| MS Word 2013 Prints page 1, when trying to print Current page (in pull down menu in Word) Posted: 08 Dec 2014 02:15 PM PST OS - Win 7 Enterprise Office - 2013 Corp Environment Have looked at this online, with no good answers or solutions. In Word 2013, when I try to print current page (using pull down selection in Word), Word will print only page 1 of the document. (If I use custom print I can specify the page and it will print, so there is a workaround) Have done the following, with no results * Repaired Office (no change) * Replaced/Changed the dotm file for word (no change) * Recreated my Windows Profile (no change) * Have tried 3 different Network Printers, and 1 local USB Printer, same results on each. * Have verified on 3 different Desktops (including mine) Finally, uninstalled Office (rebooted), reinstalled (rebooted after), and use Word again, with same results. Does anyone have any idea how to remedy/fix this? Another link with people talking about same issue, for reference. https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/16b1d0be-54c6-400d-b902-d8bda587695b/word-2013-print-current-page-always-prints-page-one?forum=officeitpro |
| Hyperlink to a Place in the Document - Headings - can you change the default font styles to a custom font style (with a custom name) Posted: 08 Dec 2014 01:47 PM PST We have made custom tempates for our use - which have all custom font styles, including their names/titles.
When Inserting a Hyperlink>Place in This Document: Under Headings it typically only displays Headings with the default MS font styles named "Heading #" (e.g. "Heading 1", "Heading 2."
Is there a way to change these values to another custom font style?
The only work-around that we have is bookmarking any instances of "Custom Style X" and hyperlinking to the Bookmark instead of the Heading,. |

| Mail Merge Envelopes and Labels problem - Page numbering shows Posted: 08 Dec 2014 12:59 PM PST Suddenly when I perform mail merge labels or envelopes, there is a page number. For labels, it throws off the Avery label templates and must be manually removed and margins need to be reset manually to get a full sheet to print. For envelopes, page number "0" appears behind the frame where the address fields are inserted. Again I must manually remove them. How to fix, please? |
| How can I add fonts? Posted: 08 Dec 2014 12:52 PM PST I currently have Microsoft Word Starter 2010 on my PC and apparently it does not include the Century Gothic Font. I would like to find out the best way to add the Century Gothic font to my PC. I have searched the internet for a free download of this font, and I must say, it is confusing. Is it possible to add the Century Gothic Font to my list of current fonts, or do I have to buy a whole bunch of other stuff that I'll never use just to get it? Regards, Bill |

| Keep having to add the same words to dictionary in Office 2010 Posted: 08 Dec 2014 12:44 PM PST I've been having this problem for about a week now. I can't trace it to any update or system change. I am seeing words (like my company name) show up with the red underline in Word and Outlook. I know they have been in my dictionary for years, but are now coming up as spelling errors. I add them to the dictionary, and the very next time I boot up and type that word there it is again...red underlined. I started noticing this at the same time that all of my pinned recent documents in word and Excel got blown away inexplicably. As I add those, they stick but the spelling stuff is driving me nuts! Any suggestions? |
| Up date links from excel 2003 to word 2013 doc ? Posted: 08 Dec 2014 12:12 PM PST In the past I create and template 2003 excel file with data in each cell that could be linked to a template 2003 word file in a unique folder. As the need arose I copied the folder to a new location and put in new information. I would then use the newly created folder and file as required. The way I set the folders and files up, I necessarily have to change the target location for data in the new word file when I opened the newly created word document. Word 2003 gave me the opportunity to redirect the target file. When I migrated to 2013 I expected to see the same kind of menu opportunity. Now when I open the document that was originally created in 2003 which is now a 2013 word document the program asks if I want to update the links and I answer yes. It then says that it cannot find the target file (which I would have assumed would be the case,) but there is no opportunity to change the target location. And I can find no menu pull-down anywhere that would let me reallocate the target location. Is there anything that is equivalent to the process that was in 2003 |
| Screen colors have changed Posted: 08 Dec 2014 11:13 AM PST I am having difficulties getting my computer screen colors correct. I think the highlighter got stuck on Aqua. I was highlighting in excel earlier, but the color sticking happened later. I also had been holding down on the keypad buttons on the touchpad trying to get the pages to scroll down. Now all my pages are aqua and red lines are peeking through on black. The address bar is aqua, the search bar is aqua, the file icons on the desktop are aqua...well you get the idea. I just don't know how to fix it. Any ideas? |

| Can't drag up margins or change them on the left hand side, how to get it back to normal again? Posted: 08 Dec 2014 06:53 AM PST The margins in my word are undraggable on the left hand side and I can't seem to fix it by choosing any margins. I was just doing stuff on word and then clicked to put a textbox in place and this just happened as I did, I had no idea or view of what I actually may of clicked in the process. The end of my word documents is now cut and I have no ideas how to fix this, it looks like this:
It is really annoying and I literally can't do any work since I can't see the point I'm doing it to, and all new word files look the same. Please help me to fix the problem if you can. List of things already tried: Dragging up margins, Changing layout in page layout, margins, changing margins in page setup |
| Word crash with sharepoint document and copy-pasting image from paint Posted: 08 Dec 2014 04:28 AM PST I have a very annoying issue occurring in specific circumstances (but unfortunately for me that is my daily work), it happens when a document is stored on a SharePoint server. When I copy-paste an image from ms paint into word, often I get the message 'word has encountered an error' but then I can continue, but every 5-10 times Word crashes completely. When the error (not the crash) occurs, there is this nothing-saying error message stated below. Think of it.. my 'floppy disk' is not full, I have 8 GB of ram and I've all the permissions I require. The virus scanner is Symantec Endpoint Protection. All systems are in a world-wide enterprise environment (>20.000 users) – So I guess from that side everything is configured OK. There is a problem saving the file. Usually this is because the disk or floppy disk is too small for the file or is full, RAM memory is low, or there is a permission problem with the drive the file is being saved to. If the amount of disk space for a paging file is low, save the file to another drive. If the RAM memory is low, increase available RAM. If permissions to the drive do not allow you to save to that drive, save the file to another drive or request permissions from the administrator to save files to the drive. Note This error can also occur if the computer is running a version of antivirus software that is incompatible with the Microsoft Office or must be updated. |
| Word hangs when opening HTML file Posted: 08 Dec 2014 02:40 AM PST MS Word 2007 hangs when opening some of the HTML files on few servers\system.

| Word 2013 - Opening a 97 - 2003 Document Posted: 08 Dec 2014 01:20 AM PST I have recently updated from Office 2003 to Office 365. On two of the three family computers the installation went smoothly and everything works as you'd expect, but on the third when I try to open a previously saved .doc document from the file location all I get is an option to save the document as a "Word 2007 Macro-enabled Document (*.docm)" . In addition if I take the long route and Right Click to bring up the menu list and try and open that way the usual top four options of Open, Edit New & Print are missing as well. The first option is Save As followed by the usual list below. HOWEVER: If I go into Word, then open the document through the 'Open Other Documents' option it opens normally. So far I have Copied one of the word documents to one of the other PC's and it opens without problems, so I know it's a setting issue on the effected PC. Changed the default program to something else, them gone back and changed it to Word. Same old problem. I've gone into Program Defaults and checked the necessary tick boxes are ticked. They are. All three PC's in the house run Windows 8.1, all have the same basic set up and when I installed 365 all appeared to be the same. Somewhere there is a option that has been ticked or not. Any suggestions where to look or options to solve this problem. Nick |

| Form letter with date-dependent variables? Posted: 07 Dec 2014 07:52 PM PST I'm quite new to Microsoft Office, so please bear with me if I don't explain it well and/or use some inexplicable terms. I have a form letter of sorts in which I would like certain part of the content to change daily, as in: Send a postcard to [VARIABLE1], a letter to [VARIABLE2], a text message to [VARIABLE3], and an email to [VARIABLE4]. [VARIABLE1] is a list of about 200 names. [VARIABLE2] contains about eight phrases (about 100 characters each, if that matters); it would also change daily but, of course, it would cycle through much more quickly. 3 and 4 would have one for each day of the year. What is the best way to accomplish what I'm looking for? I get the impression that I can store the variables and the date I'd like to associate with them in an Excel workbook with 5 columns, but I don't know anything about the syntax I'd need to use in the Word fields. Thanks. |

| Missing Scroll Bar in MS Office Word 2010 Posted: 07 Dec 2014 05:58 PM PST My Word 2010 program was "broken" in that the top and bottom default margins for document page were missing. An outside company "fixed" this problem, but now when I open Word 2010, there is no scroll bar! Is there a way to restore the scroll bar? The scroll bars in the other MS Office 2010 programs are fine. Only the one in Word is missing. I tried to go into Programs to Repair it, and even uninstalled the whole program and re-installed it, but to no avail. |
