SYMPTOMS
In page layout view, if a document is formatted for two or more newspaper- style columns and a new paragraph that is formatted for .3 to .9 line spacing before begins at the top of the second or succeeding page of columnar text, the first line of all columns (except the first column) appear clipped. However, the text is printed correctly.
