Re: Weird Word '07 Issue: Page Breaks Differ

[Lauren <lauren -at- writeco -dot- net>]

How do the documents print on the different machines?

Perhaps your work machine is using a font substitution or has different 
display settings then the other machines.  Some printers do not have all 
of the fonts a machine may have and some spool settings affect what 
fonts will print.

As Monique suggested, the print drivers could be causing the issue.  
Office printers are often shared and have changes in printing settings 
to accommodate multiple users.  These changes can change what will print 
and what you will see in print layout.

If you need to manually set page breaks, then you can use hard breaks as 
Chris suggested or change paragraph settings to have a page break before 
the paragraph, keep lines together, or keep the paragraph with the next 
paragraph.

I would not change anything until I compared the printouts from each 
machine to see where the breaks actually occur.
