= SUMMARY =

In Word versions 4.0 and 5.0, the top border of text with paragraph borders applied may not print or be visible on your screen if the text is immediately preceded by a paragraph formatted as hidden text (such as PostScript text).

This behavior occurs because the top border of the paragraph is applied to the paragraph that precedes it.

For example, if both paragraphs are selected and you format them with Plain Box paragraph borders, the top border will be applied to the PostScript paragraph instead of to the following paragraph.

Because the PostScript style is hidden text, if the Show Hidden Text option is turned off in the Preferences dialog box, neither the paragraph nor its formatting will be displayed on the screen. The hidden paragraph (including any formatting that accompanies it) will not print unless the Print Hidden Text option is selected in the Print dialog box.
