The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Works for the Macintosh, versions 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 ———————————————————————-

= SUMMARY =

When you are printing Word Processor documents from Microsoft Works to an Apple ImageWriter printer, the margins may not come out the same as you specified in the Page Setup dialog box.

For example, if the left and right margins are set to 1 inch in Page Setup and the indents are at 0 and 6.5 inches on the ruler, the actual right margin prints at about 1.75 inches.

= WORKAROUND =

To work around this problem, select Tall Adjusted in the Page Setup dialog box. The Tall Adjusted command allows the printer to print an image that is similar to what is displayed on the screen, rather than what the printer interprets.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Works version 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
