Bugs in Word 2007?
Hi,
I think I found 2 bugs in Word 2007. Bug #1 (Book Fold printing) If the document is saved in DOCX format, printing a document with "Book fold" setting is printed incorrectly. The last page is not printed and the first page is printed on the left side instead of on the right side. If the same document is saved in DOC format, everything will be printed out correctly. Bug #2 (Rotated pictures spacing) If the document is save in DOCX format and any picture is rotated 90 degree or 270 degree, there are large spacing to the left and to the right of the picture. If the same document is saved in DOC format, everything is displayed correctly. Any confirmation is appreciated. Thank you. |

Bugs in Word 2007?
I'm not seeing Bug #1, but I'm seeing a variation of Bug #2.
Regardless of picture rotation, when I include a picture (wrapping set to square or tight), there is a gap where the picture should appear -- a blank retangularish area -- the the picture appears either behind or in front of the text in the following page. I'm not big on wasting paper, so I performed the test printing to both XPS and PDF, and got the identical results. When working in compatibility mode, the bug does not occur. I will report this to Microsoft, to see if they can replicate. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Programatix" wrote in message ...

Could you please try out Bug #1? It is simple.
1) Go to Page Setup and setup the "Multiple Pages" setting to "Book fold". 2) Insert 4 pages. 3) Insert page number. 4) Print. It suppose to print out the pages correctly (which can be folded). But if saved as DOCX, page 1 (which should appear on the right side) appeared on the left side. Page 8 (or any last page, which should appear on the left side) is not printed at all. If saved as DOC, no problem. Correct printout (doc) --------------------- | | | | page | page | | 4 | 1 | | | | --------------------- --------------------- | | | | page | page | | 2 | 3 | | | | --------------------- Incorrect printout (docx) --------------------- | | | | page | empty | | 1 | | | | | --------------------- --------------------- | | | | page | page | | 2 | 3 | | | | --------------------- "Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote in message ...

Doesn't happen here. When I try that, I get identical results with a ..docx as I get with a .doc. Perhaps someone else can try it, as well.
Regarding the other bug, it was reported to Microsoft back in February by someone else. Hopefully, that and some other .docx graphics oddities can be fixed before Office 14. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Programatix" wrote in message ...
