= SUMMARY =

If your side-by-side paragraphs in Microsoft Word for the Macintosh versions 3.x are not printing or previewing side by side, check that the following things are true:


 * 1) The left indent on the second of the two paragraphs must be to the right of the left indent for the first paragraph.
 * 2) The right paragraph must be the second of the two paragraphs.
 * 3) The right paragraph must be indented using the left-indent triangles on the ruler rather than using tabs or spaces.

= MORE INFORMATION =

Word beginning with version 4.0, have a table feature that eliminates most of the need for side-by-side formatting and makes your information appear side by side even in galley (regular display) view. For more information about tables, see pages 311-340 in the “Microsoft Word User’s Guide” version 5.0 manual or pages 362-375 in the “Reference to Microsoft Word” version 4.0 manual.
