Microsoft Word - Word 2013 Print Layout view missing pages

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?

Change to start a list with 1 or a changes indentation

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"

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,

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?

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

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.

If all you're worried about is running two separate address spaces, it's
about as simple as defining two recipient policies, and using some attribute
in Active Directory, such as the company name, to determine which address is
applied to each recipient.

If your concers are more extensive, what you're discussing can be a very
extensive topic.

ESEUTIL /R might fix your problems, but you may lose a significant amount of
content. I think I would create a public store on another server, replicate
all folders to it, then delete the first public store. You could follow up
with the reverse if you want to put everything back, but I wouldn't be too
quick to do that until I thought I had a good handle on what caused the

You just need to change their display name in Active Directory to change how

Out Of Office not working

Posted: 07 Sep 2006 03:55 PM PDT

Hi,

Thank you for posting here.

According to your description, I understand this issue is: out of office
assistant is not working internal, also you enable OOF in OWA, the same
result. If I'm off base, please feel free to let me know.

First of all, I would like to let you know that that when Out of Office is
enabled, only one reply is sent to each sender in each session, even if you
receive multiple messages from that person. This is reset when you toggle
the Out of Office in the client. In other words, Exchange clears the
internal "sent to" list when you disable the Out of Office that is
currently enabled.

Therefore, I suggest that you enable OOF rules on that problematic user,
test the OOF rules, then disable it, restart Outlook and enable OOF rules
to test again. Will it work now? Also, you can test the problematic user's
OOF rules by sending emails from different users.

For more information about this, please refer to the following Microsoft KB
article:

157961 XCLN: Out of Office Reply Sent Only Once
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=157961
Note: This article also applies to Exchange Server 2003.

In order to get a more concrete idea as to what the exact problem is and
how to resolve it efficiently, I'd like to know the following question:

What the edition of your Exchange Server? Standard or Enterprise?

Did Out of Office Assistant even work before?

Please check whether there is anything antivirus software is scanning your
Exchange server or whether there is any Firewall enabled before your
Exchange server. If so, please remove it completely and test the issue
again.

Note: If there is any anti-virus email installed on client, please also
remove them temporarily.

Reference:

823166 Overview of Exchange Server 2003 and Antivirus Software
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=823166

Based on my research, I suggest you perform the following steps to check
whether the problem still occurs:

Step #1:
---------------------
1. Quit Outlook, in Command Prompt, type "outlook /cleanfreebusy"
2. Disable OOF and then restart Outlook, re-enable OOF.
3. Test the issue again.


Step #2:
----------------
If you are using Enterprise version Exchange server, I suggest you create a
new mailbox store and create a new mail-enabled user, host this new user's
mailbox on the new store. Test the issue again.



Step 3:
-------------
If this issue still occurs, I would like to suggest you stopping the Simple
Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and Microsoft Exchange Routing Engine
services, and then restart them. After that, let's turn off OOF assistance
and turn it on again to test this issue again.

Step 4:
-------------
Another possible cause to this issue is the total program user count equals
the total server license count. For example, if you have five licenses for
Exchange server and you have used all five licenses, Exchange does not send
OOF messages. The following KB article which also applies to Exchange
Server 2003 is addressed this issue. If this is the case, please refer to
the workaround in the following KB to see if the issue can disappear.

811912 XADM: Out-of-Office Message Is Not Sent When All Exchange 2000 Client
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=811912


If the problem still occurs, to get the root cause of the issue, we need to
capture some troubleshooting logs for further research:

------------------
We need to message tracking to monitor whether the OOF has been sent to the
Exchange server. The detailed information about Message Tracking is
documented in the following KB articles:

XADM: How to Enable Message Tracking in Exchange 2000 Server
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/246856
Note: This article is also applied to Exchange 2003.

XADM: Using the Message Tracking Center to Track a Message
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/262162

Note: Please let me know the following information as well:

a. OOF sender's email address
b. The recipient email
c. When the email has been sent.

Please send this mail to com

Hope this helps, if you have any other concerns on this issue, please feel
free to let me know.

Have a nice day!


Best Regards,

Chace Zhang (MSFT)

I have never heard of such a utility. I don't think the BCC information

No, because as I explained yesterday, what you are describing as the desired
schedule is the work pattern of a resource assigned 100% to a 2 hour
duration task, by the very definition of Work and Duration. It is what it
is and wanting something else is doomed to frustration - 2+2 equals 4
whether you like it or not. Remember duration is the amount of (potential
working) time units between when work is first performed on a task and when
it is finished. If work starts on your task at 8am and finishes at 10am,
that's a 2 hour duration task by definition - period, end of story. If your
resource is spending his full time during those 2 hours doing that task and
produces 2 hours of FTE work output in the process, he is assigned 100%,
again by definition. If you set up an 8 hour duration task and assign the
resource to it 25% and watch him work, you're going to see him physically
involved in doing that task from 8am until 5pm.

Viewed another way, if the task is to make 100 widgets and he can make 50 an
hour doing nothing else, 2 hours at 100% means at 10am he has finished all
100, 8 hours at 25% means at 10am he has only finished 25 widgets and will
be working on them off and on until 5pm to do all 100.

How do I measure actual progress % versus planned progress %

Posted: 02 Jun 2005 07:36 PM PDT

Hi Claire,

I am not completely sure, that I do understand your question: When you
plan your tasks, you put in your planned run-rate - that's basically
what determines the lead time of the tasks. So when done properly, the
position of the 'current day marker' shows you the progress, which
SHOULD have been made.

Additionally, you put in the completion factor of your tasks. If the
completion of your task matches the position of the current day marker,
you are on track.

Does this answer your question?

BR,
Dirk

Task Creation Guidelines

Posted: 02 Jun 2005 11:38 AM PDT

Like Jack I like to suggest that the task names always begin with an action
verb. This keeps one focussed on the idea that performance tasks
(non-summary tasks in other words) always represent actions being performed
by resources. "Contract Signed" is not a task, it is an objective, at best
a pseudo-task, and if it marks an important deliverable (as it probably
would in that example) it would be represented in the schedule as a
milestone. But "Meet to negotiate contract - 3 days," "Type contract - 4
hours," "Sign contract at press conference - 15 minutes" are all actually
tasks because they represent observable physical or mental activity carried
out by people. One test - if you delete all the milestone entries and all
the summary task lines, leaving all the "blue-bar" tasks, does *all* the
work required to complete the project still get done? If you've correctly
identified the tasks it will be.

How do I change task duration

Posted: 02 Jun 2005 11:36 AM PDT

Addng to Jan - durations of activities are freely editable but although it
sallows you to change task start and end dates, you should not do so except
in certain specific circumstances. You don't tell Project when you're going
to do the tasks, you tell it what you need to do and how long it will take
to do each one of them and it tells you whan you CAN do your tasks. You
don't figure out the schedule, it does. Over-riding its calculations by
supplying the dates of tasks almost always leads to serious problems.
Remember, it is a schedule CREATION tool, not merely a schedule
DOCUMENTATION tool. It's a calculator, not a just pretty but expensive
Gantt-chart drawing tool.

Level by priority

Posted: 02 Jun 2005 09:02 AM PDT

Hi,

In my experience when the difference in Prioriyty is large enough the high
proirity ones come first.
From my observation Project does not sort first by priority, then by...
etcetera but it makes a weighted sum of the different parameters.

This being said, your long tasks don't have an actual starting date have
they?
And is "Leveling can split" ON? If not, a low priority tasks that starts
because it is the only possible job for a resource some day will go to the
end even when hi priority tasks come up.

Hope this helps,

level ressources with different units

Posted: 02 Jun 2005 05:05 AM PDT

Doing it the way you ask is assigning the resource 100% to a 2 hour duration
task, not 25% to an 8 hour duration task. The resource units percentage
doesn't refer to the percentage of their day that is spent on the task as is
often believed. Instead it is the rate at which the TIME they're are
spending is converted into useful WORK output, 100% meaning that all the of
the time they spend is reflected in the work they get done. If I work an 8
hour day and devote my full attention to a task that takes me 1 hour, 8
until 9, to complete, doing nothing else at the same time, I'm doing 1
man-hour's worth of work on that task. 1 hour of work done during 1 hour of
duration = 100% assignment, even though it's only a small portion of my
workday that I'm spending on that particular task. I'm at 12.5% if I take
all day to accomplish what I could have done in 1 hour if I'd worked on it
full-speed.

John is correct, this is a "hidden feature" of P2K. It has apparently been
corrected and Project 2003 will export the summary along with the header row
if the "export header" box is checked on the export map.

Bingo! That's exactly right. Tasks 4 through 7 did have external successor

deleted the external links there , the mystery tasks disappeared, and the

It also depends on what changes you want to make. Many changes are possible
using the provided tools w/o any needed programming. For instance, you can add
fields to the tables and modify the forms w/o any programming. You also have
acces to the Workflow w/o using the SDK.

If, however, you need to go beyond this, the SDK is a good start, as is
searching the archives of this group.

Best way to massive assign picklist value for all Accounts

Posted: 07 Jan 2005 12:29 PM PST

If it's a simple data field like this, then you are usually safe doing a direct
database update. So, you could issue a command like:

update accountbase
set customertypecode = 1 (or whatever value you want).

Hi to all,

i managed to fix this error.
For the benefit of other readers the error was caused by an actived

the "AccountId" Attribute which had MigrationCode = 1. Changed this to 0 and
everything worked fine again.

Inability to design functional reports or workflow processes

It is frustrating. In our case I used Live to start the ball rolling under
the auspices that it would take one month without activity before we could
start realizing any results.
I utilized a case with Microsoft on this issue and the only thing that they
came up with is that 2.0 should take care of this issue.

Domain controllers are a mixture of 2003 and 2000. Our network was 2000. Weve
added a 2003 domain controller to the domain as we are going through an
upgrade. Our current crm is on 2000 and we are trying to move it to a 2003
server.
