Subject:RE: Word and printing problems From:"Margaret Secara" <maggiros -at- adelphia -dot- net> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Sat, 8 Dec 2001 11:33:19 -0800
So it IS printing them. Just not all of them? It could be your printer. If it
can't buffer the whole file at once, it just does what it can. In my case, it
will do the first 4 pages and the last page, for some reason. So I print my
longer stuff by designating a page range. Usually no more than 10 pages at a
time. It's a pain, but it's less of a pain than buying a better printer :)
Also, all that transfering and recopying can introduce a lot of baggage into a
Word file over time. For any file that still gives you trouble--or heck, do it
for all of them--copy everything BUT the last paragraph mark into a new file.
It's the sovereign remedy for a lot of Word weirdness.
Sounds like you have a fascinating project. Good luck with it!
