VISUAL MIDDLE OF PAGE
Hi, I am using MS Word to make signage for my store. I am doing a good job of
this but what to have the sale price be the focal point somewhere close to the middle of the page visually. How do I know where the middle of the page is? I usually have something like " As advertised" above the price and then the description of the product and regular price below the special price. I want this to be pleasing to the eye to attract attention. Thanks for you help. Rob |

If you want it to be "pleasing to the eye," then center it visually, using
Spacing Before; don't try to use Word's Center vertical alignment, which will center it mathematically, but it will appear too low. -- Suzanne S.

Thanks Suzanne, That is what I have been doing and after some tweaking have
gotten a pretty good eye for it. I had forgotten how to vertically align the page but was reminded per your post. Thanks for your help. "Suzanne S.

You're welcome. When I do use Center alignment, I usually add Spacing After
to the last paragraph to compensate. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "Robster61" wrote in message ...
