PRINT PREVIEW DISTORTION
I created a CD label in Publisher that employed a single spiral figure that I
copied and pasted multiple times to encircle the hole at the center of the CD label. I very carefully spaced these, and when I look at the label in print preview they appear evenly spaced. However, when the label is PRINTED, the spirals are not evenly spaced at all. This is very annoying, because I am designing "blind" by not being able to accurately see in Print Preview what is going to be printed . Ideas? -- William

PRINT PREVIEW DISTORTION
Select your spiral, right-click, format object, size tab. Is the object really
round? Is the object a true spiral (coil) or concentric circles? Can you ungroup if they are circles and resize? -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "William" wrote in message ...
