troubleshoot -print margins do not match print view margins -HELP

Posted: 09 May 2013 04:03 PM PDT

I have MS Office Professional 2010. When I format a document and print (any program) the printed document is 1/4" off to the left. My printer is HP OfficeJet 7410xi. it prints from other programs just fine. today I ran the printer internal diagnostic test and there is no issue with the margins being off.  Office has always printed off to the side but I just adjusted the margins if it was an important doc. I'm just needing to do it more often so I am hopping some one has found a solution. thanks -Jan

I have Office 2007 and it came with 3 product keys. I have used all three, but need to replace my main PC and would like to be able to reuse the Office product I have without having to purchase another Office. I have the product key.

Is this possible to do?

Gruss Christian!

I think that the main problem that exists today (OOo 2.2) is that in the
task pane you can select a Page Master, but if you want to modify it you
have to access the menu "View > Master > Slide Master". Using within the
same user interface two different terms to refer to the same object is for
me what causes the confusion in most of the users.

I am not sure I understand the problem you mention. Notes master is already
in use (View > Master > Notes master) and I am not suggesting to replace
this term. The notes master defines the layout of the Notes page and I do
not think there is a consistency issue here.
If you are suggesting that the page master in the Task pane is different
from the slide master, then I am afraid I will have to ask you to elaborate
as it does not seem to be the case.

As for the handouts master, I could not find this functionality. The only
modification to the handout layout is performed manually (no master
involved) or by means of the layout tab in the task pane.

In summary my suggested RFE is to replace any occurrency of "Master Page"
with "Slide Master" and "Master Pages" with "Slide Masters".

[discuss] Einstruction/CPS 4.0 suggestion/question

Posted: 17 Apr 2007 06:49 PM PDT

 

It really depends on _how_ Einstruction works with powerpoint. Maybe
it just creates files for powerpoint to display?
If so, you are in great shape, because OO does a pretty fine job of
opening files from PowerPoint.

If it somehow hooks into PowerPoint, then probably impossible without
support from the programmers of Einstruction.

Good luck

Hello Kevin,

Thanks for the advice. Your suggestion triggered my memory of having run
across this problem once before when I purchased my first HP 4200 printer. I
changed the driver to one from a 4050 HP printer and the problem was solved.
Good start to my Sunday morning. I appreciate the quick
response.............Mark

Importing data

Thanks, it works, of course. I tested it with a .tsv export of Works
Calendar, after which I spent some time formatting, hiding columns of
unwanted data, etc. Then, after printing, I Edit>Select All>Delete 'd
and saved my work as a template.

However, from that point, the way to get the stuff in to a formatted
database is to open the .tsv or other comma-, or tab-delimited file in
Notepad, Edit>Select All, and Copy. Paste it in the first cell of the
spreadsheet. Using a File>Open will simply create a new database with
the information and it won't be formatted.

Thanks for the reply.

Re: person receiving the email with the attachment can not open my

Try this:

Open or create your document using Works Word processor.

Next, save the document into My Documents folder by clicking File on the
menu bar then clicking Save As.

In the Save As dialog popup for Save in: My Documents should display, leave
as is. Under File name: give your file a name. Under Save as type: click
the down arrow and select .rtf (Rich Text Format), click Save.

Note: most word processors can open a document with .rtf (Rich Text Format)
extension.

Close Works Word processor.

Open your mail program, if Outlook Express, click Create Mail, attached the
above saved document to your mail and send it.

Let us know the result,

How to start numbering on page 2?

It was simple and "user friendly." Now I've tried Word Help and online help, and it's as if nobody has ever heard of doing such a thing.

Or for some reason I'm just not seeing the answer.

Again, I want to add page numbers to a document, without "1" appearing on page 1. I thinks that's a common practice.

Thanks for your help.

Microsoft Word - Problem printing tables, text wrapping

Microsoft Word - Problem printing tables, text wrapping


Problem printing tables, text wrapping

Posted: 10 May 2013 07:25 AM PDT

(Sorry for this convoluted explanation of the problem I'm having, but this is the clearest I could explain it! If there's a way for me to upload this document somewhere for people to review, I can do that. Thanks!)

One of my co-workers is trying to print a document she created on Word 2010. The document contains several separate tables, some of which spread across the page horizontally and others that take up part of the page vertically. There are also a couple of text boxes on the page. Here's a diagram of what the page looks like (T= Table, B=text Box, Letters in BOLD are where the problems are)

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

TTTTTTTT        BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
TTTTTTTT        BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
TTTTTTTT        BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
TTTTTTTT

TTTTTTTT       TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
TTTTTTTT       TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
TTTTTTTT       TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
TTTTTTTT       TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB

The text in Bold does not print. I believe what is happening is that, when I send the page to print, the text is somehow being moved about a line down within the table, hiding it from view. (If I make the fonts larger, I can see the very top of the text on the bottom of each cell, or if I make the text a superscript, it raises the fonts enough so it's visible when I print.) Please note that when I print the file to a PDF, I get the same result, so I'm fairly confident the problem is not with the printer.

I found a solution, but that caused a formatting problem. If I turn the text wrapping option to None, the text prints. The problem with this solution is that if I turn the text wrap off for the table on the far left, it will not let me place any of the tables or the text box to the right of it (it shifts them to the next page.) On the other hand, if I turn the text wrap off for the tables on the right hand side but leave text wrapping on for the table on the left, formatting is fine, and everything prints except for the text in the table on the left.

Any suggestions??? This is driving me bonkers!!

Constructing custom bullets

Posted: 09 May 2013 05:56 PM PDT

In Word 2000, one had the ability to specify the amount (in inches, etc.) of the indents, both for the bullet and for the text that followed immediately.

 

In Word 2010, there is a bullet menu on the Home tab, but the drop-down menu does not contain a means for customizing the bullet/text placement.  This capability must certainly still exist, except that I have not been clever enough to find it!

How to replace all bold phrases with the same phrase with ** before and after?

Posted: 09 May 2013 12:32 PM PDT

Hi,

I'm creating a Wikidot (wiki platform) website and when you create a new Page and paste in text it loses all Bold and Italics. You then have to go back and put ** before and after every part of the text that had been Bold.

I want to use Replace in Word prior to copying and pasting to find the bold phrases and then replace them with the same phrase, but with the ** before and ** after the phrase, rather than manually do it.

Title title title

becomes

**Title title title**


Does anyone know how this could be done?

Why text boundaries changed in 2013

Posted: 09 May 2013 10:02 AM PDT

Hiya Fellas,

I've a question to do about the new Word version.

Why, when I work with a 97-2003 .doc document of Word, It shows it normally, like the next picture.


But... When I want to work with a 2007-2013 .docx document, appears this:



It doesn't happened with the older versions, just with this 2013. You could try, and tell me if I'm lying.

If wanna activate these text boundaries, must go to File > Options > Advanced > Show Document Content > check "Show text boundaries".

Try pressing "enter" in the document, and you will see the same like in the above image.

Can you tell me what is wrong here?

Thank you.

MS WORD Print Layout - How to change appearance of background screen either side of the white page of text in WORD 2003 & WORD 2013

Posted: 08 May 2013 04:01 AM PDT

I have two computers, one is PC bought 2003, WinXP WORD 2003, other is Laptop 2013, Win8, WORD 2013.

 

My Question is :-

 

When using WORD I prefer using the View Print Layout/Reading Layout which shows my work against a screen background, how can I change the appearance of the background colour?

 

On my PC (WORD2003) some ~ 8 years ago I managed somehow but now can't remember how ? to change it to grey and would like to now change the colour again and would also like to change the Laptop (WORD2013) in a similar way so both computers have the same appearance.

 

I have seen many help items for changing the page colour, but this is not what I am asking - it is the appearance of the screen background colour outside the actual Word document which I would like to modify.

 

The Laptop Word document currently appears as a white page surrounded by white background and is like working in a snow drift and not very easy on the eyes.

 

A step by step technical know how of how to adjust the Word 2003/2013 set up would be much appreciated.

 

My first question ever online ends: thankyou anyone who can help with this !

You can get the downoads from here. I'm not sure but I think this issue is
going to be fixed with MSI 3.0 available in Windows XP SP2 when it RTMs to
the web around and about August 25 via Windows Update. Meanwhile, you can
access the updates directly and easily from here:

That mostly makes sense to me. However, I don't think that I fully
understand.

If we maintain paper records for each computer, and say purchase 200
licenses under one VLK, and purchase another 50 under another VLK, Must I
create two installations, one for the 200 licenses, and one for the 50? Or
can I maintain a single installation, with a single VLK, and install it on
all 250 machines?

Hahaha, no i specified the variables

msiexec /a X:\Office XP Pro\Pro.msi /p C:\kb832671\i forget the name.msp
SHORTFILENAMES=TRUE

I'm not looking at it now so I don't remember the msp file, but thats' the
command.

Now I'm doing this on win2k, but that shouldn't matter right? I mean the
msiexec command works the same on 2000 or XP...the only thing i can think
and i'll try changing it, the name i used for the folder office is installed
to, I'll rename it to something in 8.3 format..

Thanks

1) You cannot upgrade products of the same version line - it is not
supported.

2) Why do you need the key? You don't have to install the qualifying
product, merely insert it when prompted.

Office 2003 SP1 Update gets HotFix error

Typically this step addresses that problem, too (they have the same cause).
See the KB article at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;304498 for other
potential causes of Office Update detection failures.

can't reinstall office xp pro after deleting from windows xp syste

Hello Danna,

The log file information stated you tried installing Office XP SP-2.
Instead you need to install SP-1 first for Office XP. But, you mentioned
that you have deleted the Office installation files already. At this
point, you may try this. Please note that the method involves editing the
registry; so make sure to back up the registry.

1) Back-up your registry 322755 HOW TO: Backup, Edit, and Restore the

6. After a reboot, try to install Office XP; then run office update using

Please try the suggestions and let me know the status.

ATI has good video drivers for linux. Go to www.ati.com and then download the
linux drivers and install them. I get this error too with my nvidia card when
I update the kernel and forget to reinstall the video drivers for it. You
have to install the 3D video drivers for your card and when you update the
kernel, reinstall them as they are kernel version dependant. It is not a big
deal and is a quick and painless process.
