MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

Microsoft Word will not show page 2 of a document that contains many absolutely positioned graphics. For example, a document that contains 15 graphic files linked into Word and all formatted the same using Format Position (appears on the screen as “pOsition”) will exhibit this problem.

= MORE INFORMATION =

Objects that are formatted with identical Format Position properties are considered to be the same object by Word. That is, these objects all inherit the keep together property when they are formatted with the Format Position command.

Because these graphics are considered to be one long object and Word does not split objects at the bottom of the page, the last object to fit on the page is clipped. The other objects are ignored and Word cannot proceed past page 1.

To avoid having postioned objects being formatted as keep together, place normal paragraphs between each graphic or insert hard page breaks or division breaks between the graphics.
