Headers & Margins
Me again!
Nobody seems to be nterested in my little old query but as it's driving me nuts I decided to post again and hope someone bites! Here it is: Can anyone explain the relationship between Header margins and page margins? I would like to use as much of an A4 page for printing as I can. So I changed the top and bottom page margins to 2 cm & reduced the header & Footer from 1.97 cm to 1 cm. The result is that the bottom margins now appear to be 5 cm wide thereby defeating the object of messing with the margins. What am I doing wrong? I know SOMEBODY out there can help!!!!!!!!! Thanks Jackie D .. |

To set the maximum printable area, set the page setup margin settings all to
zero. When you OK it you'll get a warning message about margins being out of range. Select 'Fix' and the margins will be set to the limits allowed by the printer driver. If you then select View Header/Footer an appropriate small amount of height will be revealed to allow the inclusion of a header and footer. You can drag the vertical margin indicators to reduce the sizes, but you will not be able to drag farther than the header/footer content and the driver will allow. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Jackie D wrote: Me again!
