy version w-2010, 'SAME' as pen and eraser (was) in ws-2010. this address next, here, is a very short video on just that--use of the pen and ERASER. how do I get instructions to set this up? or buy the program?

unecessary lines in document

Posted: 09 May 2014 08:25 PM PDT

Hi, just a simple question that's bugging me.  I've been using Word 2013 a lot and have never had any problem that I couldn't find an answer for but today I encountered one and I'm sure that it's probably an easy fix but I can't find the answer.  I don't know if i accidentally hit a wrong control key or what but know there are horizontal lines(not underlines) appearing throughout the entire document even after blank spaces.  I've looked for answers and it does seem like a formatting issue but I'm not seeing it.  Could someone please help.  Thanks.

Creating HTML with Word 2007

Posted: 09 May 2014 07:38 PM PDT

If I used Word 2007 to create an HTML document and I had Office 2012 on my computer, when I save the document, would the HTML show that the document was created in Microsoft Word 2007 or Microsoft Word 2012?

word takes long save (ctrl+s) and save as (f12), but not by autosave?

Posted: 09 May 2014 06:02 PM PDT

I am writing a 6500 word thesis which includes a significant number of graphs and charts. The problem im facing is that when I save this document by pressing ctrl + s or  saveas by F12 it takes around one minute to save the changes,  however due to this problem I have set autosave time to one minute, though its strange that when word autosaves this document (after every minute) it just takes a fraction of a second. ...please advice as I need to submit this document in two weeks time

Tables in Microsoft Word 2007

Posted: 09 May 2014 05:58 PM PDT

Word, Bookmarks - Microsoft Office has detected a potential security concern

Posted: 09 May 2014 05:28 PM PDT

I have a large Word document with hundred's of bookmarks. About a month ago, the bookmarks stopped working and anytime someone clicks on a bookmark they get this message "Microsoft Office has detected a potential security concern. Location may be unsafe. Hyperlinks can be harmful to your computer and data. To protect your computer, click only those hyperlinks from trusted sources. Do you want to continue?  I click "yes" and it says "cannot open the specified file".

TOC works fine. I've tried this with an unprotected docs, a protected docs. resetting up a bookmark. It doesn't seem to matter, the message still comes up. If I save the file as a PDF the bookmarks work fine. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Word 2013 Spell Check objects to number abbreviation (eg 13th)

Posted: 09 May 2014 11:25 AM PDT

I have just come across an unusual situation while Editing a story.

Word Spell Check stopped at  the abbreviation after the date (number), and flagged it as an error - "then speak your answer. I and the 13th circle will arrive tomorrow "

I'm not aware of changing anything to tell Word to pick this up. In fact, apart from adding some dictionaries, I haven't made any changes to the standard proofing settings.

In the following example, I typed it in myself and Word accepted it as correct. (Mine is the first 13th... The problem, seems to be the formatting of the "th".

I checked the formatting (see screenshots below), and it is indeed a little unusual and perhaps not surprising that Word picked it up. I would suggest, however, that this formatting can't be all that unusual (story copied from the internet) and that perhaps Word should recognize it for what it was attempting to do.

 

Aside: What do the experts prefer we use, Office 2013 or Office 365?

Correction: I have corrected the title to show number instead of date. Thank you Suzanne for spotting this silly error.
