= SUMMARY =

Page 56 of the “Using Microsoft Works” version 2.0 manual incorrectly states that if there is a margin of more than 1 inch between the text and the top of the page, the header will print 1 inch from the top of the page.

If the margin between the text and the top of the page is more than 2 inches, the header will print 1 inch from the top of the page. However, if the top margin is less than 2 inches but greater than 1 inch, the header will be centered between the top of the page and the document text.

This information is also true for footer and bottom margins.

= MORE INFORMATION =

When printing to a LaserWriter, if the margin is less than 0.6 inch for letter-sized paper and 0.9 inch for legal-sized paper, the header/footer will not print or will be cut off. The header/footer will also not be centered between the text and the margin unless Larger Print Area is selected. Printing with Larger Print Area selected allows margins as small as 0.3 inch for letter-sized paper and 0.5 inch for legal-sized paper.

To select Larger Print Area, follow these steps:


 * 1) From the File menu, choose Page Setup.
 * 2) Click the Options button.
 * 3) Select Larger Print Area (Fewer Downloadable Fonts).
 * 4) Click OK.
