Pages get larger when adding text to word...
I am trying to fill out an application on a disk I received in word. But
when ever I add text in the paragraph it adds on extra lines on to the end of the page. So if I add in 10 lines to the page I end up with the end of the page ending in the middle of the 2nd page. Any help... |

Hi zlak-
Not sure, but it sounds like you may be dealing with a 'form' file which has been very poorly designed for it's intended purpose. Make sure the file is copied to your hard drive. Open the file and turn on the non-printing characters (¶ button on the Standard Toolbar). If you see a vertical string of them running down the left margin in the area you need to put info, like this ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ ¶ you need to _replace_ them 1-for-1 with the lines of content you want to put in. They are empty paragraphs which are getting forced down one line at a time whenever you press Enter. HTH |:) "zlak" wrote: I am trying to fill out an application on a disk I received in word.
