= SUMMARY =

If you use a WorksWizard to create a document with one of the printers listed below as the chosen printer, the document is created as an 8.5-by-11-inch portrait size page. However, the page orientation for the printer will remain set on landscape, which is 11 by 8.5 inches, and the document will not print correctly.


 * Laser Writer Select 300 versions 1.0, 1.1 or 1.2
 * Color StyleWriter Pro version 1.5
 * Apple StyleWriter II
 * Apple StyleWriter 1200 with driver versions 2.0, 2.1.1

= MORE INFORMATION =

Normally, when you create a document such as a certificate using the Certificate WorksWizard, the page will appear in landscape orientation.

= WORKAROUND =


 * 1) Install the standard LaserWriter printer driver from the System disks.
 * 2) From the Apple menu, choose Chooser.
 * 3) From the Chooser, select LaserWriter as the active printer.
 * 4) Start Microsoft Works 4.0.
 * 5) Create a Works Wizard document.
 * 6) From the Apple menu, choose Chooser.

You can now print or view the document as normal.
