It says here (here being Using Office 97 Special Edition Ed.Bott, Boyce and
Wempen, pub. QUE and usually reliable) that you must make sure before you print
that you select only the desired level (Heading3 or whatever) ALSO, dont print
from Print Preview cos that doesnt work. ALSO (and I quote) "If you have
configured Word to show only the first line of a paragraph in Outline view,
Word prints the entire paragraph even if only one line is showing....."
(p.213).

Hope this helps,
