Text moves on saving
Using Publisher 2002, when I save a document of several
pages, approximately an inch or so of text jumps from one page to the next page in linked text boxes. When I go back to the previous page, text usually reverts to the proper place. Sometimes, I have to delete a blank line to make the text come back, then later I will have to put that line back in. When I save again, text jumps again. |

Did you set up your own text box margins? 2. Does this happen if you have chosen a different printer as your saved printer? (if you have a secondary printer) -- Brian Kvalheim Microsoft Publisher MVP http://www.mvps.org/publisher ~pay it foward~ This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. |

Hi Brian I set my own text box margins and am using my own template, with my own text styles. I tried another printer. I usually print on a network printer and set it for a local printer. The same problem occurred. Jan |

Are you noticing that if you double check your margins that you set, are those margins changing from the settings you designated. -- Brian Kvalheim Microsoft Publisher MVP http://www.mvps.org/publisher ~pay it foward~ This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. |

Hi Brian, The template I use has evolved through various versions of Publisher. In looking more closely at it, I see some variations. My template starts with 7 blank pages, with one large text frame on each page. The first three pages have a text box margin of .04". The next four pages have a margin of .0396". These last text frames are also slightly larger on the page. I likely started with a three page template and later added another four pages. In comparing my present document with the template, I can see no changes in either the text box margin, nor in the size of text boxes, except where I shortened the box to include a graphic at the bottom of the page when a particular sub-topic ended. I often shorten frames for the convenience of sub-topics. I seldom alter text frame margins. The document I am working on was proving particularly difficult yesterday. Finally it would not readjust to proper layout even when I returned to the first page. So I had to delete a blank line on the first page. Since then I have had no text jumping onto the next page. (I have deleted lines in the past only to find out that I eventually needed to put them back so the text would line up with the illustration.) Thanks, Jan |

If this is a super old template getting used over and over, you should try to create a new template with new text boxes etc. Over time, this template may become corrupt and display such odd behavior as you see now. -- Brian Kvalheim Microsoft Publisher MVP http://www.mvps.org/publisher ~pay it foward~ This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. |

I will try making a new template. Unfortunately I have about a dozen or more text styles so it will take a while and will have to wait until the two documents I'm presently working on. Oh, well.
Thanks for your suggestions. |
