Portrait Printing in Landscape Form
I have a computer in my office that runs Office 2007. Everytime a co-worker
prints in Word his document prints in landscape. I have checked the settings and everything is labeled portrait. When you go into Print Preview it is the same thing. The document is appearing in portrait form but cuts off the first third or so of the page. When you change the layout to landscape, everything shows up just fine. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you. |

Portrait Printing in Landscape Form
I think you'll find that Word's page orientation setting conflicts with the
one in the printer driver software. In the Print dialog, click the Properties button next to the printer name. The Properties dialog is different for each printer (it's provided by the printer driver, not by Word), but somewhere in there you'll find a setting for the orientation. If it's set to Landscape, change it to Portrait. I'm not sure this is universal, but it's my experience that settings you change in the Properties dialog when reached through Word's Print dialog last only for the current session. To make a permanent change, click the Windows Start menu Settings Printers and Faxes, right-click the printer and choose Properties, and make the change there. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
